- Aplicar a “regra dos 80%” na hora de se alimentar. Nas Zonas Azuis, é comum reduzir o consumo de comida no final da tarde e/ou início da noite. Em Okinawa, há mais de 2 500 anos, eles praticam o “Hara hachi bu”, uma espécie de “mantra” verbalizado antes das refeições para que se lembrem de parar de comer ao alcançarem 80% de sua saciedade.

- Ter atenção às escolhas alimentares* Esses povos costumam seguir uma dieta mediterrânea à base de plantas, azeite de oliva, mel, grãos integrais, vegetais e frutas.
