Searching for Japan's Shortest Red Zone #longevity #healthspan #optimalliving
For the past two years I've been travelling across Japan, letting longevity data guide my journey.
This time the numbers have brought me to Shizuoka Prefecture—the prefecture with Japan's shortest Red Zone, the years between health span and lifespan.
What makes people here stay healthier for longer? That's what I'm here to discover.
This is the beginning of another chapter in my search for the lessons behind healthy aging in Japan.
