Research shows that old age is not the cause of death

Recent research by American scientists points out that old age is not a direct cause of human death.

From a medical perspective, aging is not a direct cause of death. So when you hear a message about a person who died of age, what really happened to him is a disease like pneumonia, heart attack or cancer. This will not happen to people who are in good health despite their advanced age.

The life of an elderly person is really a collection of many health problems. Amy Ehrlich - clinical professor of medicine at Albert Einstein Medical University, a geriatric doctor at Montefiore Medical Center said that the older a person is, the more likely it is that he will have severe and hard-to-treat diseases. bigger, especially heart disease or cancer.

In addition, osteoarthritis diseases also greatly affect the lives of the elderly.

There is a statistic showing that the average life expectancy of people is gradually increasing over time. Today we have a life nearly twice as long as our father's.

It is understandable because in the age of scientific and medical development is very strong today, the most feared diseases in the past such as tuberculosis, smallpox, plague and gastrointestinal infection no longer exist. is a frightening threat.

Age does not directly affect human life. If we have a healthy life right from a young age, there will not be too much health concerns when we get old. That's why there are many people in the world today who can live to be over 100 years old but still very healthy.
