Scientist warns against health advice from 100-year-olds

The lifestyle choices of centenarians do not necessarily guarantee longevity for others, a biogerontology professor has said

The health and lifestyle choices of the world’s oldest people should not be taken as a blueprint for longevity for others, Richard Faragher, a professor of biogerontology at the UK’s University of Brighton, has warned.

According to the scientist, the question of why some people live to 100 and some don’t is still debated.
