Age is just a number, and apparently, it’s getting bigger!

According to research from the United States, living up to 141 years old will be possible.

Dr. David McCarthy, an assistant professor at the University of Georgia, suggests that men could potentially live to 141 years old while women could live beyond 130.

Previously, scientists believed that the upper limit of human lifespan was just over 120 years old.

Life expectancy has drastically increased over the past century due to better healthcare and diets.

Recent American research suggests also that further advancements in medicine and nutrition could lead to even longer lifespans.
