Is it true that contained by in the order of 20 years human lifespan can be extended another 50 years?
famouse Doctor Mercola said that with some radical advances contained by technologies there is no doubt surrounded by 20 years or sooner we'll be able to add another 50 years to our lifespan.
Could this be fiction or science?
Answers:
Total fiction. But, fantasies are fun.
I suspect that the human population as a unharmed will be lucky to maintain our current average (or median) lifespans fifty years from now. While it is true the some people will hold increased lifespans, it is not clear to me that this will be true for the human population as a whole. The problem is that we have an ever growing population that is becoming ever harder to sustain. Source(s): I am a biologist.
Cambridge University geneticist Aubrey de Grey stated that “The first person to live to be 1000 years ripened is certainly alive today …whether they realize it or not, barring accidents and suicide, most people in a minute 40 years or younger can expect to live for centuries.”
Perhaps a bit optimistic, but advances in nano-medicine, organ regeration and cellular inheritance certainly make it likely that by 2050 or so the average lifespan will capably exceed 100, maybe 200.
On the other hand, is simply living longer, without address the quality of life, all that desirablele?
And the population of the planet will briskly reach 15 - 20 billion.
Doesn't necessarily sound like a world I want to inhabit forever. Source(s): http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2009/03/can-humans-live.html

I definitely wouldn't be surprised. You can't definitively state what the future will bring, but it's not far-fetched.
Yikes, that will set most modern economy on their ear. You are talking about retirement lasting three or four times longer than working enthusiasm. Better start saving.
I doubt that will happen, would require everyone to participate, and at the rate we are going, not a soul gets very good continuity of vigour care, and people are reluctant to do what is recommended any way.
It would require totalitarian type political affairs, enforcing everything that would be possible to do that. Do you really think people are feeling like to give up that much of their individual rights?
