Scientists believe humans have hard limits for age
A new study has been published which shows that humans have a difficult limit to life, and so the limit is achieved, the body can no longer improve itself. While scientists believe humans can live between 120 and 150 years, we will not be able to live beyond certain “absolute” limits. This study shows that after 120 to 150 years, the body will fully lose its ability to recover from pressure.
Pressure includes things like diseases and injuries. However, if therapy can be developed to extend the body’s resilience, researchers believe humans can live longer and healthier. Professor Judith Campisi said that such research depends on historic data and presents from the population of people. He said, “Guess, but based on a good number.” Campisi is not part of this study.
The researchers analyzed large data sets from the US, Britain and Russia which included anonymous medical data for more than 500,000 people during the study. Data is utilized from a simple blood test available for almost everyone in a data set. Individuals take blood tests several times for several months.
The researchers were looking for two points in the results of blood tests for three different age groups. Data includes a ratio of two types of white blood cells that combat disease, and the size of variability in the size of red blood cells. These numbers increase as a person’s age, which is something called scientists as aging biomarkers.
Scientists use a computer model to determine something known as the dynamic organism status indicator for each person, which is basically a measurement of biological age. That number is used to measure how a person will recover from stress such as injury or pain. Data shows that around 120 and 150 years, this resistance will fully disappear, leaving that person cannot survive.
