This lab consists of viewing a YouTube video and reading an article, then completing the Blue Zones Vitality Compass.

This is an exercise in critical thinking, self-assessment, and introspection. The components of the Vitality Compass include: Right Outlook, Move Naturally, Eat Wisely, Belong, and Lifestyle & Environment. (There are no right or wrong answers for this lab! Have fun with it.)

Premise of Lab

Our nutrition and fitness – and our individual values related to these areas – do not occur in a vacuum. They are health and lifestyle components of a much bigger picture – the social context of our families, communities, ethnic and racial values, cultures, and more.

The Vitality Compass is a self-assessment tool that claims to be “the most accurate life estimator available". Calculate your:

• Biological Age
• Overall Life Expectancy
• Healthy Life Expectancy
• Years you’re gaining/losing because of your health habits

At the conclusion of the self-assessment, you will see up to 12 customized recommendations to help you live longer.

2. Did you get the results that you expected or were you surprised? Please explain.
3. Did your Overall Life Expectancy score reflect your family history, or was it different? What would you attribute the similarities or differences to?
4. You may or may not have found this to be a useful activity. Either way, critique the Vitality Compass and your experience with it, your thoughts on the results.
