This study, published in Nature in 2016 by Xiao Do This study, published in Nature in 2016 by Xiao Dong, Brandon Milholland, and Jan Vijg, investigates whether there is a natural upper limit to the human lifespan. Despite significant increases in average human life expectancy over the past century, the authors provide strong demographic evidence suggesting that maximum human lifespan is fixed and subject to natural constraints, with limited improvement beyond a certain age threshold.
Background and Context
Life expectancy vs. maximum lifespan: Life expectancy has increased substantially since the 19th century, largely due to reduced early-life mortality and improved healthcare. However, maximum lifespan, defined as the age of the longest-lived individuals within a species, is generally considered a stable biological characteristic.
The oldest verified human was Jeanne Calment, who lived to 122 years, setting the recognized upper bound.
While animal studies show lifespan can be extended via genetics or pharmaceuticals, evidence on human maximum lifespan flexibility has been inconclusive.
Some previous research, such as studies from Sweden, suggested maximum lifespan was increasing during the 19th and early 20th centuries, challenging the notion of a fixed limit.
Key Findings
Trends in Life Expectancy and Late-Life Survival
Average life expectancy at birth has continually increased globally, especially in developed nations (e.g., France).
Gains in survival have shifted from early-life mortality reductions to improvements in late-life mortality, with more individuals reaching very old ages (70+).
However, the rate of improvement in survival declines sharply after around 100 years of age.
The age showing the greatest gains in survival over time increased during the 20th century but appears to have plateaued since around 1980.
This plateau is seen in 88% of 41 countries studied, indicating a potential biological constraint on lifespan extension beyond a certain point.
Maximum Reported Age at Death (MRAD) Analysis
Using data from the International Database on Longevity (IDL) and the Gerontological Research Group (GRG), the authors analyzed the maximum ages of supercentenarians (110+ years old) in countries with the largest datasets (France, Japan, UK, US).
The maximum reported age at death increased steadily between the 1970s and early 1990s but plateaued around the mid-1990s, near the time Jeanne Calment died (1997).
Linear regression divided into two periods (1968–1994 and 1995 onward) showed:
Pre-1995: MRAD increased by approximately 0.12–0.15 years per year.
Post-1995: No significant increase; a slight, non-significant decline occurred.
The MRAD has stabilized around 114.9 years (95% CI: 113.1–116.7).
The probability of exceeding 125 years in any given year is less than 1 in 10,000, according to a Poisson distribution model.
Additional Statistical Evidence
Analysis of the top five highest reported ages at death per year (not just the maximum) shows similar plateauing trends.
The annual average age at death among supercentenarians has not increased since 1968.
These consistent patterns across multiple metrics and datasets strengthen the evidence for a natural ceiling on human lifespan.
Biological Interpretation and Implications
The idea that aging is a programmed biological event evolved to cause death has been widely discredited.
Instead, limits to lifespan are likely an inadvertent consequence of genetic programs optimized for early life functions (development, growth, reproduction).
Species-specific longevity assurance systems encoded in the genome counteract genetic and cellular imperfections, maintaining lifespan within limits.
Extending human lifespan beyond these natural limits would likely require interventions beyond improving healthspan, potentially involving genetic or pharmacological modifications.
While current research explores such possibilities, the complexity of genetic determinants of lifespan suggests substantial biological constraints.
Timeline Table: Key Chronological Events and Findings
Period Event/Observation
1860s–1990s Maximum reported age at death in Sweden rose from ~101 to ~108 years, suggesting possible increase
1900 onwards Life expectancy at birth increased markedly globally, especially in developed countries
1970s–early 1990s Maximum reported age at death (MRAD) increased steadily in France, Japan, UK, and US
Mid-1990s (around 1995) MRAD plateaued at ~114.9 years; no further significant increase observed
1997 Death of Jeanne Calment, oldest verified human at 122 years
1980s onwards Age with greatest gains in survival plateaued, indicating diminishing improvements at oldest ages

Key Insights
Human maximum lifespan appears to be fixed and constrained, despite past increases in average lifespan.
Improvements in survival rates slow and plateau beyond approximately 100 years of age.
The world record for age at death has not significantly increased since the late 1990s.
The phenomenon is consistent across multiple countries and independent datasets.
Biological aging limits are likely an outcome of genetic programming optimized for early life, with longevity assured by species-specific genomic systems.
Substantial extension of maximum human lifespan would require overcoming complex genetic and biological constraints.
Conclusions
This comprehensive demographic analysis provides strong evidence for a natural limit to human lifespan, with little increase in maximum age at death over recent decades despite ongoing increases in average life expectancy. The data challenge optimistic views that human longevity can be indefinitely extended by current health improvements alone. Instead, future lifespan extension may depend on breakthroughs that directly target the underlying biological and genetic determinants of aging.

FAQ
Q: Has maximum human lifespan increased in recent decades?
A: No. Analysis shows the maximum reported age at death plateaued in the mid-1990s around 115 years.
Q: How does life expectancy differ from maximum lifespan?
A: Life expectancy is the average age people live to in a population, which has increased due to reduced early mortality. Maximum lifespan is the oldest age reached by individuals, which appears fixed.
Q: Is there evidence for biological constraints on human lifespan?
A: Yes. Data suggest species-specific genetic programs and longevity assurance systems impose natural upper limits.
Q: Could future interventions extend maximum lifespan?
A: Potentially, but such extensions require overcoming complex genetic and biological factors beyond current health improvements.

This study investigates gender differences in mito This study investigates gender differences in mitochondrial bioenergetics, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in the C57Bl/6J (B6) mouse strain, a commonly used laboratory rodent model that shows no significant differences in longevity between males and females. The research explores whether the previously observed gender-based differences in longevity and oxidative stress in other species, often attributed to higher estrogen levels in females, are reflected in mitochondrial function and apoptotic markers in this mouse strain.
Background and Rationale
It is widely observed that in many species, females tend to live longer than males, often explained by higher estrogen levels in females potentially reducing oxidative damage.
However, this trend is not universal: in some species including certain mouse strains (C57Bl/6J), longevity does not differ between sexes, and in others (e.g., Syrian hamsters, nematodes), males may live longer.
Previous studies in rat strains (Wistar, Fischer 344) with female longevity advantage showed lower mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and higher antioxidant defenses in females.
The Mitochondrial Free Radical Theory of Aging suggests that aging rate is related to mitochondrial ROS production, which causes oxidative damage.
This study aims to test if gender differences in mitochondrial bioenergetics, ROS production, oxidative stress, and apoptosis exist in B6 mice, which do not show sex differences in lifespan.
Experimental Design and Methods
Animals: 10-month-old male (n=11) and female (n=12) C57Bl/6J mice were used.
Tissues studied: Heart, skeletal muscle (gastrocnemius + quadriceps), and liver.
Mitochondrial isolation: Tissue-specific protocols were used to isolate mitochondria immediately post-sacrifice.
Measurements performed:
Mitochondrial oxygen consumption: State 3 (active) and State 4 (resting) respiration measured polarographically.
ATP content: Determined via luciferin-luciferase assay in freshly isolated mitochondria.
ROS production: H2O2 generation from mitochondrial complexes I and III measured fluorometrically with specific substrates and inhibitors.
Oxidative stress markers:
Protein carbonyls in cytosolic fractions (ELISA).
8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) levels in mitochondrial DNA (HPLC-EC-UV).
Apoptosis markers:
Caspase-3 and caspase-9 activity (fluorometric assays).
Cleaved caspase-3 protein (Western blot).
Mono- and oligonucleosomes (DNA fragmentation, ELISA).

Mono- and oligonucleosomes (DNA fragmentation) Heart, muscle, liver No difference No difference No significant difference
Core Findings and Interpretations
No significant sex differences were found in mitochondrial oxygen consumption or ATP content in heart, skeletal muscle, or liver mitochondria.
Mitochondrial ROS production rates were similar between sexes in heart and liver; only female skeletal muscle showed slightly higher ROS production with succinate substrate, an isolated finding.
Measures of oxidative damage to proteins and mitochondrial DNA did not differ between males and females.
Markers of apoptosis (caspase activities, cleaved caspase-3, DNA fragmentation) were not different between sexes in any tissue examined.
Despite females having higher estrogen levels, no associated protective effect on mitochondrial bioenergetics, oxidative stress, or apoptosis was observed in this mouse strain.
The lack of differences in mitochondrial function and oxidative damage correlates with the absence of sex differences in lifespan in the C57Bl/6J strain.
These data support the Mitochondrial Free Radical Theory of Aging, emphasizing the role of mitochondrial ROS production in aging rate, independent of estrogen-mediated effects.
The study suggests that body size differences might explain sex differences in longevity and oxidative stress observed in other species (e.g., rats), as mice exhibit smaller body weight differences between sexes.
The estrogen-related increase in antioxidant defenses or mitochondrial function is not universal, and estrogen’s protective role may vary by species and strain.
Apoptosis rates do not differ between sexes in middle-aged mice, but differences could potentially emerge at older ages (not specified).

Conclusions
In the C57Bl/6J mouse strain, gender does not influence mitochondrial bioenergetics, oxidative stress levels, or apoptosis markers, consistent with the lack of sex differences in longevity in this strain.
Higher estrogen levels in females do not confer measurable mitochondrial protection or reduced oxidative stress in this model.
The results suggest that oxidative stress generation, rather than estrogen levels, determines aging rate in this species.
Body size and species-specific factors may underlie observed sex differences in longevity and oxidative stress in other animals.
Further research is needed in models where males live longer than females (e.g., Syrian hamsters) and in older animals to clarify the influence of sex on apoptosis and aging.
Key Insights
Gender differences in mitochondrial ROS production and apoptosis are not universal across species or strains.
Estrogen’s role in modulating mitochondrial function and oxidative stress is complex and strain-dependent.
Mitochondrial ROS production remains a central factor in aging independent of sex hormones in the studied mouse strain.
Additional Notes
The study used well-controlled, comprehensive biochemical and molecular assays to evaluate mitochondrial function and apoptosis.
The findings challenge the assumption that female longevity advantage is directly mediated by estrogen effects on mitochondria.
The lack of sex differences in this mouse strain provides a useful baseline for comparative aging studies.

