Humans have not yet reached the maximum age that should have been enjoyed

The record of the longest living person was established 21 years ago by a French grandmother named Jeanne Calment, who died at the age of 122. Even since then, no one has ever broken this record but people still ask suffering how old people can live.

Italian researchers have studied longevity and finally, they argue that human beings are still unable to achieve the maximum life expectancy that we should have. Why so?

In the study, scientists created a database of 3836 elderly people in Italy aged 105 and older, followed from 2009 to 2015. They then analyzed the death rates of these people. Often, the death rate of humans begins to increase when newborns, gradually decrease when they grow up in the early years and then increase again when they reach the age of 30, finally reaching the highest level at the age of 70, 80. Through the survey, the death rate of Italian elderly in the study stopped increasing from this age.

People who live over a hundred years still have a much higher death rate than a person in their 90s.

According to Kenneth W. Wachter, who led the study: 'The graph shows the mortality rates of these elderly people, although they do not appear to increase, but are actually going down over time. The mortality rates of these people still increase but are stretched back to the time when reaching the extremely high age, ' demonstrating that we still cannot reach the maximum age .

In fact, this study is in stark contrast to a previous study that claimed that human life expectancy was only highest at 115 years of age. Researchers then deduced that mortality could be sustained for a number of reasons, such as those who are weakly communicative only tend to die early, and the stronger ones remain. living; or very older people will be able to work at a slower cellular level, so it will be easier to heal the lesions.

However, if research has just been published, it does not mean that everyone can live longer than Jeanne Calment. People who live over the age of 100 still have a much higher death rate than a person in their 90s. At the same time, the faster life records are broken, the more 'the following' will be more difficult to reach. break that record more.
