Scientific American article: How Old Can Humans Get?

Quote from the article:  "research into hunter-gatherer populations suggests that individuals who escaped disease and violent deaths could live to about their seventh or eighth decade. This means our typical human life span may be static: around 70 years, with an extra decade or so for advanced medical care and cautious behavior."

 

Psalms 90: 10 said the same thing millennia ago.

 

Another quote:  "João Pedro de Magalhães, a professor of molecular biogerontology at the Institute of Inflammation and Ageing at the University of Birmingham in England, thinks humans could live for 1,000 years. He has scrutinized the genomes of very long-lived animals such as the bowhead whale (which can reach 200 years) and the naked mole rat. His surprising conclusion: if we eliminated aging at the cellular level, humans could live for a millennium—and potentially as long as 20,000 years."

 

Only 20,000 years.  They aren't even close.

If we eliminated aging at the cellular level, humans could live for a millennium—and potentially as long as 20,000 years, says João Pedro de Magalhães, a professor of molecular biogerontology at the Institute of Inflammation and Ageing at the University of Birmingham in England. By examining the genomes of many animals, Magalhães concludes that aging is genetically programmed–a “software” not a “hardware” problem. 

How it might work: Scientists could hypothetically reprogram our cells by tweaking genes that are central to aging. For example, bowhead whales, elephants, rats and many other animals, all have genes that help elongate life by suppressing cancer, or improving DNA repair; perhaps we could use this knowledge to tweak our own aging coding. This would require technology not currently available. 

 

What the experts say: “

If we could redesign our biology to eliminate cancer and evade the detrimental actions of our genetic software program, the health benefits would be mind-boggling,” says Magalhães.

Jehovah can do all of this and better... and He will.

Only 20,000? Nah, 20.000 isn't even enough to find a wife, this is too low
