The secret of longevity of the oldest elderly woman in the world

Antisa Khvichava, a woman living in the village of Sachino (Russia) is considered the oldest person in the world when she died at the age of 132.

Although the Khvichava's personal papers had a record of birth on July 8, 1880, many people still expressed skepticism, judging it to be inaccurate. However, the scientific community believes in this number and believes that no one can know for sure the maximum life span that humans are capable of achieving.

According to Gerontology Research Group's Geriatric Research Research Group, in 1798, the longest-lived person died at age 103. In 1997, a French woman named Jeanne Calment broke that record and enjoyed a life of 122 years old. .

At this point, the question that many people care about is why do they achieve such a desirable age?

Last year, in a study of people aged 95 and older, experts at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine at Yeshiva University in New York (USA) found many bad health habits like smoking, drinking, Poor diet, not popular exercise in the general population and the elderly group is no exception. This means that the factor determining their lifespan is the gene trait.

However, saying this does not mean that people do not need to make a healthy lifestyle when fate is arranged based on genetic factors. The difference in life expectancy between Kvichava and others is explained by the fact that he always refuses unhealthy habits.

For those who are not fortunate to have a genetic advantage, to overcome the threshold of 100 (according to the 2010 Census, there are 53,364 centenarians in the US), followers of Seventh-day Adventists strictly follow the moderation living advice. In addition, research by Dr. Gary Fraser and colleagues at Loma Linda Medical University has also found a link between the unusually long life of Seventh-day Adventists with exercise, vegetarianism, Abstain from smoking and regularly use nuts.

Currently, the title of the oldest survivor recognized by the Guinness World Records Organization is belonging to Besse Cooper (116), born on August 26, 1896 and living in Georgia (USA).