This investigation critically examines the heritab This investigation critically examines the heritability of human longevity, challenging prior estimates that have ranged between 15–30% by demonstrating that these figures are substantially inflated due to assortative mating—the nonrandom pairing of mates with respect to longevity-associated traits. Using an unprecedentedly large dataset derived from Ancestry public family trees, encompassing hundreds of millions of historical individuals primarily of European descent living in North America and Europe during the 19th and early 20th centuries, the authors applied advanced structural equation modeling to disentangle genetic, sociocultural, and assortative mating effects on lifespan correlations.
The study concludes that the true transferable variance (t²)—an upper bound on heritability (h²) that includes both genetic and sociocultural inherited factors—is well below 10% for birth cohorts across the 1800s and early 1900s. This suggests that earlier heritability estimates of longevity have been substantially overestimated because they did not adequately correct for assortative mating effects.
Key Concepts and Definitions
Term Definition
Heritability (h²) The fraction of phenotypic variance attributable to genetic variance.
Transferable variance (t²) Phenotypic variance due to all inherited factors, encompassing both genetic (h²) and sociocultural (b²) components, plus their covariance.
Sociocultural inheritance (b²) Non-genetic factors that influence phenotype and are transmitted through families (e.g., socioeconomic status).
Assortative mating (a) The correlation between latent genetic and sociocultural states of spouses that influences phenotypic correlations beyond genetic inheritance.
Nominal heritability Heritability estimated without correction for assortative mating or shared environment, typically based on correlation and additive relatedness.
Methodology Overview
Data Source: Aggregated and anonymized pedigrees (SAP) were created by collapsing 54 million publicly available Ancestry subscriber-generated family trees, resulting in over 831 million unique historical individuals linked by parent–child and spousal edges.
Data Quality Controls:
Removed self-edges and gender-incongruent parent-child edges.
Added missing spousal edges between parents.
Focused on individuals with known birth and death years who had offspring, limiting analysis primarily to birth cohorts from the early 1800s to 1920.
Addressed data artifacts such as birth year rounding.
Analysis Approach:
Estimated phenotypic correlations of lifespan between various relatives (siblings, cousins, spouses, in-laws).
Calculated nominal heritability using standard regression methods correcting for variance differences.
Developed and applied a structural equation model incorporating three key parameters:
Transferable variance (t²),
Inheritance coefficient (b),
Assortative mating coefficient (a).
Utilized correlations among siblings-in-law and cosiblings-in-law to solve for these parameters.
Applied an assortment-correction method using remote relative pairs and their in-law equivalents to validate estimates.
Timeline Table: Analytical Focus and Data Coverage
Period Data Characteristics and Focus
Pre-1700 Mostly European births; sparse data quality Not specified
1700–1800 Increasing data quality; European and North American births
1800–1920 Primary focus; high data quality; large sample sizes in millions
Post-1920 Decline in death-year data; excluded from lifespan analysis
Major Findings
1. Nominal Heritability Estimates Confirm Prior Literature but Are Inflated
Nominal heritability estimates for lifespan correlated with previous findings (15–30%).
Lifespan correlations among blood relatives were similar to past studies.
However, spouses and in-law relatives also showed substantial lifespan correlations, sometimes comparable to or exceeding those of blood relatives.
This indicated that shared environments and assortative mating inflate these estimates.
2. Assortative Mating Significantly Inflates Heritability Estimates
Assortative mating coefficient (a) was consistently high across all analyses, often exceeding 0.8, indicating strong nonrandom mating based on lifespan-influencing factors.
The presence of assortative mating causes phenotypic correlations between relatives to deviate from the linear relationship expected under pure additive genetics.
Correlations between in-law relatives (who do not share genetics) were substantial, confirming the importance of assortative mating rather than shared genetics alone.
3. Structural Equation Modeling Reveals True Transferable Variance (t²) Is <10%
Using sibling-in-law and cosibling-in-law correlations, the model estimated transferable variance (t²) consistently below 7% for all gender combinations and birth cohorts.
This t² value represents an upper bound on heritability (h²) because it includes both genetic and sociocultural transmitted factors.
The inheritance coefficient (b) was estimated between 0.40–0.45, slightly less than the genetic expectation of 0.5, reflecting combined genetic and sociocultural inheritance.
Shared household environmental effects were also quantified and found to be substantial but separate from transferable variance.
4. Independent Validation Using Remote Relatives Supports Low Heritability
Assortment-correction method applied to remote relatives (piblings, first cousins, first cousins once removed) and their in-law equivalents consistently estimated assortative mating coefficients (a) close to or above 0.5.
Transferable variance estimates from these analyses also remained below 10%, validating the sibling-in-law modeling approach.
5. Transferable Variance Decreases with Increasing Birth-Cohort Disparity Among Relatives
Lifespan correlation and transferable variance (t²) were higher when relatives were born closer in time; as the birth-year gap increased, t² declined significantly.
Assortative mating coefficient (a) remained stable across birth-year offsets, suggesting that the decline in transferable variance was not due to mating patterns.
This suggests that genetic and sociocultural factors affecting lifespan vary with historical context, likely reflecting changing environmental hazards and causes of death over time.
Quantitative Summary Table: Structural Equation Model Estimates by Birth Cohort
Birth Cohort Period Transferable Variance (t²) Assortative Mating Coefficient (a) Inheritance Coefficient (b) Shared Childhood Environment (csib) Shared Adult Environment (csp)
1800s–1830s ~5.9–6.5% (across relatives) ~0.68–0.88 ~0.40–0.44 ~4.3% (siblings) ~6.6% (spouses)
1840s–1870s ~4.0–5.5% ~0.53–0.88 ~0.40 ~5.1% ~5.0%
1880s–1910s ~4.0–7.2% ~0.43–0.89 ~0.40 ~6.0% ~4.4%
Values represent means across gender pairs with standard deviations; b fixed at 0.5 for some estimates; all data derived from sibling-in-law and remote relative analyses.
Core Insights
Previous heritability estimates of human longevity (~15–30%) are substantially inflated due to assortative mating.
True heritability (h²) is likely below 10%, and possibly considerably lower after accounting for sociocultural inheritance.
Assortative mating for lifespan-related factors is strong, with a coefficient often >0.8, indicating mates tend to share longevity-related traits, both genetic and environmental.
Sociocultural factors (e.g., socioeconomic status) are a significant inherited component influencing longevity, evidenced by lifespan correlations among in-law relatives and supported by sociological literature.
Transferable variance (t²) decreases as birth cohorts diverge, implying that historical environmental changes modulate the impact of inherited factors on longevity.
Fundamental biological aging processes (e.g., rate of hazard doubling) appear consistent historically, but lifespan-affecting factors mostly modify susceptibility to historically transient environmental hazards, not aging rate itself.
Implications
Genetic studies of longevity should account for assortative mating and sociocultural inheritance to avoid overestimating genetic contributions.
Interventions targeting environmental and sociocultural factors could have a larger impact on lifespan extension than currently assumed genetic predispositions.
Historical and birth cohort context is critical when interpreting heritability and lifespan data.
The biological basis of aging remains consistent, but its interaction with environment and social factors is dynamic and complex.

Program Overview
The Essential Steps to Healthy Aging is a structured educational program designed to motivate and empower participants to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors that foster optimal aging. Developed by Kansas State University’s Cooperative Extension Service, this program highlights that aging is inevitable, but how individuals care for themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally throughout life significantly influences the quality of their later years. The program promotes the idea that healthy lifestyle changes can positively impact well-being at any age.
Core Concept
Aging well is a lifelong process influenced by daily choices. Research on centenarians (people aged 100 and over) shows that adopting certain healthy behaviors contributes to longevity and improved quality of life. The program introduces 12 essential steps to maintain health and enhance successful aging.
The 12 Essential Steps to Healthy Aging

This study investigates the impact of energy pover This study investigates the impact of energy poverty on life expectancy in Nigeria over the period from 1981 to 2023. Utilizing time series data and the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model, the research examines both short-run and long-run effects, revealing a statistically significant negative relationship between energy poverty and life expectancy. The study emphasizes the critical role of energy access as a determinant of public health and longevity, urging policy reforms to improve energy infrastructure and accessibility in Nigeria to enhance health outcomes and sustainable development.
Key Concepts
Term Definition/Explanation
Life Expectancy Average number of years a newborn is expected to live, given current sex- and age-specific mortality rates.
Energy Poverty Lack of access to affordable, reliable, and clean energy services, including electricity and clean cooking fuels.
ARDL Model An econometric technique used to estimate both short-run and long-run relationships in time series data.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) United Nations goals, including Goal 3 (Health and Well-being) and Goal 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy).
Background and Context
Nigeria faces a persistent energy crisis, with about 43% of the population (86 million people) lacking access to reliable and modern energy.
Life expectancy in Nigeria is significantly lower than the global average, estimated at 54.9 years for women and 54.3 years for men, compared to global averages of 76 and 70.7 years respectively.
Energy poverty in Nigeria manifests through:
Limited electricity access.
Dependence on biomass and kerosene for cooking.
Frequent power outages affecting households, hospitals, and public infrastructure.
Existing government policies (e.g., National Health Policy, Renewable Energy Master Plan) have not sufficiently improved energy access or life expectancy.
Life expectancy is a key indicator of national development and is strongly influenced by socioeconomic and infrastructural factors.
Theoretical Framework
The study is grounded in Human Capital Theory (Schultz, Becker), which posits that investments in health, education, and other social services enhance individual productivity and contribute to overall economic growth and well-being.
Access to modern energy is viewed as a critical enabler of:
Health services.
Clean environments.
Improved living standards.
Energy poverty undermines health by increasing exposure to harmful fuels and limiting access to healthcare, thereby shortening life expectancy.

This study, published in Proceedings of the Nation This study, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (1984), investigates the effects of food restriction on aging, specifically aiming to disentangle the roles of reduced food intake and reduced adiposity on longevity and physiological aging markers in mice. The research focuses on genetically obese (ob/ob) and normal (C57BL/6J, or B6 +/+) female mice, examining how lifelong food restriction influences longevity, collagen aging, renal function, and immune responses. The key finding is that reduced food intake, rather than reduced adiposity, is the critical factor in extending lifespan and retarding certain aging processes.
Background and Objective
Food restriction (caloric restriction) is known to increase longevity in rodents, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.
Previous studies suggested that reduced adiposity (body fat) might mediate the longevity effects. However, human epidemiological data show conflicting evidence: moderate obesity correlates with lower mortality, challenging the assumption that less fat is always beneficial.
Genetically obese ob/ob mice provide a model to separate effects because they maintain high adiposity even when food restricted.
The study aims to clarify whether reduced food intake or reduced adiposity is the primary driver of delayed aging and increased longevity.
Experimental Design
Subjects: Female mice of the C57BL/6J strain, both normal (+/+) and genetically obese (ob/ob).
Feeding Regimens:
Fed ad libitum (free access to food).
Restricted feeding: fixed ration daily, adjusted so restricted ob/ob mice weigh similarly to fed +/+ mice.
Food restriction started at weaning (4 weeks old) and continued lifelong.
Parameters measured:
Longevity (mean and maximum lifespan).
Body weight, adiposity (fat percentage), and food intake.
Collagen aging assessed by denaturation time of tail tendon collagen.
Renal function measured via urine-concentrating ability after dehydration.
Immune function evaluated by thymus-dependent responses: proliferative response to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and plaque-forming cells in response to sheep erythrocytes (SRBC).
Key Quantitative Data
Group Food Intake (g/day) Body Weight (g) Body Fat (% of wt) Mean Longevity (days) Max Longevity (days) Immune Response to SRBC (% Young Control) Immune Response to PHA (% Young Control)
Fed ob/ob 4.2 ± 0.5 67 ± 5 ~66% 755 893 7 ± 7 13 ± 7
Fed +/+ 3.0* 30 ± 1* 22 ± 6 971 954 22 ± 11 49 ± 12
Restricted ob/ob 2.0* 28 ± 2 48 ± 1 823 1307 11 ± 7 8 ± 6
Restricted +/+ 2.0* 20 ± 2* 13 ± 3 810 1287 59 ± 30 50 ± 11
Note: Means not significantly different from each other are marked with an asterisk (*).
Detailed Findings
1. Body Weight, Food Intake, and Adiposity
Fed ob/ob mice consume the most food and have the highest body fat (~66% of body weight).
When food restricted, ob/ob mice consume about half as much food as when fed ad libitum but maintain a very high adiposity (~48%), nearly twice that of fed normal mice.
Restricted normal mice have the lowest fat percentage (~13%) despite eating the same amount of food as restricted ob/ob mice.
This demonstrates that food intake and adiposity can be experimentally dissociated in these genotypes.
2. Longevity
Food restriction increased mean lifespan of ob/ob mice by 56% and maximum lifespan by 46%.
In normal mice, food restriction had little effect on mean longevity but increased maximum lifespan by 32%.
Food-restricted ob/ob mice lived longer than fed normal mice, despite their greater adiposity.
These results strongly suggest that reduced food intake, not reduced adiposity, extends lifespan, even with high body fat levels.
3. Collagen Aging
Collagen denaturation time is a biomarker of aging, with shorter times indicating more advanced aging.
Collagen aging is accelerated in fed ob/ob mice compared to normal mice.
Food restriction greatly retards collagen aging in both genotypes.
Importantly, collagen aging rates were similar in restricted ob/ob and restricted +/+ mice, despite widely different body fat percentages.
Conclusion: Collagen aging correlates with food intake but not with adiposity.
4. Renal Function (Urine-Concentrating Ability)
Urine-concentrating ability declines with age in normal rodents.
Surprisingly, fed ob/ob mice did not show an age-related decline; their concentrating ability remained high into old age.
Restricted mice (both genotypes) showed a slower decline than fed normal mice.
This suggests obesity does not necessarily impair this aspect of renal function, and food restriction preserves it.
5. Immune Function
Immune responses (to PHA and SRBC) decline with age, more severely in fed ob/ob mice (only ~10% of young normal levels at old age).
Food restriction did not improve immune responses in ob/ob mice, even though their lifespans were extended.
In restricted normal mice, immune responses showed slight improvement compared to fed normal mice.
The spleens of restricted ob/ob mice were smaller, which might contribute to low immune responses measured per spleen.
These results suggest immune aging may be independent from longevity effects of food restriction, especially in genetically obese mice.
The more rapid decline in immune function with higher adiposity aligns with previous reports that increased dietary fat accelerates autoimmunity and immune decline.
Interpretation and Conclusions
The study disentangles two factors often conflated in aging research: food intake and adiposity.
Reduced food intake is the primary factor in extending lifespan and slowing collagen aging, not the reduction of body fat.
Genetically obese mice restricted in food intake live longer than normal mice allowed to eat freely, despite retaining high body fat levels.
Aging appears to involve multiple independent processes (collagen aging, immune decline, renal function), each affected differently by genetic obesity and food restriction.
The study also highlights that immune function decline is not necessarily mitigated by food restriction in obese mice, suggesting complexities in how different physiological systems age.
Findings challenge the assumption that less fat is always beneficial, offering a potential explanation for human studies showing moderate obesity correlates with lower mortality.
The results support the idea that reducing food consumption can be beneficial even in individuals with high adiposity, with implications for aging and metabolic disease research.
Implications for Human Aging and Obesity
The study cautions against equating adiposity directly with aging rate or mortality risk without considering food intake.
It suggests that caloric restriction may improve longevity even when body fat remains high, which may help reconcile conflicting human epidemiological data.
The authors note that micronutrient supplementation along with food restriction could further optimize longevity outcomes, based on related studies.
Core Concepts
Food Restriction (Caloric Restriction): Limiting food intake without malnutrition.
Adiposity: The proportion of body weight composed of fat.
ob/ob Mice: Genetically obese mice with a mutation causing defective leptin production, leading to obesity.
Longevity: Length of lifespan.
Collagen Aging: Changes in collagen denaturation time indicating tissue aging.
Immune Senescence: Decline in immune function with age.
Renal Function: Kidney’s ability to concentrate urine, an indicator of aging-related physiological decline.

