Beauty: Hylauronic Acid (Hyaluronan)- this video from Youtube deserve it’s own post. Connie Chung reports from Yuzuri Hara, Japan. It was first broadcast on November 2, 2000 on ABC.
There is a town in Japan where people live into their 90s and beyond. In this particular small town of Japan, they don’t farm rice due to the terrain. Instead they grow potatoes, the sticky white potato (konyaku) and small taro roots (satoimo). The diet of local root vegetables are rich in Hyaluronic Acid The villagers also eat very little meat and eat mostly starchy food and green veggies. They also continue to do what they do, whether it’s farming or chores despite their old age. That I think is also the key to a long life and happiness.
