Should we take life advice from centenarians?
Manage episode 436665916 series 90417
Less than two weeks ago, the world’s oldest person died. The Spanish woman Maria Branyas Morera lived until the extraordinary age of 117. She put her longevity down to “order, tranquillity, good connection with family and friends”, among other things. But, some scientists argue that taking longevity advice from centenarians is actually a fool’s errand.
Joining Seán to discuss this is Richard Faragher, Professor of Biogerontology at the University of Brighton.
