Blue Zones puts the world’s best practices in longevity and well-being to work in people’s lives. The company was founded by Dan Buettner, an internationally recognized researcher, explorer, and New York Times bestselling author and National Geographic Fellow. His National Geographic cover story on longevity, “The Secrets of Living Longer” was one of their top-selling issues in history and made him a finalist for a National Magazine Award.

Since 2009, we've partnered with Healthways in the Blue Zones Project®. Our evidence-based program uses the secrets of the Blue Zone regions to transform communities into areas where the healthy choice is easy and people live longer with a higher quality of life.

The Blue Zones Project® is dedicated to creating a nation of Blue Zones communities – healthier cities, states and businesses where people live longer, better. For more information, please visit www.BlueZones.com
