Researchers from Singapore and the USA conducted a new study in which they identified the key factors that affect a person’s maximum lifespan. They found that the speed at which the body recovers from stress and its overall physiological resilience are important indicators of the aging process.

According to a study published in the journal Nature CommunicationAging is a multistage process that leads to a gradual decline in organ and system functions, as well as the development of chronic diseases. The authors of the study used data from the British Biobank and created a model that allows assessing the body’s physiological resilience and recovery rate.

The results showed that the healing ability decreases with age and the body’s physiological resistance disappears. This leads to an increased risk of death from chronic diseases and a decrease in the maximum possible life expectancy. According to researchers, the organism’s loss of resistance can occur within a period of 120 to 150 years.

This research highlights the importance of physiological endurance as an important factor in determining maximum human lifespan. It also shows that to extend life, it is necessary not only to prevent and treat diseases, but also to slow down the aging process. Source
