Why Santee Residents Are Upgrading Their Labs
Many individuals in California are turning to preventative testing for three main reasons:
- Find Answers Standard bloodwork can miss issues like thyroid, hormone, or autoimmune problems.
- Longevity Optimization: You cannot optimize what you do not measure. Function tracks APOB, Insulin, and Cortisol to measure aging.
- Family History: Early detection of cancer signals or heart disease risk factors is possible.
Santee’s suburban environment offers unique opportunities and challenges when viewed through the lens of Blue Zone longevity principles. While community and family values often run deep, integrating all nine Blue Zone habits requires intentional choices.
One significant strength is the community’s access to natural movement. With Mission Trails Regional Park and numerous local trails, residents can easily incorporate daily physical activity into their lives, aligning well with the “Move Naturally” principle and fostering an active “Right Tribe.”
Conversely, a primary challenge lies in dietary patterns. The prevalence of processed options and larger portion sizes in a typical suburban setting can diverge from the “Plant Slant” and “80% Rule” central to Blue Zone longevity. Mindful eating and prioritizing whole, plant-forward foods are areas for residents to actively cultivate.
