What is the longest a person could theoretically live to reach.?

Question

How long could a human live before the cells and organs and other body parts just give out.

I dont want any answer that speak of how long the oldest person lived and so and so.

What is the longest a human could live period. 120, 150, 200 + years; I want scientific answers only.

Dont not quote anything from the bible.

Answer 1

around 100 years

Answer 2

the longest living person was abraham who live to be 340 years old. It's true cuz its in the bible.

Answer 3

A human right now could potentially live to about 130 , we likely will succumb to another condition about 50 years before that though.

The chance of contracting many of these conditions is greatly increased with age , if we can limit the decay associated with that then chances of contracting these conditions is also limited .

The brain dies at around 140-50 years though organs can live longer. The cells also die.

Answer 4

i think it's something like 250 years.. before DNA degrades to a point where the cells can't replicate...  theyr end caps are destroyed by free radicals (oxygen compound) and they lose the ability to replicate..

i think.. it wasa  while ago i heard this so ideas may have changed

im assuming you mean without disease, and perfect medicine, and such? like how long is the maximum lenght independant of medicine/science?

not how long do people live nowadays....?

Answer 5

Cell breakdown is a natural process.  The life span of a human is obviously shorter than say a turtle.  The longest a human can expect to live is 100 years.

Answer 6

your brain can live up to 150 years.  other organs may live longer but with out your brain you will die.  brain tissue doesn't heal like muscles and other organs that's why people suffer Alzheimer's in their old age because their brain tissue wears down and doesn't heal.
