Who doesn't want to live a healthy and long life? But there are many obstacles on the road to wellness that could cut short life's journey. Maria Branyas Morera, US-born supercentenarian passed away in Spain last August. She was officially the world's oldest-living person at 117 years and 168 days at the time of her death.
Her long and healthy life was studied by a team of researchers from the Josep Carreras Leukemia Research Institute in Spain that conducted an analysis on what worked for her from her genes, microbiome to metabolism and discovered some interesting findings. The report which is yet to be peer-reviewed gives a peek into the cellular machinery of the supercentenarian and some of the findings may also help one in living a long life, especially beyond 100.
