VIEW Open Access Extending Healthy Ageing: Nutrient Sensitive Pathway and Centenarian Population Sergio Davinelli1, D Craig Willcox2 and Giovanni Scapagnini1*
Davinelli et al. Immunity & Ageing 2012, 9:9 http://www.immunityageing.com/content/9/1/9 IMMUNITY & AGEING REVIEW Open Access Extending healthy ageing: nutrient sensitive pathway and centenarian population Sergio Davinelli1, D Craig Willcox2 and Giovanni Scapagnini1* Abstract Ageing is a challenge for any living organism and human longevity is a complex phenotype. With increasing life expectancy, maintaining long-term health, functionality and well-being during ageing has become an essential goal. To increase our understanding of how ageing works, it may be advantageous to analyze the phenotype of centenarians, perhaps one of the best examples of successful ageing. Healthy ageing involves the interaction between genes, the environment, and lifestyle factors, particularly diet. Besides evaluating specific gene- environment interactions in relation to exceptional longevity, it is important to focus attention on modifiable lifestyle factors such as diet and nutrition to achieve extension of health span. Furthermore, a better understanding of human longevity may assist in the design of strategies to extend the duration of optimal human health. In this article we briefly discuss relevant topics on ageing and longevity with particular focus on dietary patterns of centenarians and nutrient-sensing pathways that have a pivotal role in the regulation of life span. Finally, we also discuss the potential role of Nrf2 system in the pro-ageing signaling emphasizing its phytohormetic activation.

The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer from the People Who've Lived
THE BLUE ZONES: LESSONS FOR LIVING LONGER FROM THE PEOPLE WHO’VE LIVED THE LONGEST By Dan Buettner Study Guide by Ken Bingham Preface 1. According to Dan Buettner, “Scientific studies suggest that only about 25 percent of how long we live is dictated by genes... The other 75 percent is determined by our lifestyles and the everyday choices we make. It follows that if we optimize our lifestyles, we can maximize our life expectancies within our biological limits” (xxii). In effect, maximizing our life expectancies is the goal of “Blue Zones,” and, since you’re reading this guide, it’s one of your goals as well. So, before we begin on this journey together, let’s first take some time to look through where you stand here at the outset. Start a Health Journal, and take some notes on your current lifestyle: • How much do you sleep? Do you ever need to take medications to help you sleep? • What are your eating habits? Traditionally, what do you consume for breakfast, lunch, dinner? Do you eat three meals a day, four? When are your biggest meals? What do you eat for snacks? How often do you snack? • What are your drinking habits? How much alcohol do you consume a day, a week? How much red wine, beer, mixed drinks? How much water per day? How much coffee, tea? • In how many days of the past twenty have you experienced anxiety? What are the current stressors in your life? How much time to do you spend per day concerned about these, concerned about the past, the future? • How do you spend your social time? Read, watch television, go to the gym? How often during a usual week do engage in group social activities? • How much do you exercise? What kind of exercises do you get involved in? 2. -

Create Your Own “Blue Zone” with Walk Kansas
Create your own “Blue Zone” with Walk Kansas Places in the world where people live longer and healthier, without medication or disability, are known as blue zones. Here, it is common to see people live to 90 or even 100 years old. In partnership with National Geographic, journalist Dan Buettner thoroughly researched and identified these five blue zones: Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia (Italian island); Loma Linda, California; Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula; and an isolated Greek island, Ikaria. Why do people in these areas live so long and so well? The answer is simple — lifestyle. Their lifestyle includes a healthful diet, daily exercise, and a low-stress style of living that focuses on family, purpose, religion, and meaning. Simplicity seems to be a thread that runs through the lifestyle of those living in these blue zones. Let’s take a look at the lifestyle characteristics more closely. What does a healthy diet look like in blue zone regions? Their diets are loaded with vegetables, fruits, fish, and nuts. They eat very little meat, sugar, fat, and processed foods. They do enjoy red wine, along with goat’s milk and local teas as beverages. Studies show that heart disease and diabetes are linked to a lifetime of obesity and poor diet. People in blue zones eat healthfully most of the time and, not surprisingly, they suffer from these major diseases less frequently or not at all. Another common theme across all blue zones is a daily routine of exercise. You won’t see treadmills or fitness centers in these places, however. Those living in blue zones don’t need to artificially incorporate exercise into their lives. -
