Is the life expectancy of human beings reaching the limit?

A recent study by French scientists has looked at many aspects of humanity including: height, longevity and physicality. Quite surprised when the results were found, they reached the limit.

According to Independent, the team from France collected and synthesized all trends of human development during the past 120 years, in order to find the physical limits, height and life expectancy of people.

While advances in human nutrition, medicine and science are progressing, some of our properties have not increased, even on the decline.

The research team said that modern society has brought people to the limit and we are now the first generation aware of this. Instead of improving the character, what we see now is the shift in the proportion of the population that increasingly reaches the limit.

According to the study, the environment plays an important role in achieving the above limits. Even environmental factors such as climate change can negatively affect the limit.

Professor Jean-François Toussaint of the research team said that the current decline of human capacity is a sign of the impact of environmental change, such as climate change to the limit of human.

"It will be one of the greatest challenges of this century when the pressure from human activities is the cause of negative impact on our health and the environment," Toussaint said. ".

Human height has decreased in the last decade in some African countries. This suggests that many social populations have ceased to be sufficient sources of nutrition for children and maintain health for young residents.

The research team asserted that the current focus of politicians and policy makers should be focused on ensuring that more and more people can achieve the upper limit instead of seeking to push the limit. higher up.

According to Professor Toussaint, the early grasp of human limits will play an important role for countries. Because, we will easily plan human development goals at the highest level. However, with the current environmental pollution and climate change momentum, raising the limits of people will certainly consume a lot of energy and resources.

The study was published in Frontiers in Physiology magazine recently.
