Check out this interesting "listicle" about food rules from Blue Zone centenarians:

Nothing too new, but it's a good reminder of the importance of good nutrition (and how good nutrition is actually quite simple)!
Some of the themes remind me of Michael Pollans' rules, check those out here: https://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/news ... r-eating#1
Just found this article that touches upon this theme - check out "4 Items You Should Always Have in Your Pantry, According to the Longest Living People in the World" https://www.wellandgood.com/blue-zones-pantry-items/
- cheat sheet: beans, greens, grains, nuts

That seems a bit high.
But then if 10% of what we eat was meat and fish, perhaps not that high after all.
What about milk products? Beverages? Eggs?
I think more like 80 / 20 would work.
