Singapore Setting the Blue(?) Standard

Dan Buettner, author who coined the term 'Blue Zones,' named Singapore as a Blue Zone 2.0 as the country's health standards have dramatically increased. Since 1960, the average Singaporean's lifespan has increased by 20 years! (That's 82.13 years for men and 86.42 years for women.)There are numerous contributing factors to this trend in how long a person lives. Things like top-tier healthcare services and even tax breaks for those who care for the elderly have completely changed the demographics of the tiny country. Singapore's traditional nickname of the "Lion City" has even changed to now the "Garden City." That's because the government has implemented numerous green spaces for the population to rest, relax, and enjoy beautiful surroundings. Not surprisingly, Singapore has also attracted many of the world's top longevity doctors. In fact, in addition to these doctors serving the local population, Singapore has now become a destination for those searching for the best longevity medicine care. That's why we've put together a collection of longevity doctors and clinics that you should check out if you plan on visiting soon...
