Live to 100 Lunch and Learn

LUNCH & LEARN @ THE LIBRARY! Part of the "Wellness Wednesdays in Winterset" series, the library will offer various Lunch & Learn events May-October. LIVE TO 100 What are the secrets to a long and healthy life? U. S. life expectancy (76 for men and 81 for women) ranks 26th in the world. Recently, the National Geographic Society identified hot spots of longevity around the world known as "Blue Zones." These areas have high concentrations of 100-year-olds and clusters of people who had grown old without diseases like heart problems, obesity, cancer, or diabetes. Researcher and author Terry Fisk will explain how you can calculate your life expectancy and what lifestyle changes you can make to increase your odds of living to be 100. Topics discussed include exercise, intermittent fasting, meditation, and whole-food, plant-based diets.