Summary Table of Aging Markers by Group
Marker Fed ob/ob Fed +/+ Restricted ob/ob Restricted +/+ Interpretation
Body Fat (%) ~66 22 ~48 13 Ob/ob mice retain high fat even restricted
Mean Lifespan (days) 755 971 823 810 Food restriction increases lifespan in ob/ob mice
Max Lifespan (days) 893 954 1307 1287 Max lifespan improved by restriction
Collagen Aging Rate Fast (accelerated) Normal Slow (retarded) Slow (retarded) Related to food intake, not adiposity
Urine Concentrating Ability High, no decline with age Declines with age Declines slowly Declines slowly Obesity does not impair this function
Immune Response Severely reduced (~10%) Moderately reduced Severely reduced (~10%) Slightly improved Immune aging not improved by restriction in obese mice
Key Insights
Longevity extension by food restriction is independent of adiposity levels.
Collagen aging is directly related to food consumption, not fat content.
Obesity does not necessarily impair certain renal functions during aging.
Immune function decline with age is exacerbated by obesity but is not rescued by food restriction in obese mice.
Aging is a multifactorial process with independent physiological components.
Final Remarks
This comprehensive study provides compelling evidence that lifespan extension by food restriction is primarily driven by the reduction in caloric intake rather than by decreased fat mass. It highlights the complexity of aging, showing that different physiological systems age at different rates and respond differently to genetic and environmental factors. The findings have significant implications for understanding obesity, aging, and dietary interventions in mammals, including humans.

This study presents a systematic review and pooled This study presents a systematic review and pooled survival analysis quantifying the effects of desiccation stress (humidity) and temperature on the adult female longevity of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, the primary mosquito vectors of arboviral diseases such as dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and yellow fever. The research addresses a critical gap in vector ecology and epidemiology by providing a comprehensive, quantitative model of how humidity influences adult mosquito survival, alongside temperature effects, to improve understanding of transmission dynamics and enhance predictive models of disease risk.
Background
Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus are globally invasive mosquito species that transmit several major arboviruses.
Adult female mosquito longevity strongly impacts transmission dynamics because mosquitoes must survive the extrinsic incubation period (EIP) to become infectious.
While temperature effects on mosquito survival have been widely studied and incorporated into models, the role of humidity remains poorly quantified despite being ecologically significant.
Humidity influences mosquito survival via desiccation stress, affecting water loss and physiological function.
Environmental moisture also indirectly affects mosquito populations by altering evaporation rates in larval habitats, impacting larval development and adult body size, which affects vectorial capacity.
Understanding the temperature-dependent and non-linear effects of humidity can improve ecological and epidemiological models, especially in arid, semi-arid, and seasonally dry regions, which are understudied.
Objectives
Systematically review experimental studies on temperature, humidity, and adult female survival in Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus.
Quantify the relationship between humidity and adult survival while accounting for temperature’s modifying effect.
Provide improved parameterization for models of mosquito populations and arboviral transmission.
Methods
Systematic Literature Search: 1517 unique articles screened; 17 studies (16 laboratory, 1 semi-field) met inclusion criteria, comprising 192 survival experiments with ~15,547 adult females (8749 Ae. aegypti, 6798 Ae. albopictus).
Inclusion Criteria: Studies must report survival data for adult females under at least two temperature-humidity regimens, with sufficient methodological detail on nutrition and hydration.
Data Extraction: Variables included species, survival times, mean temperature, relative humidity (RH), and provisioning of water, sugar, and blood meals. Saturation vapor pressure deficit (SVPD) was calculated from temperature and RH to represent desiccation stress.
Survival Time Simulation: To harmonize disparate survival data formats (survival curves, mean/median longevity, survival proportions), individual mosquito survival times were simulated via Weibull and log-logistic models.
Pooled Survival Analysis: Stratified and mixed-effects Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (mortality risks) associated with temperature, SVPD, and nutritional factors.
Model Selection: SVPD was found to fit survival data better than RH or vapor pressure.
Sensitivity Analyses: Included testing model robustness by excluding individual studies and comparing results using only Weibull simulations.
Key Quantitative Findings
Parameter Ae. aegypti Ae. albopictus Notes
Temperature optimum (lowest mortality hazard) ~27.5 °C ~21.5 °C Ae. aegypti optimum higher than Ae. albopictus
Mortality risk trend Increases non-linearly away from optimum; sharp rise at higher temps Similar trend; possibly slightly better survival at lower temps Mortality rises rapidly at high temps for both species
Effect of desiccation (SVPD) Mortality hazard rises steeply from 0 to ~1 kPa SVPD, then more gradually Mortality hazard increases with SVPD but with less clear pattern Non-linear and temperature-dependent relationship
Species comparison (stratified model) Generally lower mortality risk than Ae. albopictus across most conditions Higher mortality risk compared to Ae. aegypti Differences not significant in mixed-effects model
Nutritional provisioning effects Provision of water, sugar, blood meals significantly reduces mortality risk Same as Ae. aegypti Provisioning modeled as binary present/absent
Qualitative and Contextual Insights
Humidity is a significant and temperature-dependent factor affecting adult female survival in Ae. aegypti, with more limited but suggestive evidence for Ae. albopictus.
Mortality risk increases sharply with desiccation stress (SVPD), especially at higher temperatures.
Ae. aegypti tends to have higher survival and a higher thermal optimum than Ae. albopictus, aligning with their geographic distributions—Ae. aegypti favors warmer, drier climates while Ae. albopictus tolerates cooler temperatures.
Provisioning of water and nutrients (sugar, blood) markedly improves survival, reflecting the importance of hydration and energy intake.
The findings support that humidity effects are underrepresented in current mosquito and disease transmission models, which often rely on simplistic or threshold-based mortality assumptions.
The use of SVPD (a measure of desiccation potential) rather than relative humidity or vapor pressure is more appropriate for modeling mosquito survival related to desiccation.
There is substantial unexplained variability among studies, likely due to unmeasured factors such as mosquito genetics, experimental protocols, and microclimatic conditions.
The majority of studies used laboratory settings and tropical/subtropical strains, with very limited data from arid or semi-arid climates, a critical gap given the importance of humidity fluctuations there.
Microclimatic variability and mosquito behavior (e.g., seeking humid refugia) may mitigate desiccation effects in the field, so laboratory results may overestimate mortality under natural conditions.
The study highlights the need for more field-based and arid region studies, and for models to incorporate nonlinear and interactive effects of temperature and humidity on mosquito survival.

Summary
This study investigates the relationship Summary
This study investigates the relationship between exceptional parental longevity and the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in their offspring, with a focus on whether lifestyle, socioeconomic status, and dietary factors influence this association. Conducted on a cohort of Ashkenazi Jewish adults aged 65-94, the research compares two groups: offspring of parents with exceptional longevity (OPEL), defined as having at least one parent living beyond 95 years, and offspring of parents with usual survival (OPUS), whose parents did not survive past 95 years. The study finds that OPEL exhibit significantly lower prevalence of hypertension, stroke, and overall cardiovascular disease compared to OPUS, independent of lifestyle, socioeconomic, and nutritional differences, thus highlighting a probable genetic influence on disease-free survival and longevity.
Background and Rationale
Individuals with exceptional longevity often experience a delay or absence of age-related diseases, making them models for studying healthy aging.
Longevity has a heritable component, with genetic markers linked to extended lifespan and resistance to diseases like CVD.
Previous studies have shown that offspring of exceptionally long-lived parents have lower incidence of CVD and other age-related illnesses.
Lifestyle factors such as physical activity, diet, smoking status, and socioeconomic status are known to influence cardiovascular health in the general population.
Prior to this study, no research compared lifestyle factors between offspring of exceptionally long-lived parents and those of usual longevity to isolate genetic effects from environmental factors.
Study Design and Methods
Population: 845 Ashkenazi Jewish adults aged 65-94 years; 395 OPEL and 450 OPUS.

Summary
This study, published in Revista de Saúde Summary
This study, published in Revista de Saúde Pública (2013), investigates whether the elimination of certain chronic diseases can lead to a compression of morbidity among elderly individuals in São Paulo, Brazil. It uses population-based data from the 2000 SABE (Health, Wellbeing and Ageing) study and official mortality records to evaluate changes in disability-free life expectancy (DFLE) resulting from the hypothetical removal of specific chronic conditions.
Background and Objectives
Chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and chronic pulmonary conditions account for approximately 50% of diseases in developing countries and are major contributors to morbidity and mortality.
In Brazil, these diseases represent the main health burden and priority for healthcare systems.
The compression of morbidity theory posits that delaying the onset of debilitating diseases compresses the period of morbidity into a shorter segment at the end of life, thus increasing healthy life expectancy.
Other theories include:
Expansion of morbidity: Mortality declines due to reduced lethality but incidence remains or increases, leading to longer periods of morbidity.
Dynamic equilibrium: Both mortality and morbidity decline, keeping years lived with severe disability relatively constant.
The study aims to analyze whether eliminating certain chronic diseases would compress morbidity among elderly individuals, improving overall health expectancy.
Methodology
Design: Analytical, population-based, cross-sectional study.
Population: 2,143 elderly individuals (aged 60+) from São Paulo, Brazil, sampled probabilistically in 2000 as part of the SABE study.
Data collection:
Structured questionnaire covering sociodemographics, health status, functional capacity, and chronic diseases.
Self-reported presence of 9 chronic diseases based on ICD-10: systemic arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, heart disease, lung disease, cancer, joint disease, cerebrovascular disease, falls in previous year, and nervous/psychiatric problems.
Functional disability defined by difficulties in activities of daily living (dressing, eating, bathing, toileting, ambulation, fecal and urinary incontinence).
Statistical analysis:
Sullivan’s method used to compute life expectancy (LE) and disability-free life expectancy (DFLE).
Cause-deleted life tables estimated probabilities of death with elimination of specific diseases.
Multiple logistic regression (controlling for age) assessed disability prevalence changes with disease elimination.
Assumption: independence between causes of death and disability.
Sampling weights and corrections for design effects were applied to represent the São Paulo elderly population.
Key Findings
Sample Characteristics
Females represented 58.6% of the sample.
Higher proportion of women aged 75+ (24.2%) than men (19.2%).
Women more frequently widowed or single; men had higher employment rates.
Women more likely to live alone.

Summary: Eating for Health and Longevity – A Pract Summary: Eating for Health and Longevity – A Practical Guide to Whole-Food, Plant-Based Diets
This guide, produced by SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University, provides a comprehensive, evidence-based overview of adopting a whole-food, plant-based (WFPB) diet to promote health, prevent chronic disease, and improve longevity. It offers practical advice for transitioning to plant-based eating, highlights nutritional benefits, and addresses common concerns and misconceptions.
Core Concepts of a Whole-Food, Plant-Based Diet
Definition: A WFPB diet emphasizes eating whole, minimally processed plant foods such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds.
Exclusions: It minimizes or avoids meat, poultry, fish/seafood, eggs, dairy, refined carbohydrates (e.g., white bread, white rice), refined sugars, extracted oils, and highly processed foods.
Difference from Vegan Diet: Unlike some vegan diets, which may include refined grains, sweeteners, and oils, the WFPB diet focuses on whole foods for optimal health.
Health Benefits
Chronic Disease Prevention and Reversal: WFPB diets can prevent, manage, and sometimes reverse diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and hypertension.
Weight Management: Effective for losing excess weight and maintaining a healthy weight.
Longevity and Vitality: Promotes vibrant health and potentially longer life by reducing lifestyle-related risk factors.
Foods to Include and Avoid
Foods to Eat and Enjoy Foods to Avoid or Minimize
Fresh and frozen vegetables Meats (red, processed, poultry, fish/seafood)
Fresh fruits Refined grains (white rice, white pasta, white bread)
Whole grains (oats, quinoa, barley) Products with refined sugars or sweeteners (sodas, candy)
Legumes (peas, lentils, beans) Highly processed or convenience foods with added salt
Unsalted nuts and seeds Eggs and dairy products
Dried fruits without additives Processed plant-based meat, cheese, or butter alternatives
Unsweetened non-dairy milks Refined, extracted oils (olive oil, canola, vegetable)
Alcoholic beverages

This study investigates the relationship between d This study investigates the relationship between drinking water quality and human health and longevity in Mayang County, a recognized longevity region in Hunan Province, China. The research focuses on the chemical composition of local drinking water and the trace element content in the hair of local centenarians. It examines how waterborne trace elements correlate with longevity indices and health outcomes, drawing on chemical analyses, statistical correlations, and comparisons with national and international standards.
Study Context and Background
Drinking water is a crucial source of trace elements essential for human physiological functions since the human body cannot synthesize these elements.
The quality and composition of drinking water significantly influence human health and the prevalence of certain diseases.
Previous studies have linked variations in trace elements in water with incidences of gastric cancer, colon and rectal cancer, thyroid diseases, neurological disorders, esophageal cancer, and Kashin-Beck disease.
China has identified 13 longevity counties based on:
Number of centenarians per 100,000 population (≥7),
Average life expectancy at least 3 years above the national average,
Proportion of people over 80 years old accounting for ≥1.4% of the total population.
Mayang County meets these criteria and was officially designated a longevity county in 2007.
Study Area: Mayang County, Hunan Province
Located between the Wuling and Xuefeng Mountains, covering

