Buettner revealed there are two revolutionary supplements you should be consuming if you want to "change your life" and help you live longer.

These two supplements - black beans and walnuts.

Buettner explained: "We found that people who are actually making it to 100 eat a cup of beans a day. 

"It's associated with about four extra years of life expectancy.

"So if you want to take a supplement, take about 80 black beans a day. 

"If you don't like beans, we also found that people who eat between 15 and 30 walnuts a day are living about three years longer than people who don't eat walnuts, and you don't even need a prescription."

These findings were based on meta analysis from 155 dietary studies done over the last 100 years.
