BIGGS
The American Pie and Orange Is the New Black actor, 41, stars in the upcoming TV series Outmatched (Jan. 23 on Fox). It’s about a blue-collar couple, Mike (Biggs) and Cay (Maggie Lawson), trying to raise four kids, three of whom happen to be certified geniuses.
In real life, you’re the father of two young sons [with wife, actress Jenny Mollen]. Does Outmatched remind you of your home life? The biggest similarity is that I’m learning every day how to communicate with my kids. I constantly feel like they’re outsmarting me. I’m always a step behind. Do you have a funny parenting story? A while back, we had someone over to watch the kids. And we literally just went downstairs, hung out and waited for them to fall asleep. We just needed a break. The weird—duplicitous or otherwise—things you do when you’re a parent will come into play in the show, but on a funnier level. How hard was it to shake the raunchy American Pie image and move on with your career? I found that, as the years went on, the less I tried fighting it and the more I just embraced it, the easier everything became. That’s true of every aspect of my life. Acceptance has become a real Was he a genius in part of my philosophy as I’ve gotten high school? Go to older.

Why do some side effects from drugs wear off and others do not? —Elyse Lemaire, Boston, Mass. Drugs have many effects. The ones we want are the reason we take the drugs. We call the others “side effects.” Our bodies try to maintain equilibrium by developing ways to tolerate these effects— both the positive and negative ones. This may cause drugs to be less effective over time. It may also cause some side effects to lessen. When positive effects lessen, we may need to increase the dose or change to a different drug. When negative effects lessen, we’re relieved. But depending on the drug, our genes and our overall health situation, the results will usually be mixed.

WE FOUND THE HEALTHIEST PLACES IN AMERICA! PLUS, FIVE THINGS TO DO TODAY TO BOOST LONGEVITY, NO MATTER WHERE YOU LIVE.
H
BY PAULA SPENCER SCOTT
ope to blow out 100 birthday candles? “The biggest impact on how long you live is where you live,” says National Geographic Fellow Dan Buettner, who has studied the world’s longest-living people in “longevity hotspots” he calls Blue Zones. Among them: Sardinia, Italy; Okinawa, Japan; and Nicoya, Costa Rica. “People in the Blue Zones don’t have better discipline or a greater sense of responsibility,” says Buettner. “They simply live in environments that make healthy lifestyle choices easier.” Some places are better than others at supporting the habits that stretch lifespans. When you can walk to do your errands, you’re more likely to be active than if you have to drive to the gym. Living in a community with neighborhood groups provides a buffer against loneliness, which can shave years off your life. You’re more apt to eat well when farmers markets are nearby. What else helps: safe bike lanes, affordable housing, good health care and an economy that sees older people as an asset, says Caroline Servat, co-author of a new Milken Institute report on “age-forward” communities. 7i½Ûi `i Ì wi` ÃiÛi ë ÌÃ Ì >Ì Ü i « Þ Õ live long and prosper.
Sure, Cali-beach life is a wellness cliché. But they’re not resting on their bikini bottoms here: Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach saw a 17 percent drop in smoking after smoke-free policies began shortly after 2010. That’s the year they joined the Blue Zones Project, which helps cities make healthy choices easier for residents. Walking is a big thing: One in four kids walks to school, double the national average, thanks to a new “walking school bus program” (groups footing it together on safe routes), and older citizens take regular group walks as part of the Blue Zones program. (See “5 Ways to Add Health Wherever You Live,” on page 9, to meet some walkers.) HEALTH PROPS It’s the largest area (population approx. 124,000) to earn Blue Zones Community certification, a mark of healthy-living progress. (Go to bluezonesproject.com to find out how to become a Blue Zones Community.) LONGEVITY BOOST A few years after 100-plus local restaurants and five groceries in the area pledged healthier offerings, the number of overweight residents dropped 15 percent. “That’s 1,900 fewer obese people,” Buettner says.
Breckenridge, Colorado
Like fellow Colorado mountain towns—Aspen, Crested Butte and Vail—and Jackson Hole, Wyo., longevity is sky-high in this historic haven near the Copper Mountain and Keystone resort areas. Ski towns draw people who can afford the best health care and prize mental and physical fitness, experts say. But whatever your income, mountain living is code for “outdoor motion,” whether you’re involved in snow sports, fishing, climbing, hiking or shoveling snow. HEALTH PROPS Breckenridge (population approx. 5,000) is the seat of Summit County, which has the U.S.’s longest life expectancy (86.8 years, compared to the national median of 79). And Colorado is the state with the fewest obese people. LONGEVITY BOOST The 10 million Americans who make their homes above 4,900 feet live one to three years longer than those near sea level. Some experts think lower oxygen levels help heart function. In Breckenridge, at 9,600 feet elevation, you’re nearly two miles up.

