How do you become a supercentenarian?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lots of good luck: To be clear, it's already quite an achievement to make it to 100yo, much less 110+yo. Yes, eating right, exercising regularly & getting enough (quality) sleep might improve odds. Certainly choosing long-lived parents & grandparents helps. But there's no proven way to guarantee that one will become a supercentenarian.
