TT: Are the Blue Zones a Hoax?

Whenever something starts to gain popularity, there will always be naysayers and skeptics who fail to see the bigger picture.

Personally, I like to keep an open mind and carefully review the information to see if there are any useful insights that can benefit myself, my family, and my community.

The Blue Zones have recently gained a lot of popularity, but what exactly are they, and can the information they provide be integrated into our daily lives, or is it just another fad?

So on today’s #CabralConcept 2925, I want to dive deeper into what the Blue Zones are and the research behind them so you can decide for yourself if the Blue Zones are a hoax. Enjoy the show, and feel free to share your thoughts!
