Scientists from Tilburg University and Erasmus University Rotterdam have determined the maximum age a human can reach with a healthy lifestyle. After analyzing data on more than 75,000 people who died in the 30 years up to 2017, they concluded that the limit is about 115 years: 115.7 for women and 114.1 for men. The study emphasizes that many reach 90, but under the most favorable conditions, the limit is constrained. As an exception, the Frenchwoman Jeanne Louise Calment, who lived 122 years and 164 days, is mentioned; her longevity is attributed to a lifestyle that did not involve heavy labor. The article also notes that Calment smoked until age 115 and allowed herself a glass of wine. The material is popular science in nature and does not include comments from independent experts.
