Living to 100 in consideration now be given a long life, but after a review, it may be the norm for babies born today.
The article in the medical journal The Lancet was published, shows that the present is based on the orbits is about half of all babies born in developed countries since 2000, can be expected that in the three characters live. The trends that live show in the article that many Western countries over the last 100 people, while living in the year 2007 half of all babies born in the United States is likely to 104 years.
"I guess that's good news for individuals and a challenge for companies," said Dr. Kaare Christensen, Epidemiologist Danish Research Center on Aging at the University of Southern Denmark, lead author of the Chambers.
"If this path continues, half of the babies 100, and I think it gives us a new perspective on how you live your life, plan, essentially," he said. "If you go into retirement if you are 60 or 65, it seems quite different, if that is your life expectancy at 75 or 80, when 100".
Christensen said that if progress in life expectancy in the first half of the 20th Century, reducing child mortality, increasing life expectancy is the same since then by the quality of life for seniors who have come to stay during the screening to take advantage.
"If we want a continuous increase in life expectancy, progress must occur at an advanced age," he said. "I have no problems in older people that they live too long."
Christensen said the aging population will probably also a population that more with a better quality of life, the people of that time now.
"The good news is that people will work well in general - it's more how they move their aging process," he said.
Some researchers have supported the hypothesis of the new report.
"Based on the best possible approximations, I believe they are right in assessing the scheduled time," said Dr. Stephen Helfand, a professor in the Department of Biology and Medicine at Brown University in an e-mail. "The evidence seems overwhelmingly in favor of their hypothesis.
At the same time, some wonder whether the full forecast - that it has the biggest babies born today is the last 100 - quite right.
"I think it's a very optimistic scenario, but it can be chronic health problems that might not allow us, the best scenario yet to follow," said Hector Gonzalez, Assistant Professor of Medicine and Public Health Wayne State University.
"There is no reason to believe that more than half the people today can live to 100," said Dr. Harrison Bloom, senior associate at the International Longevity Center in New York. "But this requires better nutrition, healthier, and the constant improvement of the environment. This is certainly the way of life means less obesity. Diabetes and obesity epidemic is now really. Many people die earlier than their projected service life would have been. "
