In Cuba, the number of long-livers is growing: at the moment there are about 1400 people in the country who have overcome the 100-year-old line.

These data were obtained during a study conducted in the country during the year.

According to official figures, Cuba has 1,448 people who have reached or overcame the 100-year life line, said Eusebio Selman, chairman of the Medical Association of the Caribbean.

Most of the club of long-livers in Cuba are women. And the most centennial is in the central province of Villa Clara.

According to the comments of specialists, the majority of old-timers in Cuba early started working life and continued it to old age. They used medicines for their ailments, moved a lot and maintained strong family relationships.

According to demographic studies, the average life expectancy in Cuba is 78 years. Local authorities consider this to be one of the achievements of the revolution, after which the medical care of the population has significantly improved.

At the same time, earlier researchers from Britain came to the conclusion that the existing theory of rejuvenation is wrong, and the aging processes are irreversible. Thus, they confirmed that a healthy lifestyle and regular physical activity are the main ways of prolonging life.