“The Night of Christmas Eve” is a magical-folklori “The Night of Christmas Eve” is a magical-folkloric tale set in a Ukrainian village on Christmas Eve. Blending humor, romance, and supernatural elements, Gogol transports the reader into a world where devils, witches, and enchanted happenings coexist with village traditions.
The story follows:
Vakula the Blacksmith
A hardworking but impulsive blacksmith who is hopelessly in love with Oksana, a beautiful yet vain girl. Oksana mocks him, saying she will only marry him if he brings her the Tsaritsa’s slippers—an impossible task.
The Devil’s Mischief
A devil, angry at Vakula for painting religious icons that depict demons in humiliating ways, decides to cause trouble. On Christmas Eve he steals the moon, summons a snowstorm, and teams up with the witch Solokha (who happens to be Vakula’s mother) in a comic series of encounters involving hidden lovers in sacks.
Vakula’s Fantastic Journey
After overhearing Oksana’s demand, Vakula strikes a deal with the devil and flies on his back to St. Petersburg. Through a twist of luck and boldness, he actually obtains the Tsaritsa’s slippers.
A Warm Ending
Vakula returns triumphantly, Oksana realizes she truly loves him, and the tale ends with a joyful holiday celebration—full of music, warmth, and the spirit of Ukrainian Christmas tradition.
Tone & Style
Gogol mixes:
Folklore
Comedy
Romantic adventure
Supernatural fantasy
The story is vivid, whimsical, and rooted deeply in Ukrainian rural culture and Christmas customs.

⭐ “The Christmas Holiday”
“The Christmas Holida ⭐ “The Christmas Holiday”
“The Christmas Holiday” is a reflective and analytical article that explores the meaning, history, arguments, and modern understanding of Christmas. It examines Christmas not only as a religious celebration but also as a cultural tradition that has changed over time.
⭐ What the Article Covers
1. Introduction to Christmas
The article begins by explaining that Christmas has long been a holiday that brings people together to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Over centuries, it has blended religious beliefs, cultural customs, and social traditions, creating many debates about what Christmas truly represents.
2. History and Evolution of Christmas
It explains that Christmas was placed on December 25 to replace earlier pagan winter festivals like the winter solstice and Saturnalia. Over time, Christmas has shifted from a mainly religious observance to a mixture of religious, cultural, and family traditions.
3. Decline of Religious Meaning
The author points out that many modern celebrations of Christmas focus more on gifts, family gatherings, and social activities than on the birth of Jesus. Some people treat Christmas as a time to show off achievements or participate in secular traditions like “Dirty December.”
4. Past Controversies and Bans
The article describes moments in history when Christmas was even banned, especially by the Puritans in the 17th century, who believed the celebration encouraged sinful behavior or had pagan roots. It wasn’t until the 19th century that Christmas became widely accepted again in places like Boston.
5. Arguments About Christmas’ Origins
Some argue Christmas came from pagan festivals, while others say early Christians chose December 25 to help spread Christianity. The article presents different viewpoints about whether Christmas has biblical support or not.
6. Criticisms of Modern Christmas Traditions
Several theologians criticize:
>Santa Claus, who they claim distracts from Jesus.
>Christmas plays, cards, and images, which may break biblical commandments.
>Focusing on unbiblical holidays while neglecting the Sabbath.
>Emotional songs and traditions that may not be biblically accurate.
>Some even argue Christmas should not be celebrated at all if it lacks biblical instruction.
7. Is Celebrating Christmas Sinful?
The article discusses whether elevating Christmas above other days is a form of disobedience. Some believe Christmas distracts from observing the Lord’s Day, while others accept it as long as it is practiced with proper focus and understanding.
8. Different Christian Views
Reformers like John Calvin supported celebrating Christ’s birth but avoided excess and worldly behavior. Others believe Christmas should be maintained but purified, while some believe it should be entirely rejected.
⭐ Conclusion of the Article
The author concludes that Christmas is a complex holiday with many layers—historical, religious, cultural, and social. There are strong arguments for and against celebrating it. Some focus on its biblical importance; others criticize its modern practices and misunderstandings.
In the end, the article encourages critical thinking and urges people to carefully consider how and why they celebrate Christmas....

The “Life Expectancy Table” is a demographic refer The “Life Expectancy Table” is a demographic reference chart that presents the average number of additional years a person can expect to live at every age, separately for males and females. The table lists life expectancy values beginning at birth (age 0) and continuing through age 119, showing how expected remaining lifespan decreases steadily as age increases.
According to the table, females consistently live longer than males at every age. For example, at birth, males have a life expectancy of 74.14 years, while females have 79.45 years. At age 50, a male can expect to live 27.85 more years, while a female can expect 31.75 more years. Even at advanced ages, women maintain a longevity advantage—for instance, at age 90, males have about 3.70 remaining years, while females have 4.47.
The table’s structure demonstrates a fundamental principle of longevity statistics: life expectancy is conditional on reaching a certain age. As individuals survive childhood and adulthood, their expected remaining years often become longer than what the life expectancy at birth might suggest. The values gradually decline but still show meaningful remaining lifespan even at later ages due to improving health care and survivorship trends.
Overall, this table serves as a clear, numerical snapshot of age-specific survival expectations, illustrating gender differences, mortality patterns, and the progressive decline in remaining life years from infancy to extreme old age....

“Mortality and Longevity: A Risk Management Perspe “Mortality and Longevity: A Risk Management Perspective”**
This PDF is a research chapter that examines mortality and longevity through the lens of risk management, particularly focusing on how insurance companies, pension funds, and governments measure, manage, and respond to the financial risks created by changing mortality patterns and increasing life expectancy. It combines demographic analysis, actuarial science, economics, and risk-transfer mechanisms to explain why longevity is one of the most significant financial risks of the 21st century.
The core message:
Falling mortality and rising longevity create large, long-term financial risks—and risk management tools are essential for sustainable pensions, insurance systems, and public finances.
📘 Purpose of the Chapter
The chapter aims to:
Explain mortality and longevity as quantitative risks
Explore causes of uncertainty in life expectancy predictions
Show how longevity affects pensions, annuities, and insurance
Discuss risk-transfer and hedging tools (e.g., longevity bonds, swaps)
Evaluate forecasting models and the limits of prediction
Provide a framework for managing longevity risk at institutional and national levels
It positions longevity risk as a major concern for aging societies.
🧠 Core Themes and Key Insights
1. Mortality and Longevity Are Risk Events
Death rates change over time due to:
Medical breakthroughs
Public health interventions
Lifestyle improvements
Pandemics (e.g., COVID-19)
Environmental exposures
These shifts create uncertainty for insurers and pension managers who must make long-term commitments.
2. Longevity Risk: People Live Longer Than Expected
Longevity risk occurs when:
Actual survival rates exceed forecasts
People claim pensions and annuities for more years
Retirement systems face funding shortfalls
Even small reductions in mortality can create large financial liabilities.
3. Mortality Risk: People Die Earlier Than Expected
Mortality risk matters for:
Life insurance payouts
Health systems
National demographic planning
Pandemics, disasters, or rising chronic disease can shift mortality patterns abruptly.
4. Why Mortality Forecasts Are Uncertain
The chapter explains key sources of uncertainty:
Epidemiological surprises
Social and behavioral change
Medical innovation
Environmental shocks
Cohort effects
Structural breaks (e.g., opioid crisis, pandemics)
Because of these factors, mortality forecasting is probabilistic, not deterministic.
5. How Mortality Is Modeled
The PDF outlines major models used in actuarial science:
Stochastic mortality models (e.g., Lee–Carter)
Cohort-based models
Multi-factor mortality models
Survival curves and hazard rates
Stress-testing approaches
The chapter also discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each method.
6. Longevity Risk in Pensions and Annuities
The text describes how rising life expectancy affects:
Defined benefit pension plans
Public pension systems
Private annuity providers
Key issues include:
Underfunding
Mispricing
Increased liabilities
Long-term sustainability challenges
Longevity risk is especially critical where populations are aging rapidly.
7. Tools for Managing and Transferring Longevity Risk
The chapter examines modern financial tools designed to hedge risk:
A. Longevity swaps
Transfer longevity risk from pension funds to reinsurers.
B. Longevity bonds
Securities whose payments depend on survival rates of a population.
C. Reinsurance
Sharing mortality and longevity exposures with global reinsurers.
D. Capital-market instruments
Mortality-linked derivatives, q-forwards, etc.
The chapter explains pricing principles, benefits, and limitations.
8. Policy and Regulatory Implications
Governments face:
Rising pension costs
Uncertainty about retirement age policy
Challenges to social security systems
Need for improved health and long-term care planning
Better mortality forecasting is vital for:
Public finance planning
Social insurance design
Intergenerational equity
9. Pandemics and Mortality Risk
The PDF highlights pandemics (including COVID-19) as major mortality shocks:
They temporarily reverse longevity gains
They increase volatility in mortality models
They highlight the need for robust scenario-based risk management
⭐ Overall Summary
“Mortality and Longevity: A Risk Management Perspective” provides a comprehensive framework for understanding mortality and longevity as financial risks. It explains why predicting life expectancy is uncertain, how longevity risk threatens pension and insurance systems, and what tools can be used to manage and transfer these risks. The chapter concludes that effective risk management is essential to ensure the long-term sustainability of retirement systems in aging societies....

“Medicine, Ageing & Human Longevity: The Econo “Medicine, Ageing & Human Longevity: The Economics and Ethics of Anti-Ageing Interventions”**
This PDF is a scholarly, multidisciplinary analysis of the scientific claims, economic challenges, and ethical dilemmas surrounding anti-ageing medicine and human life extension. Written by Charles McConnel and Leigh Turner, it examines the growing cultural obsession with staying young, the rise of anti-ageing technologies, the promises made by transhumanists, and the real-world social, financial, and moral consequences of extending human life.
The core message:
Anti-ageing interventions—whether futuristic technologies or today’s booming market of creams, supplements, and lifestyle therapies—bring significant economic burdens, social inequalities, ethical conflicts, and unrealistic expectations.
📘 Purpose of the Article
The article aims to:
Evaluate the promises of anti-ageing technologies (nanomedicine, gene therapy, stem cells, senescence engineering)
Critique the massive consumer-driven anti-ageing product market
Analyze economic consequences of extended human lifespan
Examine ethical dilemmas of distributing costly life-extending treatments
Highlight the mismatch between scientific hype and real evidence
Show how increased longevity reshapes pensions, healthcare, and social structures
🧠 Key Themes & Insights
1. The Transhumanist Dream of Ending Ageing
The article profiles leading figures such as:
Robert Freitas – advocates nanomedicine to “defeat death”
Aubrey de Grey – promotes “engineered negligible senescence”
These advocates view death as:
A solvable technical problem
A moral failure
A challenge biotechnology should eliminate
But the article notes they represent a small, highly optimistic minority.
2. The Massive, Already-Existing Anti-Ageing Consumer Market
Even without futuristic biotechnology, a multi-billion-dollar industry sells:
Anti-ageing creams
Hormone therapies
Botox & Restylane
Supplements & “youth formulas”
Hair restoration & ED drugs
Cosmetic procedures
Examples include “Nature’s Youth Rejuvenation Formula®” and “Pat’s Age-Defying Protein Pancake.”
The market thrives on:
Fear of ageing
Cultural obsession with youthful appearance
Weak regulation
Scientific exaggeration
3. Three Models of Anti-Ageing Interventions
The paper outlines three conceptual models:
Model 1: Compressing Morbidity
Increase healthy lifespan
Illness compressed to final years
No dramatic life extension
Model 2: Slowing Ageing
Biomedical interventions slow ageing processes
Life expectancy increases moderately
Model 3: Radical Life Extension / Immortality
Nanomedicine, gene therapy, tissue regeneration
Biological age reversed or halted
Vision promoted by transhumanists
The article stresses that none of these models currently have proven, safe medical therapies.
4. Real Concerns: Economic Pressures of Longer Life
Longer life expectancies already strain:
Pension systems
Healthcare budgets
Retirement planning
Savings and taxation models
Workforce and intergenerational balance
A longer-lived society:
Consumes more
Saves less
Needs costly medical care for chronic illness
Requires major restructuring of social programs
Even without anti-ageing breakthroughs, systems are already under strain.
5. The Social Inequality Problem
Anti-ageing medical interventions would likely be:
Expensive
Limited to wealthy individuals
Unequally distributed
This would amplify:
Health disparities
Class divisions
Inequitable access to life-extending technologies
The wealthy could live significantly longer than the poor—creating biological inequality.
6. Ethical Questions the Article Highlights
The paper raises difficult ethical dilemmas:
A. Who should get access to anti-ageing therapies?
Wealthy individuals?
Everyone equally?
Only those with medical need?
B. How to test the safety of anti-ageing drugs?
Humans would need decades-long trials.
Risks to vulnerable populations are unclear.
C. Is it ethical to sell unproven anti-ageing products today?
The current market is filled with:
Exaggerated claims
Minimal regulation
No proven benefits
The authors call for stricter oversight.
7. Reality Check: Biotechnology Won’t Easily Extend Life
The authors argue:
Humans are complex biological systems.
Ageing is multifactorial and not easily modifiable.
Gene therapy, stem cells, and nanomedicine remain speculative.
New lethal viruses, obesity, and social instability could reduce longevity.
Thus, major breakthroughs in lifespan extension remain uncertain and possibly unreachable.
⭐ Overall Summary
“Medicine, Ageing & Human Longevity” provides a rich, critical examination of anti-ageing science, markets, economics, and ethics. While futuristic visions promote defeating death, the article argues that longevity interventions raise profound economic burdens, create ethical challenges, and widen social inequalities. At the same time, the existing anti-ageing consumer market already reveals many of the problems—misleading claims, inequity, commercialization of fear, and moral ambiguity. Ultimately, the authors emphasize that societies must address social justice, economic sustainability, and ethical oversight before embracing any large-scale extension of human lifespan....

