Why do some people live to be 110 years old?

Recently a study in Frontiers in Genetics found that gene variants are a major cause for some people "to live a hundred years of age" to avoid aging or to inhibit disease development for many years.

Being long and healthy without using drugs or any help is always the desire of mankind. This is the reason why researchers are very interested today.

American anti-aging experts say there is only one supercentenarians - people who live longer than 110 years of age over 5 million people in developed countries. And the evidence of the role of genetic genes in life expectancy is increasingly detected.

They conducted research to analyze the genome of a grandfather and a grandmother - they were all over 114 years old. The results show that they are still at risk of contracting all kinds of diseases like others, but they are able to fight diseases and recover faster.

Dr. Thomas Perls of Boston Medical University said: "He has 37 mutations related to colon cancer. Previously, he had colon cancer but had surgery to cure the disease. When she had many genetic variants related to some aging diseases, she had heart failure and cognitive impairment but was mild at 108 years old.

Perls said that the difference between older people and older people is that older people have genetic variants that help them avoid aging signs , including heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's or inhibiting disease development. for several years.
