Elysium Health presents its August longevity science roundup, discussing topics such as human lifespan limits and the effects of collagen supplements on aging. The newsletter explores a new mathematical model that suggests humans could live up to 190 years if all age-related diseases are eliminated. It also delves into the role of somatic mutations in limiting human lifespan.

Could humans live to 190? A new mathematical model explores the outer limits of human lifespan—even if every other known driver of aging could be eliminated. Also in the August edition of The Abstract: what the clinical evidence says about collagen supplements, whether eating less protein could support longevity, the growing effort to regenerate the aging thymus, and why vitamin B12 deficiency can sometimes look like aging.

Could humans live to 190—but not forever?
