There is no unambiguous definition of the average life expectancy. Conditionally it means the age to which approximately 80% of the country's population can potentially live. The psychological, medical, economic, environmental spheres have a great significance in determining the life expectancy of a person.

Scientists note three important causes leading to aging and death. The first - living organisms wear out and grow old, as wear and age grows all nature. The second - the organism loses the ability to self renewal and recovery.

The third - the inclusion of the body of such processes that contribute to its self-destruction, aging and death.

We can deal with damaging factors and stimulate the body to recover. This will allow us to win from 10-20 and, possibly, more years. Using special measures that slow down the metabolism in the body (diet, exercise, etc.), we can significantly stretch the life cycle, and thereby significantly delay the launch of those processes that lead to the cessation of renewal and suicide of cells.
