Starting with the world's longest lifespan record, let's uncover the three major physiological reasons for lifespan differences.
The oldest person currently officially recorded is a French woman named Jeanne Calment , who lived to the age of 122. According to data from January 4 , 2021 , the oldest person in the world at that time was a 118- year-old Japanese woman; the second oldest was a 116- year-old French woman; and the third oldest was a 116- year-old Brazilian woman. Looking at the list of the top fifty oldest people, all are women.
In the United States, the average life expectancy for men is about 76.1 years, while for women it is 81.1 years, with women generally living 7 to 8 years longer than men .

Three main reasons why women live longer
1. The protective effect of estrogen
Estrogen in a woman's body can stimulate the expression of antioxidant genes, which helps reduce free radical damage to DNA and mitochondria, thereby reducing the risk of cancer.
2. A stronger and more durable immune system
Women's immune systems age more slowly, their T cells and B cells maintain their function for longer, and they have more "killer T cells," making them more effective at fighting viruses and cancer cells. In contrast, men need to work harder to maintain a healthy immune system.
3. Lower oxidative stress
Women produce less oxidants in their bodies than men, especially hydrogen peroxide, which is only half the amount produced by men. Furthermore, women produce twice as much glutathione (a powerful antioxidant) as men, making them better able to combat cellular oxidation and aging.

Conclusion: Longevity begins with daily life.
Longevity is not just a result of genes, but also closely related to daily habits. A balanced diet, regular exercise, managing oxidative stress, and strengthening the immune system are all important keys to extending healthy lifespan. Both men and women can start laying the foundation for long-term health today.
