Do you want to stay sick-free even when you are in your 80s and 90s?Then, you may want to consider a Japanese method since Japan has mostly had the lowest mortality rate in the world for the last ten years.

Okinawa being the longest-lived prefecture, is one of them. In Japan, Okinawa was regarded as the land of longevity back in the 1980s when it was ranked high in the national ranking. Recently prefectures like Nagano and Shiga have ranked within the top three and gained the reputation of being long-lived prefectures.

Ikigai is another one. It is nothing to do with the popular Venn diagram. It isn’t a framework in Japan.
