Could the secret to living longer be as simple as what’s for dinner? Sanjay sits down with explorer and bestselling author Dan Buettner to discuss the science behind longevity, why taste (not willpower) drives healthy habits, and how affordable, plant-based recipes inspired by the world’s longest-living communities can help you thrive. Plus, hear how AI cracked the code on America’s favorite flavor trends -- and inspired the recipes in his new cookbook, The Blue Zones Kitchen: One Pot Meals.
