This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. Pushkin. The standard American diet is killing us. That's a stark line from the book I want to tell you about in this episode.

Which is a bit different from the other works I'll be sharing in this season on my favorite books of twenty twenty-five. My other choices are mostly sciencey type books related to the study of happiness, but today's pick is a bit different. It's a cookbook entitled One Pot Meals. One hundred recipes to live till a hundred. And the author of One Pop Meals is someone you may remember if you're a fan of the Happiness Lab. My name is Dan Butener. I am a New York Times best selling writer, a national geographic explorer.

And uh most significantly, I'm a guest Lori Santos, which is my my proudest accolade. He's most well known for his work on what are called blue zones. The places around the world where people live the longest and happiest lives. Dan's research has shown that there are lots of cultural factors that promote health and happiness, but he's also found that food seems to be an important factor, too. Hence a cookbook.
