New England Centenarian Study
Centenarians handle stress better (resilient). If gave birth > 40 yrs old = 4 x chance of living to
100 Few are obese. Men are especially lean.Smoking history rare.Most have at least one old 1st degree relative.
Many children of centenarians (age 65 - 82) follow parents’ footsteps - low rates heart disease, diabetes and mortality.
1 in 3 = no changes in their thinking abilities.