This PDF is a professional research presentation t This PDF is a professional research presentation that examines how Asia’s rapidly aging population is reshaping financial markets, pension systems, and risk management frameworks across the region. Its central theme is that longevity risk—the possibility that people live longer than expected—is rising sharply in Asia and requires innovative, multi-sector solutions involving governments, insurers, asset managers, and international risk-transfer markets.
The report emphasizes that population aging in Asia is occurring faster than anywhere else worldwide, creating urgent challenges for sustainability of pensions, healthcare financing, and long-term care systems. It also highlights how insurers and governments can prepare through better risk modeling, capital frameworks, and risk-transfer tools (like reinsurance and capital markets solutions).
🔶 1. The Growing Scale of Longevity Risk in Asia
✔ Asia is the fastest-aging region in the world
Life expectancy across Asia has increased dramatically in the last 50 years due to:
improvements in nutrition
medical advances
declining fertility
improved public health
But this demographic shift widens the gap between expected life-years and actual longevity, directly increasing longevity risk.
Managing Longevity risk in asia
✔ The financial implications are enormous
As people live longer, long-term financial obligations grow:
pension payouts increase
annuity liabilities grow
healthcare costs rise
long-term care burdens escalate
These combined pressures threaten the stability of retirement systems and can strain public finances and insurers’ balance sheets.
Managing Longevity risk in asia
🔶 2. Why Longevity Risk Is Harder to Manage in Asia
The document highlights several structural challenges:
✔ Limited historical data
Many Asian countries have shorter records of mortality data, making it harder to build reliable longevity models.
✔ Rapid pace of demographic transition
Asia is aging much faster than Europe or North America did, reducing the time available to prepare.
✔ Limited annuitization
Most retirement income systems in Asia rely on lump-sum payouts, not lifelong annuities—shifting longevity risk back to individuals.
✔ Cultural and socioeconomic diversity
Asia includes both advanced economies and emerging markets, creating highly varied risk profiles within the region.
✔ Underdeveloped risk-transfer markets
Longevity swaps, reinsurance treaties, and capital-market hedges are still emerging.
Managing Longevity risk in asia
🔶 3. Pension Systems Under Pressure
The report notes that many Asian pension systems:
face solvency and sustainability challenges
lack mandatory annuitization

This PDF is a scientific mini-review exploring how This PDF is a scientific mini-review exploring how genetics, molecular biology, and cellular mechanisms influence human ageing and lifespan. It summarizes the key genetic pathways, longevity-associated genes, cellular aging processes, and experimental findings that explain why some individuals live significantly longer than others. The paper blends insights from centenarian studies, genomic analyses, model organism research, and molecular aging theories to present a clear, up-to-date overview of longevity science.
The core message:
Ageing is shaped by a complex interaction of genes, cellular processes, and environmental influences — and understanding these mechanisms opens the door to targeted therapies that may slow aging and extend healthy lifespan.
🧬 1. Major Biological Theories of Ageing
The article introduces several foundational ageing theories:
Telomere-shortening theory – telomeres shrink with cell division, driving senescence.
Mitochondrial dysfunction theory – accumulated mitochondrial damage impairs energy production.
DNA-damage accumulation theory – ongoing genomic damage overwhelms repair systems.
These theories highlight ageing as a multifactorial, genetically regulated biological process.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
👨👩👧 2. Genetic Influence on Lifespan
Studies of families and twins show that longevity runs in families — individuals with long-lived parents have a higher chance of living longer themselves. Researchers therefore investigate specific genes that contribute to exceptional lifespan.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
🧬 3. Key Longevity-Associated Genes
FOXO3A
One of the most consistently identified “longevity genes.”
Functions include:
DNA repair
Antioxidant defense
Cellular stress resistance
Its variants strongly correlate with longevity in many populations.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
APOE
Widely studied due to its link with Alzheimer’s disease.
APOE2 and APOE3 variants → associated with longer life and lower cognitive-decline risk.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
KLOTHO
Regulates multiple ageing-related pathways and promotes:
Cognitive health
Cellular repair
Longer lifespan in animal models
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
🧬 4. Longevity Pathways: IGF-1 and Insulin Signaling
Studies in worms, flies, and mice show that reducing insulin/IGF-1 pathway activity can significantly extend lifespan.
This pathway is considered one of the central regulators of aging, influencing:
Growth
Metabolism
Stress resistance
Cellular repair
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
🍽️ 5. Caloric Restriction & Sirtuins
Caloric restriction (CR) — reduced calories without malnutrition — is one of the most powerful known ways to extend lifespan in animals.
CR activates sirtuins, especially SIRT1, which regulate:
DNA repair
Mitochondrial function
Inflammation control
Sirtuin activators like resveratrol show promising results in animal studies for lifespan extension.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
🧬 6. Telomeres & Telomerase
Telomeres protect chromosomes but shorten with every cell division. Short telomeres → aging and cellular senescence.
Telomerase can rebuild telomeres.
Longer telomeres are associated with greater longevity.
Genetic variations in telomerase-related genes may extend or limit lifespan.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
This pathway is a major target in emerging anti-aging research.
🧬 7. DNA Sequence Properties and Chromatin Organization
The paper includes a unique section analyzing how dinucleotide patterns influence DNA structure and chromatin behavior.
It discusses:
Correlations and anti-correlations between DNA dinucleotide pairs
Their effects on chromatin rigidity and bending
Their potential influence on gene regulation and aging
This part shows how deeply genome architecture itself may affect ageing.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
💊 8. Future Interventions: Senolytics & Targeted Therapies
The review highlights promising future anti-aging strategies:
Senolytics
Drugs that selectively eliminate senescent (“aged”) cells.
CR mimetics
Compounds that reproduce caloric restriction benefits.
Sirtuin activators
Boost cellular repair and stress resistance.
These therapies aim to delay age-related diseases and extend healthy lifespan.
longevity-and-genetics-unraveli…
⚖️ 9. Ethical Implications

The Longevity Exercise Guide is a clear, actionabl The Longevity Exercise Guide is a clear, actionable, science-based blueprint for building an exercise routine that maximizes both healthspan and lifespan. Written by longevity researcher Nina Patrick, PhD, the guide distills the most important forms of physical activity—strength, aerobic, anaerobic, flexibility, stability, and NEAT—into a simple weekly plan anyone can follow. The premise is that exercise is the most powerful “longevity drug” available, with research showing it prevents disease, preserves independence, and protects metabolism and cognitive function as we age.
The guide teaches you how to train your body so that at age 100, you can still perform essential daily tasks—carrying groceries, climbing stairs, hiking, balancing, lifting, and moving confidently through life. It emphasizes consistency, personalization, and a balanced mix of training styles that work together to delay aging at the cellular, metabolic, and functional levels.
🧩 What the Guide Covers
1. Strength Training — The Foundation of Aging Well
Prevents muscle loss, frailty, and poor mobility
Recommended 2–3 full-body sessions/week, 45–60 minutes
Mix of heavy low-rep strength work + lighter high-rep endurance work
Includes weights, resistance bands, and bodyweight movements
Longevity_Exercise_Guide (
Strength is directly tied to independence in old age.
2. Aerobic Exercise — Boosting Metabolism & Mitochondria
Brisk walking, running, swimming, cycling
Key for mitochondrial health, cardiovascular fitness, disease prevention
Target: 3 hours/week (150 minutes minimum)
Low-intensity “zone 2” style cardio at 65–75% max HR
Longevity_Exercise_Guide (
Aerobic training slows metabolic aging and improves energy systems.
3. Anaerobic Exercise — Increasing VO₂ Max
Short, fast, high-intensity intervals (HIIT, hard cycling, rowing)
VO₂ max is the strongest predictor of longevity
Suggested: 1–2 intense sessions per week, 30 minutes each
Longevity_Exercise_Guide (
Maintains peak cardiovascular performance as VO₂ max naturally declines with age.
4. Flexibility & Stability — Protecting Balance and Preventing Falls
Yoga, pilates, planks, stretching
Critical because falls are the #1 cause of injury and death in older adults
Enhances posture, core strength, mobility, and balance
Longevity_Exercise_Guide (
Flexibility + stability ensure you can move safely for life.
5. NEAT — The Most Overlooked Longevity Tool
Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis = everything you do outside workouts
(e.g., walking, standing, chores)
Boosts daily calorie burn
Counters modern sedentary lifestyles
Reduces metabolic disease and weight gain
Examples: daily steps, walking for errands, housework, standing more
Longevity_Exercise_Guide (
NEAT is essential because most people fail to move enough outside formal workouts.
🧭 Weekly Longevity Blueprint
The guide provides a sample week integrating all modalities:
Strength: 3 full-body sessions
Aerobic: 3 brisk walks
Anaerobic: 1 HIIT/VO₂ max workout
Flexibility/Stability: daily stretching + 1 yoga/pilates class
NEAT: daily 30-minute walk
Longevity_Exercise_Guide (
This structure covers every dimension of functional longevity.
💡 Why This Guide Matters
The Longevity Exercise Guide reframes exercise not as a fitness task but as a lifelong strategy for independence, vitality, and disease prevention. Rather than prescribing a rigid routine, it teaches how to build a personalized, sustainable program that strengthens the body’s most essential aging-related systems:
muscle strength
cardiovascular endurance
metabolic flexibility
balance and mobility
everyday movement patterns
It’s a practical roadmap for anyone who wants to age not only longer, but better....

This PDF is a philosophical and scientific Letter This PDF is a philosophical and scientific Letter to the Editor published in Geriatrics, Gerontology and Aging (2025). It explores the idea of radically extended human lifespan—possibly even reaching 1,000 years—and examines the scientific, ethical, societal, and existential implications of such extreme longevity. Written by Fausto Aloísio Pedrosa Pimenta, the article blends reflections from history, medicine, philosophy, and emerging biotechnologies to consider what the future of human aging might look like.
Rather than predicting literal 1,000-year lives, the text uses this provocative idea as a lens to examine how science and society should prepare for transformative longevity technologies.
🔶 1. Purpose and Theme
The article aims to:
Challenge how society thinks about aging
Highlight technological advances pushing lifespan boundaries
Question the ethical and psychological meaning of drastically longer lives
Discuss the responsibilities of governments and health systems in supporting healthy aging
Longevity the 1000-year-old hum…
It positions longevity not only as a biological issue but as a moral, social, and philosophical challenge.
🔶 2. Advances Driving the Possibility of Super-Long Life
The author describes several scientific frontiers that could enable dramatic lifespan extension:
✔ Genetic Engineering
New gene-editing tools—especially CRISPR-Cas9—may allow precise modifications that slow aging or enhance biological resilience.
Longevity the 1000-year-old hum…
✔ Artificial Intelligence + Supercomputing
AI may accelerate the discovery of beneficial mutations, simulate biological aging, or optimize genetic interventions.
✔ Bioelectronics & Brain Data Storage
Future technologies may allow brain information to be captured and stored, potentially merging biological and digital longevity.
✔ Senolytics
Therapies that eliminate aging cells represent a medical frontier for achieving disease-free aging.
Longevity the 1000-year-old hum…
Together, these innovations suggest a future in which humans might profoundly extend lifespan—though not without major risks.
🔶 3. Biological Inspirations for Extreme Longevity
The letter references natural organisms that demonstrate extraordinary longevity:
Turritopsis dohrnii, the “immortal jellyfish,” capable of cellular rejuvenation
The Pando clone in Utah, a self-cloning tree colony thousands of years old
Longevity the 1000-year-old hum…
These examples illustrate how biology already contains mechanisms that circumvent aging, fueling speculation about what might be possible for humans.
🔶 4. Limitations and Risks of Genetic Manipulation
The article stresses that:
Most random genetic mutations are harmful
Human lifespans are too short for natural selection to safely test longevity-enhancing mutations
Gene transfer between species may be possible but ethically complex
Longevity the 1000-year-old hum…
Thus, although technology moves fast, bioethical, safety, and effectiveness concerns must be addressed before pursuing extreme longevity.
🔶 5. Deep Philosophical Questions About Living Much Longer
The author raises profound questions:
Why live longer?

