The longevity foods of Okinawa 🌺

For generations, Okinawan elders have lived longer than almost anyone on earth, and the secret sits right on their plate: simple, colorful, and full of plants.

Swipe through the everyday staples 👉 
-Vivid purple sweet potato they call imo
-Tofu eaten as freely as bread is in France
-Gut friendly miso
- Savory shiitake that help fuel the immune system, -Golden turmeric
- Goya (bitter melon) that helps steady blood sugar.

Then keep going for three of my favorite Okinawan recipes. My go to is tofu steak with miso mushrooms 🍄, and a five minute red miso soup and a ten minute tofu and veggie champuru are waiting for you too.

Eat well, move naturally, stay connected. That is the Okinawan recipe for a long life.

Save this and share it with someone you love 🌿 Tell me which recipe you would cook first 👇
