World’s Oldest Woman Passes Away at Age 122

Family Reveals Secrets to Longevity of 122-Year-Old

The world’s oldest living person, Jeanne Calment of France, passed away in 1997 at the age of 122. Since then, no individual has been officially verified to have surpassed her age. However, reports occasionally emerge of individuals claiming to have lived beyond this age, though such claims often lack sufficient documentation for verification.

In a recent case, a woman purported to be 122 years old has died, with her family attributing her longevity to a combination of factors, including a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and maintaining strong social connections. While these elements are commonly associated with longer lifespans, it’s important to note that individual longevity can be influenced by a variety of genetic and environmental factors.

It’s also worth mentioning that the validation of extreme age claims requires thorough documentation, including birth records and other official documents, which are often unavailable or incomplete, especially in cases from earlier centuries or less developed regions.
