Usually our life span is around 80-90 but is there a way to increase the chances of being alive to celebrate your 100th birthday?? It would be cool to live 100 years or more.
In my mother's side: My great-great grandmother lived till 102+ years old, my great grandmother passed away just 3 days ago and today was going to be her 101st birthday and then comes my grandmother who is only 72 at this moment, mother and I.
From my father's side: His father lived till his 80's, his paternal grandfather died somewhere in his late 80's and his grandfather's father was in his 90's. However, he has certain members that didn't make it that long such as his mother who was only in her late 70's, his older sister died at that age too but his maternal grandmother was in her 90's when she died.
Now I'm wondering if I'll make till 100+ years old? That would be great. Right now I'm 26 years old (will be turning 27 on April) and sometimes I'm told I can easily passed out for a 20-22 year-old. I guess this favors my life span, hopefully.
I've never scrubbed a bathroom either nor did heavy household chores. I don't use detergent too much and as a result my hands aren't one bit wrinkled.
Or is there a chance I can still inherit my father's genes and not make it to that age?
