ABrian Johnson, an American tech entrepreneur, has already made headlines for spending billions on experiments to reduce his age. Like Brian Johnson, all humans want to slow down, hold back, and stave off death. Although the age cannot be stopped, the figures of the United Nations health department also show that people are living longer. If it was estimated that a person born in 1960 could live up to 52 years, today the life expectancy of man has increased to 72 years. This increase is due to leaps and bounds in the health sector. However, one island in Japan has more 100-year-olds than any other region in the world. This island is known today as the ‘Land of the Immortals’.

Okinawa Island in Japan is known as the “Land of Immortals”. The island is located between Taiwan and the Japanese mainland. It is one of the five “blue zones” in the world.

According to the 2020 census, women in Okinawa live to an average of 87.44 years while men live to an average of 80.27 years.