5 WAYS TO ADD HEALTH WHEREVER YOU LIVE
Use inspiration from our healthiest places to live to improve the lifestyle in your own town.
1. From Southern California: Walk More
Naples, Florida
CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT: SCOTT KEMPER/ALAMY; ISTOCK; COURTESY JOAN EDELMANN; STEVE SKJOLD/ALAMY; RICHARD GRAULICH/THE PALM BEACH POST/ZUMA WIRE
Minneapolis, Minnesota
Big-city benefits (like great health care) without big-city hassles (like bad traffic or bad air) contribute to one of the country’s fittest urban lifestyles. Almost one-fifth of Minneapolis is park land, so there’s always a nearby spot for biking, running, walking and mental R&R— or ice-skating, fishing and festivals during the cold season. Plant-based eating is made easier with nearly 30 farmers markets—the most per person in the U.S. outside of Washington, D.C. HEALTH PROPS Last year alone, Minneapolis (population approx. 432,000) made short lists for healthiest, fittest, bike-friendliest, leaststressed and best access to mental health. Only Hawaii and California have longer life expectancies than the state of Minnesota. LONGEVITY BOOST Local Finnish roots mean lots of saunas, which are linked to better heart health and longevity.
What’s not to love about Naples? The small town (population approx. 22,000) features high-quality health care and loads of leisure pursuits and good-foryou food—all set in a chill backdrop of Gulf of Mexico watersports, golf and sun. HEALTH PROPS The Naples-Immokalee–Marco Island area hit No. 1 in Gallup’s National Health and Well-Being Index for the past four years. Naples also often tops “healthiest eaters” lists. Who needs sugar when you have white “sugar sand” beaches to stroll on? LONGEVITY BOOST An unusu-
ally high number of Paradise Coast residents say in surveys that they’re low in stress and rich in supportive, loving relationships. Having strong social ties—there are multiple retirement communities and recreation centers here—can extend lifespan as much as quitting smoking, one research review found.
Start a “walking Moai” (pronounced mow-eye). Five years ago, Parade wrote about a Redondo Beach Blue Zones group—13 walkers from their 40s to 80s. Today, the Ocean Walkers Moai (pictured below) is still going strong with 40 members, ages 50 to 91. “We walk 3.5 miles a day four days a week along the ocean, and there are usually 10 to 20 walkers on any given day,” says Joan Edelmann, 72. “Our Moai remains a very warm and welcoming family. We celebrate birthdays, holidays and just watching the sun set at the beach.” Last year, one of group’s walkers, who is 87, became legally blind. “He learned how to use a white cane because it was important for him to keep walking,” Edelmann says. “Moai members take turns picking him up for our walks and social activities.”
2. From Pittsburgh: Build Community See if your town, like this one, is an age-friendly community, prioritizing intergenerational projects that provide health-boosting social purpose. Age-Friendly Greater Pittsburgh, for example, brought together older >`Õ ÌÃ] >ÀÌà «À iVÌà > ` `>Þ V>Ài `ð Ì >>À«°V Ì w ` ÕÌ Ü Ì become an age-friendly community. If nothing else, put a bench in your front yard to encourage neighborhood interaction and conversation.
3. From Charleston: Eat More Plants! You don’t have to go vegetarian, but making small changes toward a plant-based diet—like “beans and greens” twice a week—will add up to a healthier diet. Try our recipe for a delicious grain bowl from the new book The Blue Zones Kitchen by Dan Buettner (see page 14). It’s full of fresh veggies and healthy nonmeat protein.
4. From Minneapolis & Breckenridge: Get Outside Try biking or walking to work or to do errands— active commuters have much lower risk of early death, studies show. Cold outside? No problem. Folks in Minnesota and Colorado bundle up and get out there, heading to ice festivals, skiing cross-country trails or hiking in the park.
5. From Naples: Play Pickleball! Yes, the badminton/ping-pong–like game has become the rage all over the world, but Florida may just be the capital of pickleball. In fact, this year Naples will host the U.S. Open Pickleball Championships for the wvÌ Ì i° / i }> i }iÌÃ Þ Õ Û }° It’s often played in doubles, so it’s not too strenuous, and it’s a true community builder. More and more retirement and recreation centers have courts inside and out.

Yet it’s packed with top-notch health care, farm-to-table restaurants and an amenityrich waterfront downtown made for walking.

All the ingredients of a healthy life are here yearround, on land and water, from an above-average number of teams, sports clubs and gyms to fresh, healthy food galore. ( Just go easy on the barbecue and grits.) HEALTH PROPS Called one of America’s most walkable cities (population approx. 130,000)—especially the scenic downtown—it’s also No. 1 for plant-based eating, with one vegetarian business for every 2,100 people. LONGEVITY BOOST
Almost seven in 10 households here have a dog (or many dogs!)—which boosts heart health because they lower stress, decrease sitting time and give residents a reason to get up in the morning. Charlestonians walk ’em in parks, trails and on seven dog-friendly beaches. continued on page 12
