Studies Indicate That Individuals With This Blood Type Have a Higher Likelihood of Living to 100

“Living to 100 was once rare, but it’s becoming far more common. Still, centenarians aren’t the world’s fastest-growing age group. In a major Swedish study, researchers analyzed decades-old blood tests from tens of thousands of people to see whether simple lab markers—like glucose, cholesterol, and inflammation levels—could predict who might reach 100.

They compared individuals who became centenarians with those who didn’t, all tested at similar ages to avoid skewed results. Using national health registers, the team followed participants for up to 35 years, finding that certain routine biomarkers were linked to living past 90. The study’s strong design and long follow-up give weight to its conclusions.”
