Key Longevity Factors

Our algorithm uses 12 validated predictors from studies like Framingham, UK Biobank, and Blue Zones:

  • Genetics: 20–30% of lifespan (parental age at death)
  • Lifestyle: 70–80% modifiable (diet, exercise, smoking)
  • Socioeconomic: Education ↑ 7 years, income ↑ 5 years
  • Biometrics: BMI 22–25 optimal, BP <120/80

Blue Zones Secrets

People in Okinawa, Sardinia, and Loma Linda live to 100+:

  • Plant-based diet (95% calories)
  • Natural movement (gardening, walking)
  • Purpose in life ("ikigai")
  • Strong social ties
  • Moderate alcohol (wine with meals)

Impact of Habits

  • Smoking: -10 to 15 years
  • Obesity (BMI>30): -8 to 10 years
  • Exercise (150 min/week): +3 to 7 years
  • 7–8 hrs sleep: +5 years vs <6 hrs
  • Mediterranean diet: +8 to 10 years
  • Chronic stress: -2 to 5 years

Healthspan vs Lifespan

Lifespan = total years. Healthspan = years in good health.
Goal: Extend healthspan to match lifespan. Our tool predicts both.

Genetic vs Lifestyle

Even with "bad" genes, lifestyle can add 14 years (NEJM 2023 study).

How to Add Years

  1. Quit smoking: +10 years if before 40
  2. Exercise 30 min/day: +3.4 years
  3. Healthy BMI: +4 years
  4. Social connections: +50% lower mortality
  5. Learn continuously: +2.5 years per education level

Emerging Longevity Science

  • Senescent cell clearance: +20% in mice
  • NAD+ boosters (NMN): Human trials 2025
  • Epigenetic clocks: Measure biological age
  • AI predicts death within 5 years (90% accuracy)

Regional Disparities

US: 20-year gap between richest and poorest counties.
Education: College grads live 7 years longer than high school dropouts.

Science Facts

  • Telomere length: +1 year per 1000 base pairs
  • VO2 max: Top 25% live 5 years longer
  • Optimism: +15% longevity
  • Marriage: +3–5 years (men), +1–2 (women)
