New study reveals why some ancient people lived to 100 years or more

New study reveals why some ancient people lived to 100 years or more?

Researchers analyzed 333 Italian centenarians and compared their genetic composition to 103 ancient genomes to investigate human longevity.

These ancient groups had to evolve because they faced adversity. The human body had to strengthen its defense mechanisms and energy output, as per Archaeology Mag. And, as a result, they passed down these more robust genes to the future generations, perhaps inspiring, in considering that the toughest times that we might face could pass down a positive, rather than the trauma of the negative.”