The Longevity Increment document is an official Ci The Longevity Increment document is an official City policy statement (dated 12/15/1988) that explains how longevity-based salary increases are awarded to eligible municipal employees. It defines what a longevity increment is, who qualifies for it, how it is calculated, and how it should be processed administratively.
Its core purpose is to ensure that employees with many years of continuous City service receive periodic, structured pay increases beyond their normal step progression, as recognition for long-term loyalty and experience.
🧩 Key Elements Explained
1. Definition of Longevity Increment
A longevity increment is a salary increase granted after an employee completes a specified number of years of City service, based on their representative organization (such as C.M.E.A, C.U.B, or M.A.P.S.).
Longevity Increment
It is processed using a signed CHANGE NOTICE (28-1618-5143) once the employee meets all criteria (years of service, time in grade).
2. How the Increase Is Calculated
The increment amount is:
A fixed percentage of the maximum step in the employee’s salary grade
or
A flat salary amount, depending on the employee’s representative organization.
Longevity Increment
To determine the exact value, staff must consult the specific Salary Schedule associated with the employee group.
3. Eligible Service Milestones
Longevity increments are awarded at 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 years of service.
Longevity Increment
Special rule:
M.A.P.S. employees are not eligible for the 30-year increment.
Their eligibility is also tied to how long they have served beyond the maximum merit step of their salary grade.
4. Effective Date Rules
The effective date for longevity increments follows the same rules and procedures used for other salary changes in City employment.
Longevity Increment
5. Related Policy References
The document links to governing policies:
AM-205-1 – SALARY
AM-290 – SALARY SCHEDULES

This PDF is a high-level evolutionary biology rese This PDF is a high-level evolutionary biology research article published in PNAS that investigates why some mammals live longer than others. It tests a powerful hypothesis:
Mammals that live in trees (arboreal species) evolve longer lifespans because tree-living reduces external sources of death such as predators, disease, and environmental hazards.
Using a massive dataset of 776 mammalian species, the study compares lifespan, body size, and habitat across nearly all mammalian clades. It provides one of the strongest empirical tests of evolutionary ageing theory in mammals.
The core message:
Arboreal mammals live significantly longer than terrestrial mammals, even after accounting for body size and evolutionary history — supporting the evolutionary theory of ageing and clarifying why primates (including humans) evolved long lifespans.
🌳 1. Why Arboreality Should Increase Longevity
Evolutionary ageing theory predicts:
High extrinsic mortality (predators, disease, accidents) → earlier ageing, shorter lifespan
Low extrinsic mortality → slower ageing, longer lifespan
Tree living offers protection:
Harder for predators to attack
Less exposure to ground hazards
Improved escape options
Therefore, species that spend more time in trees should evolve greater lifespan and delayed senescence.
Longevity in mammals
📊 2. Dataset and Methodology
The paper analyzes:
776 species of non-flying, non-aquatic mammals
Lifespan records (mostly from captive data for accurate maxima)
Species classified into:
Arboreal
Semiarboreal
Terrestrial
Body mass as a key covariate
Phylogenetically independent contrasts (PIC) to remove evolutionary bias
This allows a robust test of whether habitat causes differences in longevity.
Longevity in mammals
🕒 3. Main Findings
⭐ A. Arboreal mammals live longer
Across mammals, tree-living species have significantly longer maximum lifespans than terrestrial ones when body size is held constant.
Longevity in mammals
⭐ B. The pattern holds in most mammalian groups
In 8 out of 10 subclades, arboreal species live longer than terrestrial relatives.
⭐ C. Exceptions reveal evolutionary history
Two groups do not show this pattern:
Primates & Their Close Relatives (Euarchonta)
Arboreal and terrestrial species do not differ significantly
Likely because primates evolved from highly arboreal ancestors
Their long lifespan may have been established early and retained
Even terrestrial primates inherit long-living traits
Longevity in mammals
Marsupials (Metatheria)
No longevity advantage for arboreal vs. terrestrial species
Marsupials in general are not long-lived, regardless of habitat
Longevity in mammals
⭐ D. Squirrels provide a clear example
Within Sciuroidea:
Arboreal squirrels live longer than terrestrial squirrels
Semiarboreal species fall in between
Longevity in mammals
🔎 4. Why Primates Are a Special Case
The article provides an important evolutionary insight:
Primates did not gain longevity from becoming arboreal — they were already arboreal.
Arboreality is the ancestral primate condition
Long lifespan likely evolved early as primates adapted to tree life
Later terrestrial primates (baboons, humans) retained this long-lived biology
Additional survival strategies (large body size, social structures, intelligence) further reduce predation
Longevity in mammals
This helps explain why humans—the most terrestrial primate—still have extremely long lifespans.
🧬 5. Evolutionary Significance
The study strongly supports evolutionary ageing theory:
Low extrinsic mortality → slower ageing
Arboreality functions like a protective “life-extending shield”
Similar patterns seen in flying mammals (bats) and gliding mammals
Reduced risk environments create selection pressure for longer lives
Longevity in mammals
🐾 6. Additional Insights
✔️ Body size explains ~60% of lifespan variation
Larger mammals generally live longer, but habitat explains additional differences.
✔️ Arboreal habitats evolve multiple times
Many mammal groups that shifted from ground to trees repeatedly evolved greater longevity — independently.
✔️ Sociality reduces predation too
Large social groups (e.g., in primates and some marsupials) reduce predator risk, altering ageing patterns.
Longevity in mammals
⭐ Overall Summary
This PDF provides a groundbreaking comparative analysis showing that arboreal mammals live longer than terrestrial mammals, validating key predictions of evolutionary ageing theory. It demonstrates that reduced exposure to predators and environmental hazards in tree habitats leads to delayed ageing and increased lifespan. While most mammals follow this pattern, primates and marsupials are exceptions due to their unique evolutionary histories — particularly primates, who long ago evolved the long-living biology that humans still carry today.
This study is one of the most compelling demonstrations of how ecology, behavior, and evolutionary history shape lifespan across mammals....

“Longevity and Occupational Choice” is one of the “Longevity and Occupational Choice” is one of the most comprehensive studies ever conducted on how a person’s job affects their lifespan. Using administrative death records for over 4 million individuals across four major U.S. states—representing 15% of the national population—the authors show that occupation is a powerful, independent predictor of longevity, on par with major demographic determinants like gender.
Even after controlling for income, location, race, ethnicity, and detailed socioeconomic variables, the paper finds large multi-year differences in life expectancy across occupations. The magnitude is striking: just as women live about three years longer than men, some occupations confer several years of additional life—or several years lost.
Longer-lived occupations are those with:
More outdoor work
More physical activity
Higher social interaction
Lower stress
Higher job meaningfulness
Shorter-lived occupations tend to involve:
Indoor, sedentary work
Isolation
High stress
Low perceived meaning
These job-related characteristics remain strongly associated with lifespan even among people living in the same ZIP code and earning similar incomes.
The study also connects occupations to specific causes of death. Outdoor occupations (farming, fishing, forestry) have the lowest heart-disease mortality, while stressful jobs such as construction show higher cancer mortality, possibly because stress influences chronic inflammation and health behaviors like smoking or poor diet.
Importantly, the authors show that:
Occupation predicts longevity as well as income, and in many cases better, once local differences are considered.
The nature of work—its physical, social, and psychological qualities—forms a core part of a person’s long-term health capital.
The paper concludes with major implications for retirement planning, pension funding, workplace design, and public health policy, arguing that longevity inequality is not only about wealth and geography but also deeply rooted in the structure of work itself....

“Longevity and GAPDH Stability in Bivalves and Mam “Longevity and GAPDH Stability in Bivalves and Mammals” is a comparative gerontology study showing that exceptionally long-lived species maintain dramatically superior protein stability, and that this trait may be a key biological foundation of extreme longevity.
Using the enzyme GAPDH as a reporter for proteostasis, the authors test how well this essential, highly conserved protein maintains its structure and function under chemical stress (increasing concentrations of urea) across species with maximum lifespans ranging from 3 to 507 years. The findings reveal a striking, almost linear relationship between lifespan and protein stability.
The star of the study is the bivalve Arctica islandica, the longest-lived non-colonial animal on Earth (up to 507 years). Its GAPDH retains 45% activity even in 6 M urea, a concentration that completely destroys GAPDH activity in short-lived species such as Ruditapes (7-year lifespan) and even in standard laboratory mice. Humans and baboons also outperform mice, but none approach the proteomic resilience of long-lived bivalves.
The study rules out several possible stabilizing mechanisms:
Removing small molecules (<30 kDa), including most small heat shock proteins, does not impair stability.
Removing all N-linked and O-linked glycosylation also does not reduce stability.
This means the extreme proteostatic resistance of A. islandica must arise from other, yet-unknown factors, likely built into the inherent properties of its proteins or proteome-wide systems.
Because proteostasis collapse is central to aging and neurodegenerative diseases—and because long-lived species manage to prevent this collapse for centuries—the authors propose that identifying these stabilizing mechanisms could reveal new therapeutic strategies for protein-misfolding diseases (like Alzheimer’s) and possibly point toward interventions that slow aging itself.
In summary, the paper demonstrates that:
Protein stability is strongly correlated with species longevity.
Arctica islandica possesses extraordinary proteostasis, unmatched even by long-lived mammals.
The mechanisms behind this resistance remain unknown but are likely key to understanding extreme lifespan and age-related disease resistance.
This research establishes GAPDH stability as a powerful, convenient biomarker for comparative aging studies and highlights bivalves as a uniquely promising model for uncovering the biochemical secrets of long life....

The Life Expectancy Table is a straightforward act The Life Expectancy Table is a straightforward actuarial reference chart presenting remaining years of life expectancy for males and females at every age from 0 to 119. It reflects standard mortality assumptions used in insurance, pensions, demographic forecasting, and public planning.
The table shows how life expectancy declines with age, while consistently demonstrating the well-established pattern that females live longer than males at every age. For example:
At birth: Male 74.14 years, Female 79.45 years
At age 50: Male 27.85 years, Female 31.75 years
At age 80: Male 7.31 years, Female 8.95 years
As age increases, the remaining life expectancy declines progressively but never reaches zero — even at age 119, there is still a small remaining expectancy (0.56 years), showing that actuarial models always assign a non-zero survival probability at extreme ages.
The table is formatted into two continuous sections, covering:
Ages 0–59, with life expectancy decreasing gradually from childhood into midlife
Ages 60–119, where mortality accelerates and expectancy declines more sharply
This tool allows actuaries, policymakers, and planners to:
Estimate longevity for retirement planning
Assess future benefit payments in pensions and insurance
Model population aging
Compare male–female longevity differences across the lifespan
Its purpose is purely quantitative: to provide a standardized, age-specific benchmark of expected remaining years of life for both sexes based on current mortality patterns....

This PDF is a scientific study examining how adult This PDF is a scientific study examining how adult diet affects female longevity (lifespan) and reproductive capacity (egg production) in an insect species. The research focuses on understanding how nutritional quality after adulthood influences:
how long females live,
how many eggs they produce, and
how diet shapes the trade-off between survival and reproduction.
The study is part of entomological (insect biology) research and has direct relevance to pest management, ecological modeling, and understanding insect life-history evolution.
📌 Main Objective of the Study
To determine how different adult food sources influence:
Female lifespan
Reproductive output (number of eggs laid)
The timing of reproduction
The balance between survival and reproductive investment
The researchers test whether richer diets increase reproduction at the cost of shorter life—or extend lifespan by improving physiological condition.
🧪 Method Overview
Females were provided different types of adult food, such as:
Carbohydrate-rich diets
Protein-rich diets
Natural food sources (like host plant materials or prey)
Control diets (minimal or no nutrition)
The study measured:
Lifespan (in days)
Pre-oviposition period (time before starting to lay eggs)
Lifetime fecundity (total eggs produced)
Daily egg-laying rate
Survival curves under different diets
🐞 Key Scientific Findings
1. Adult diet has a major impact on female lifespan
Nutrient-rich food significantly increases longevity.
Females deprived of proper adult food show rapid mortality.
2. Reproductive capacity strongly depends on adult nutrition
Well-fed females lay more eggs overall.
Poor diets reduce or completely suppress egg production.
3. There is a diet-driven trade-off between lifespan and reproduction
Some diets maximize egg production but shorten lifespan.
Other diets increase longevity but reduce reproductive output.
Balanced diets support both survival and reproduction.
4. The timing of reproduction shifts with diet
Nutrient-rich females begin egg-laying earlier.
Poorly nourished females delay reproduction—or cannot reproduce at all.
5. Physiological mechanisms
The study suggests that improved adult diet enhances:
Ovary development
Energy allocation to egg maturation
Overall metabolic health
🌱 Biological & Practical Importance
The results show that adult nutrition is a critical determinant of:
Female insect population growth
Pest resurgence potential
Biological control success
Evolution of life-history traits
In applied entomology, understanding these relationships helps predict:
Population dynamics
Reproduction cycles
Control strategy effectiveness
🧾 Overall Conclusion
The PDF concludes that adult food quality strongly influences both survival and reproductive performance in female insects.
Better nutrition leads to:
✔ longer lifespan
✔ higher reproductive capacity
✔ earlier reproduction
✔ stronger fitness overall
The study demonstrates that adult-stage diet is just as important as juvenile diet in shaping insect life-history strategies....

