The fountain of youth exists—but it’s not what you think.
What if we’ve been programmed to accept a shorter life expectancy? What if aging doesn’t have to mean declining vision, hair loss, or cognitive decline?
In the U.S., we’re told the average lifespan is 75-80 years. But what if that’s far below our true potential? Research suggests that how we live—not just our genetics—determines not only how long we stay here but how well we thrive.
The surprising truth? Some humans live past 150, and they’re not avoiding every indulgence. Not all elders lose their hair, their eyesight, or their sharp minds. Yet, in the U.S., we’ve been conditioned to believe that decline is inevitable.
