How long will you live? While you can't predict the future, Dr. Thomas Perls, a Harvard researcher has come up with a quiz he says can give you a pretty good idea.
The Living to 100 Life Expectancy Calculator© was designed to translate
what we have learned from studies of centenarians and other longevity
research into a practical and empowering tool for individuals to estimate
their longevity potential.
The average person is born with a set of genes that would allow them to live
to 85 years of age and maybe longer. People who take appropriate
preventive steps may add as many as 10 quality years to that. People who
fail to heed the messages of preventive medicine may subtract substantial
years from their lives.
To use the calculator, answer all of the
questions. Most of the centenarian subjects in
our Harvard Medical School-based New
England Centenarian Study would score very
high on this test.