This PDF is a comprehensive demographic presentati This PDF is a comprehensive demographic presentation that explains how human longevity has increased over the past 250 years, the biological, social, and medical drivers behind those improvements, and whether there is a true limit to human lifespan. Created by John R. Wilmoth, one of the world’s leading demographers and former director of the UN Population Division, the document provides historical data, scientific analysis, and future projections on global life expectancy.
It combines global mortality statistics, historical transitions in causes of death, medical breakthroughs, and theoretical debates to explain how humans moved from a world where average life expectancy was 30 years to a world where it routinely exceeds 80—and may continue rising.
🔶 1. Purpose of the Presentation
The PDF aims to:
Trace the historical rise of life expectancy
Explain age patterns of mortality and how they shifted
Identify medical, social, and historical reasons for increased longevity
Examine the debate about biological limits to lifespan
Forecast future trends in global life expectancy
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
🔶 2. Historical Increase of Longevity
The document shows dramatic gains in life expectancy from the 18th century to the 21st century.
⭐ Key historical facts:
Prehistoric humans: 20–35 years average life expectancy
Sweden in 1750s: 36 years
USA in 1900: 48 years
France in 1950: 66 years
Japan in 2007: 83 years with <3 infant deaths per 1,000 births
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
Charts show life expectancy trends for France, India, Japan, Western Europe, and global regions from 1816–2009.
🔶 3. Changing Age Patterns of Mortality
The PDF shows how the distribution of death has shifted across ages:
In 1900, many deaths occurred at young ages.
By 1995, most deaths were concentrated at older ages.
Survival curves show people living longer and dying more uniformly later in life.
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
The interquartile range of ages at death shrunk dramatically in Sweden from 1751 to 1995, meaning life has become more predictable and deaths occur later and closer together.
🔶 4. Medical Causes of Mortality Decline
The document clearly identifies the medical advances that propelled longevity increases.
⭐ A. Infectious Disease Decline
Driven by:
Sanitation and clean water
Public health reforms
Hygiene
Antibiotics and sulfonamides
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
⭐ B. Cardiovascular Disease Decline
Due to:
Reduction in smoking
Healthier diets (lower saturated fat and cholesterol)
Hypertension and cholesterol control
Modern cardiology, diagnostics, and emergency care
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
⭐ C. Cancer Mortality Trends
The report distinguishes between:
Infectious-cause cancers (e.g., stomach, liver, uterus)
Non-infectious cancers (lung, breast, colon, pancreas, etc.)
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
Declines in cancer mortality result from:
Infection control (H. pylori, HPV, hepatitis)
Declining smoking rates
Better treatment and earlier detection
🔶 5. Epidemiological Transitions in Human History
The PDF provides a timeline of how the major causes of death shifted as societies developed:
Type of Society Major Cause of Death
Hunter-gatherer Injuries
Agricultural Infectious disease
Industrial Cardiovascular disease
High-tech Cancer
Future Senescence (frailty/aging)
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
This framework shows the progression from external dangers to internal biological aging as the main determinant of mortality.
🔶 6. Social and Historical Causes of Longevity Increase
Beyond medicine, several societal forces drove longevity gains:
Rising incomes → better nutrition & housing
Science and technology advances
Application of scientific knowledge (public health, medical care)
Improved safety (e.g., fewer road accidents)
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
A chart shows the strong correlation between national GDP per capita and life expectancy, with richer countries achieving much longer lives.
🔶 7. Are There Limits to Human Lifespan?
The PDF examines one of the most famous debates in demographics:
⭐ Maximum Lifespan
Evidence shows:
The oldest age at death (recorded globally and nationally) has increased over time.
Jeanne Calment (122 years) and Christian Mortensen (115 years) exemplify trends.
Sweden’s maximum age at death rose steadily from 1861–2007.
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
There is no clear evidence of a fixed biological ceiling.
⭐ Average Lifespan
Mortality rates continue to fall in many countries.
Nations like Japan still make significant gains despite already high longevity.
No sign of stagnation or convergence at a limit.
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
🔶 8. Summary of Longevity Trends
Indicator Before 1960 After 1970
Average lifespan Increased rapidly Increased moderately
Maximum lifespan Increased slowly Increased moderately
Variability Decreased rapidly Stable
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
Even though gains have slowed, longevity continues to rise in both average and maximal terms.
🔶 9. Future Projections
UN projections (2009) suggest continued global improvements:
World life expectancy: 68 → 72 → 76 (2009–2049)
Developed countries: 77 → 83+
Japan: 83 → 87
Developing countries also show large gains (India, China, Brazil, Nigeria)
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
🔶 10. Final Lessons of History
The PDF closes with four key insights:
Mortality decline is driven by humanity’s deep desire for longer life.
Past improvements resulted from multiple causes, not a single breakthrough.
Likewise, no single factor will stop future increases.
With economic growth and political stability, there are no obvious limits to further gains in human longevity.
Increase of Human Longevity Pas…
⭐ Perfect One-Sentence Summary
This PDF provides a comprehensive historical and scientific explanation of how human life expectancy has increased over time, why deaths have shifted to older ages, what medical and social forces drove these improvements, and why there is no clear biological limit preventing future gains in human longevity....

The PDF is a historical and medical editorial disc The PDF is a historical and medical editorial discussing human longevity. It compares ancient observations, historical case reports, and modern scientific understanding to explore why some individuals live exceptionally long lives—sometimes beyond 100 or even 150 years (as documented in rare historical cases).
The article emphasizes that the factors linked to long life today—such as healthy habits, clean air, moderate diet, physical activity, and low exposure to harmful substances—were already recognized centuries ago by physicians, philosophers, and early researchers.
The document uses historical records (such as Easton’s 1799 compilation of long-lived individuals) and medical anecdotes to highlight enduring truths about what contributes to human longevity.
📜 Key Themes of the PDF
1. Historical Evidence of Longevity
The article begins by summarizing Easton’s 1799 report documenting 1,712 individuals who lived 100 years or more, spanning periods from 66 A.D. to 1799.
During the 18th century, mortality was extremely high—half of all children died before age 10—yet some people still lived beyond 100, demonstrating that long life is possible even in harsh conditions.
2. Philosophical and Early Medical Insights
The article cites ancient thinkers such as Seneca, who said:
“Life is long if you know how to use it.”
Easton’s writing is also quoted extensively, noting timeless principles:
Lifestyle matters more than wealth or medicine
Simple diets, fresh air, physical work, and exposure to nature foster longevity
Polluted air, overeating, tobacco, alcohol, and inactivity shorten life
These observations match modern public health findings.
3. Example of an Extreme Long-lived Individual
A major part of the article recounts the famous case of Thomas Parr, allegedly aged 152 years when he died in 1635.
The report includes remarkable details:
Married first at age 38, became a father at over 100
Worked in agriculture into his 130s
Lived on simple foods: milk, bread, cheese, small beer
After moving to London and adopting a rich diet, his health rapidly deteriorated
A postmortem by William Harvey, the discoverer of blood circulation, showed his organs were surprisingly healthy for his age
This case is used to highlight how lifestyle disruption can harm longevity.
4. Modern Confirmation of Ancient Wisdom
The editorial argues that risk factors we focus on today were recognized centuries ago, including:
Air pollution
Obesity
Heavy tobacco use
Excessive alcohol consumption
High saturated-fat diets
Lack of physical exercise
The article’s message:
The basic rules for long life have not changed.
5. Scientific Vindication of Traditional Practices
The final section shifts to another medical story showing how traditional or “primitive” remedies were later validated by scientific research.
Example:
Pernicious anemia was once fatal
Observations showed that eating liver improved the condition
Years later, vitamin B12 was discovered in liver and identified as the key therapeutic factor
Minot, Murphy, and Whipple earned the Nobel Prize in 1934 for this discovery
This reinforces the theme that earlier observations often contain truths confirmed later by science.
🧾 Overall Conclusion
The PDF argues that human longevity is governed by simple, well-known principles:
💠 Fresh air
💠 Physical activity
💠 Moderate diet
💠 Low stress
💠 Avoidance of excess (tobacco, alcohol, overeating)
💠 Clean environments
These insights have been recognized for centuries and remain supported by modern research.
The article blends historical records, medical anecdotes, and scientific reflections to illustrate that while medicine has advanced greatly, the foundational lifestyle elements that promote long life remain unchanged.

This PDF is a scholarly critique and clarification This PDF is a scholarly critique and clarification published in the Journal of Human Evolution (2005), written by anthropologists Kristen Hawkes and James F. O’Connell. It examines and challenges a high-profile claim that human longevity is a recent evolutionary development, supposedly emerging only in the Upper Paleolithic. The document argues that the method used in the original study is flawed and does not accurately measure longevity in fossil populations.
Through comparative primate data, demographic theory, and paleodemographic evidence, the authors demonstrate that fossil death assemblages do not reliably reflect actual population age structures, and therefore cannot be used to claim that modern humans only recently evolved long life.
🔶 1. Purpose of the Article
This paper responds to Caspari & Lee (2004), who argued:
Older adults were rare in earlier hominins (Australopiths, Homo erectus, Neanderthals).
Long-lived older adults first became common with Upper Paleolithic modern humans.
This increase in longevity contributed to modern human evolutionary success.
Hawkes and O’Connell show that these conclusions are unsupported, because the age ratio Caspari & Lee used is not a valid measure of longevity.
🔶 2. Background: The Original Claim
Caspari & Lee analyzed fossil teeth using:
Third molar (M3) eruption to mark adulthood.
Tooth wear to classify “young adults” vs. “old adults.”
Calculated a ratio of old-to-young adult dentitions (OY ratio).
Their findings:
Fossil Group O/Y Ratio
Australopiths 0.12
Homo erectus 0.25
Neanderthals 0.39
Upper Paleolithic modern humans 2.08
They interpreted the dramatic jump in the OY ratio for modern humans as evidence of a major increase in longevity late in human evolution.
🔶 3. Main Argument of the Authors
Hawkes and O’Connell argue that:
⭐ The OY ratio does NOT measure longevity.
Even if ages are correctly estimated, the ratio is strongly influenced by:
Preservation bias (older bones deteriorate more)
Estimation errors (tooth wear ages are imprecise)
Non-random sampling of deaths
Archaeological context (burial practices, living conditions)
Thus, high or low representation of older adults in a fossil assemblage may reflect postmortem processes, not real lifespan differences.
🔶 4. Key Evidence Provided
⭐ A. Cross-primate comparison
The authors calculate OY ratios for:
Japanese macaques
Chimpanzees
Modern human hunter-gatherers
Despite huge differences in their real lifespans:
Macaques live ≈ 30 years
Chimpanzees ≈ 40–50 years
Humans ≈ 70+ years
Their O/Y ratios are nearly identical:
Species O/Y Ratio
Macaques 0.97
Chimpanzees 1.09
Humans 1.12
This proves that if the metric worked, there would be very little variation in OY ratios—even between species with very different longevity.
Therefore, the extreme fossil ratios (e.g., 0.12 to 2.08) cannot reflect real lifespan differences.
How old is human longevity
⭐ B. Paleodemographic Problems
The paper explains why skeletal assemblages almost never reflect real population age structures:
Age estimation errors (especially for adults)
Poor preservation of older individuals’ bones
Non-random sampling of deaths (cultural, ecological, and taphonomic factors)
Even large skeletal samples cannot be assumed to represent living populations.
How old is human longevity
🔶 5. Theoretical Implications
If Caspari & Lee’s OY ratios were valid, they would contradict:
Stable population theory
Known mammalian life-history invariants
Primate patterns linking maturity age with lifespan
Since all primates show a fixed proportional relationship between age at maturity and adult lifespan, drastic jumps in the OY ratio are biologically implausible.
Instead, the variation seen in fossil OY ratios most likely reflects sample bias, not evolutionary change.
🔶 6. Final Conclusion
Hawkes and O’Connell conclude:
❌ The claim that human longevity suddenly increased in the Upper Paleolithic is unsupported.
❌ Fossil age ratios do not measure longevity.
✔ Differences in OY ratios across fossil assemblages reflect archaeological and preservation biases, not biological evolution.
They emphasize that interpreting fossil age structures requires extreme caution, and that modern demographic and primate comparative data provide essential context for understanding ancient life histories.
⭐ Perfect One-Sentence Summary
This PDF demonstrates that the fossil tooth-wear ratio used to claim a late emergence of human longevity is not a valid measure of lifespan, and that differences across fossil assemblages reflect sampling and preservation biases—not real evolutionary changes in human longevity....

