The US subscription television channel National Geographic plans to use interviews with scientists and experts to showcase advances that aim to reduce disease and extend human lifespan.

To achieve this, National Geographic will soon premiere a television programme entitled: "Science of Life: Longevity", with which they agreed to visit the longest-living communities in Spain and Japan in search of their secrets, in order to see how science can overcome diseases that recently limited the lives of those who suffered from them.

The programme seeks to relate how life expectancy has been rising in recent decades. To do this they will attempt to show that this increase in longevity has profound implications for healthy ageing.

It is worth noting that the Nordic countries have the highest life expectancy over the age of 65, coinciding with the fact that they are the most socially advanced, and that the Nordic countries are also the ones with the highest rates of active ageing.

According to the group of experts who will participate in this innovative programme, they have inferred that we are on the verge of a new longevity, of being able to live beyond 120 years, prolonging our healthy years of life will modify the most essential pillars of human beings, love, family, work, so that nothing will ever be the same again.

The programme "Life Science: Longevity" will premiere on 4 October and will be available on demand after its linear premiere. In each filming, scientists will try to prove that we can generate new neurons up to the age of 90.

Greetings @lupafilotaxia, excellent initiative that National Geography perform, because it is a real challenge to see how people have been able to survive so many diseases and continue with their lives, for example as there are still survivors who overcame the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.

Hi @carlir

That's right, the interesting thing about the programme is to be able to know the data that scientists will be sharing in order to unveil the keys to longevity.

Best regards, be well.

Greetings my friend. An interesting program that brings us National Geography, I love your documentaries, and surely I will not miss this one. I think we are all interested in increasing our lifespan in a healthy way, and it certainly seems that there are communities that have achieved it, I hope we can discover the secret.

Hello @emiliomoron

It certainly looks like an interesting programme, as you will be able to know the data that scientists will be socialising in order to unveil the keys to longevity.

Best regards, be well.

Really.. I think i seized out new ideas from your publications. As u have said " It is worth noting that the Nordic countries have the highest life expectancy over the age of 65"... Thanks for sharing Friend @ lupafilotaxia

Hi @benie111

Yes, the TV programme will need to unveil what happens in the Nordic countries, so that people achieve greater longevity.

Best regards, be well.
