Don't Take Health Advice from Centenarians

A biogerontology professor warns that the health and lifestyle choices of the world's oldest people may not guarantee longevity for others.

Many experts believe that luck or good genetics are the main reasons for living a long life. However, they agree that people who want to live longer should not follow the health advice of centenarians.

This is because many centenarians have lived long despite unhealthy habits like smoking and drinking alcohol. These habits are generally not good for your health.

The professor also says that a positive mental attitude may not be the cause of longevity. It could be the other way around: people who are healthy may have a positive attitude.

In conclusion, while centenarians may have interesting stories to share, their lifestyle choices may not be the best way to live a long and healthy life.