The PDF is a clinical research article that invest The PDF is a clinical research article that investigates how long patients with chronic medical conditions live, and how their survival compares with that of the general population. The study focuses on using cohort survival analysis to estimate life expectancy after diagnosis for individuals with chronic diseases.
The document is designed to help clinicians, patients, and caregivers better understand:
the prognosis of chronic illnesses,
the expected years of life after diagnosis, and
variations in survival based on disease type, risk factors, and demographics.
The study includes both model-based projections and observed survival curves from multiple patient populations.
📌 Main Purpose of the PDF
To provide accurate survival estimates for chronic disease patients by analyzing:
life expectancy after diagnosis,
mortality rates over time,
relative survival compared with age-matched individuals,
the effect of disease severity and comorbidities.
The paper aims to offer practical, medically meaningful data for planning long-term patient care.
🏥 Diseases Analyzed
The document examines survival patterns for multiple chronic illnesses (as shown in the extracted table), including:
Diabetes
Hypertension
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Coronary artery disease
Cancer (various types)
Heart failure
Chronic kidney disease
Each condition has its own survival profile, reflecting its unique biological and clinical course.
📊 Key Findings
1. Survival varies greatly by disease type.
Some diseases show relatively long survival (e.g., controlled hypertension), while others show rapid decline (e.g., advanced heart failure or late-stage cancer).
2. Life expectancy decreases significantly with disease severity.
Mild and moderate stages allow longer survival.
Severe stages reduce life expectancy sharply.
3. Age at diagnosis has a major effect.
Younger patients typically lose more potential life years, even if they survive longer after diagnosis.
4. Comorbidities worsen survival outcomes.
Patients with multiple chronic conditions have significantly lower life expectancy than those with a single disease.
📈 Data & Tables Provided
The PDF includes a major table that lists:
Years lived after diagnosis

This PDF is a scientific and conceptual exploratio This PDF is a scientific and conceptual exploration of the exceptionally long lifespan of the Greenland shark (Somniosus microcephalus), one of the longest-living vertebrates on Earth, and what its unique biology can teach us about human aging and longevity. The document blends marine biology, evolutionary science, aging research, and comparative physiology to explain how and why the Greenland shark can live for centuries, and which of those mechanisms may inspire future breakthroughs in human life-extension.
🔶 1. Purpose of the Document
The paper has two main goals:
To summarize what is known about the Greenland shark’s extreme longevity
To discuss how its biological traits might inform human aging research
It provides a bridge between animal longevity science and human gerontology, making it relevant for researchers, students, and longevity scholars.
🔶 2. The Greenland Shark: A Longevity Outlier
The Greenland shark is introduced as:
The longest-lived vertebrate known to science
Estimated lifespan: 272 to 500+ years
Mature only at 150 years of age
Lives in the deep, cold waters of the Arctic and North Atlantic
The document emphasizes that its lifespan far exceeds that of whales, tortoises, and other long-lived species.
🔶 3. How Its Age Is Measured
The PDF describes how researchers used radiocarbon dating of eye lens proteins—the same method used in archeology—to determine the shark’s age.
Key points:
Eye lens proteins form before birth and never regenerate
Bomb radiocarbon traces from the 1950s provide a global timestamp
This allows scientists to estimate individual ages with high precision
🔶 4. Biological Factors Behind the Shark’s Longevity
The paper discusses multiple mechanisms that may explain its extraordinary lifespan:
⭐ Slow Metabolism
Lives in near-freezing water
Exhibits extremely slow growth (1 cm per year)
Low metabolic rate reduces cell damage over time
⭐ Cold Environment
Cold temperatures reduce oxidative stress
Proteins and enzymes degrade more slowly
⭐ Minimal Predation & Low Activity
Slow-moving and top of its food chain
Low energy expenditure
⭐ DNA Stability & Repair (Hypothesized)
Potentially enhanced DNA repair systems
Resistance to cancer and cellular senescence
⭐ Extended Development and Late Maturity
Reproductive maturity at ~150 years
Suggests an evolutionary investment in somatic maintenance over early reproduction
These mechanisms collectively support the concept that slow living = long living.
🔶 5. Evolutionary Insights
The document highlights that Greenland sharks follow an evolutionary strategy of:
Slow growth
Late reproduction
Reduced cellular damage
Enhanced long-term survival
This strategy resembles that of other long-lived species (e.g., bowhead whales, naked mole rats) and supports life-history theories of longevity.
🔶 6. Implications for Human Longevity Research
The PDF connects shark biology to human aging questions, suggesting several research implications:
⭐ Metabolic Rate and Aging
Slower metabolic processes may reduce oxidative damage
Could inspire therapies that mimic metabolic slow-down without harming function
⭐ DNA Repair & Cellular Maintenance
Studying shark genetics may reveal protective pathways
Supports research into genome stability and cancer suppression
⭐ Protein Stability at Low Temperatures
Sharks preserve tissue integrity for centuries
May inspire cryopreservation and protein stability research
⭐ Longevity Without Cognitive Decline
Sharks remain functional for centuries
Encourages study of brain aging resilience
The document stresses that while humans cannot adopt cold-water lifestyles, the shark’s biology offers clues to preventing molecular damage, a key factor in aging.
🔶 7. Broader Scientific Significance
The report argues that Greenland shark longevity challenges assumptions about:
Aging speed
Environmental impacts on lifespan
Biological limits of vertebrate aging
It contributes to a growing body of comparative longevity research seeking to understand how some species achieve extreme lifespan and disease resistance.
🔶 8. Conclusion
The PDF concludes that the Greenland shark represents a natural experiment in extreme longevity, offering valuable biological insights that could advance human aging research. While humans cannot replicate the shark’s cold, slow metabolism, studying its physiology and genetics may help uncover pathways that extend lifespan and healthspan in people.
⭐ Perfect One-Sentence Summary
This PDF provides a scientific overview of the Greenland shark’s extraordinary centuries-long lifespan and explores how its unique biology—slow metabolism, environmental adaptation, and exceptional cellular maintenance—may offer important clues for advancing human longevity....

ABSTRACT: This research aims to investigate whether climate has an impact on life expectancy. In analyzing economic data from 172 countries that are publicly available from the United Nations World Economic Situation and Prospects 2019, as well as classifying all countries from different regions into hot or cold climate categories, the authors were able to single out income, education, sanitation, healthcare, ethnicity, and diet as constant factors to objectively quantify life expectancy. By measuring life expectancies as indicated by the climate, a comprehensible correlation can be built of whether the climate plays a vital role in prolonging human life expectancy and which type of climate would best support human life. Information gathered and analyzed from examination focused on the contention that human life expectancy can be increased living in colder regions. According to the research, an individual is likely to live an extra 2.2163 years in colder regions solely based on the country’s income status and climate, while completely ruling out genetics. KEYWORDS: Earth and Environmental Sciences; Life expectancy; Climate Science; Longevity; Income groups.
To better understand the study, it is crucial to understand the difference between life span, life expectancy, and longevity. According to the United Nations Population Division, life expectancy at birth is defined as “the average number of years that a newborn could expect to live if he or she were to pass through life subject to the age-specific mortality rates of a given period.” ¹ When addressing the life expectancy of a country, it refers to the mean life span of the populace in that country. This factual normal is determined dependent on a populace in general, including the individuals who die during labor, soon after labor, during puberty or adulthood, the individuals who die in war, and the individuals who live well into mature age. On the other hand, according to News Medical Life Sciences, life span refers to “the maximum number of years that a person can expect to live based on the greatest number of years anyone from the same data set has lived.” ² Taking humans as the model, the oldest recorded age attained by any living individual is 122 years, thereby implicating that human beings have a lifespan of at least 122 years. Life span is also known as longevity. As life expectancy has been extended, factors that affect it have been substantially debated. Consensus on factors that influence life expectancy include gender, ethnicity, pollution, climate change, literacy rate, healthcare access, and income level. Other changeable lifestyle factors also have an impact on life expectancy, including but not limited to, exercise, alcohol, smoking and diet. Nevertheless, life expectancy has for the most part continuously increased over time. The authors’ study aims to quantify and study the factors that affect human life expectancy. According to the American Journal of Physical Anthropology, Neolithic and Bronze Age data collected suggests life expectancy was an average of 36 years for both men and women. ³ Hunter-gatherers had a higher life expectancy than farmers as agriculture was not common yet and
people would resort to hunting and foraging food for survival. From then, life expectancy has been shown to be an upward trend, with most studies suggesting that by the late medieval English era, life expectancy of an aristocrat could be as much as 64 years; a figure that closely resembles the life expectancy of many populations around the world today. The increase in life expectancy is attributed to the advancements made in sanitation, education, and lodging during the nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries, causing a consistent decrease in early and midlife mortality. Additionally, great progress made in numerous regions of well-being and health, such as the discovery of antibiotics, the green revolution that increased agricultural production, the enhancement of maternal and child survival, and mortality from infectious diseases, particularly human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/ AIDS, tuberculosis (TB), malaria, and neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), has declined. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), global average life expectancy has increased by 5.5 years between 2000 and 2016, which has been notably the fastest increase since the 1950s.⁴ As per the United Nations World Population Prospects, life expectancy will continue to display an upward trend in all regions of the world. However, the average life expectancy isn’t predicted to grow exponentially as it has these past few decades. Projected increases in life expectancy in Northern America, Europe and Latin American and the Caribbean are expected to become more gradual and stagnant, while projections for Africa continue at a much higher rate compared to the rest of the world. Asia is expected to match the global average by the year 2050. Differences in life expectancy across regions of the world are estimated to persist even into the future due to the differences in group incomes, however, income disparity between regions is forecasted to diminish significantly by 2050 ...

Consensus Recommendation to Immediately Expand Res Consensus Recommendation to Immediately Expand Research on Extending Healthy Human Lifespans
For millennia, the consensus of the general public has been that aging is inevitable. For most of our history, even getting to old age was a significant accomplishment – and while centenarians have been around at least since the time of the Greeks, aging was never of major interest to medicine.
That has changed. Longevity medicine has entered the mainstream. First, evidence accumulated that lifestyle modifications prevent chronic diseases of aging and extend healthspan, the healthy and highly functional period of life. More recently, longevity research has made great progress – aging has been found to be malleable and hundreds of interventional strategies have been identified that extend lifespan and healthspan in animal models. Human clinical studies are underway, and already early results suggest that the biological age of an individual is modifiable.
A concerted effort has been made in the longevity field to institutionalize the word “healthspan”. Why healthspan (how long we stay healthy) and not its side-effect of lifespan (how long we live)? The reasons are linked more to perception than reality. Fundamental to this need to highlight healthspan is the idea that individuals get when they are asked if they want to live longer. Many imagine their parents or grandparents at the end of their lives when they often have major health issues and low quality of life. Then they conclude that they would not choose to live longer in that condition. This is counter to longevity research findings, which show that it is possible to intervene in late middle life and extend both healthspan and lifespan simultaneously. Emphasizing healthspan also reduces concerns of some individuals about whether it is ethical to live longer.
A drawback of this exists, though: many current longevity interventions may extend healthspan more than lifespan. Lifestyle interventions such as exercise probably fit this mold. Many interventions that have dramatic health-extending effects in invertebrate models have more modest effects in mice, and there is a concern that they will be further reduced in humans. In other words, the drugs and small molecules that we are excited about today may, despite their hefty development costs and lengthy approval processes, only extend average healthspan by five or ten years and may not extend maximum lifespan at all. Make no mistake, this would still represent a revolution in medical practice! A five-year extension in human healthspan, with equitable access for all people, would save trillions per year in healthcare costs, provide extra life quality across the entire population ...

Abstract
Trends in human longevity are puzzling, especially when considering the limits of
human longevity. Partially, the conflicting assertions are based upon demographic
evidence and the interpretation of survival and mortality curves using the Gompertz
model and the Weibull model; these models are sometimes considered to be incomplete
in describing the entire curves. In this paper a new model is proposed to take the place
of the traditional models. We directly analysed the rectangularity (the parts of the curves
being shaped like a rectangle) of survival curves for 17 countries and for 1876-2001 in
Switzerland (it being one of the longest-lived countries) with a new model. This model
is derived from the Weibull survival function and is simply described by two parameters,
in which the shape parameter indicates ‘rectangularity’ and characteristic life indicates
the duration for survival to be ‘exp(-1) % 79.3 6≈ ’. The shape parameter is essentially a
function of age and it distinguishes humans from technical devices. We find that
although characteristic life has increased up to the present time, the slope of the shape
parameter for middle age has been saturated in recent decades and that the
rectangularity above characteristic life has been suppressed, suggesting there are
ultimate limits to human longevity. The new model and subsequent findings will
contribute greatly to the interpretation and comprehension of our knowledge on the
human ageing processes.
