Russians could live to 120 with prevention and healthy habits, expert claims

Petr Glybochko, rector of Sechenov University, has suggested that Russians could live to 120 with proper prevention and healthy habits. He argues that individuals must take charge of their own health, with medicine playing a supportive role. Glybochko believes the push for longer lifespans should begin between the ages of 30 and 50. Regular health checkups and a balanced lifestyle are key to this effort.

He points to metabolic screening as a major advancement in healthcare. This technology allows early detection of chronic diseases and genetic predispositions. According to him, Russia is fostering a new culture of healthy aging, supported by cutting-edge medical innovations. The focus on prevention and early intervention aims to extend life expectancy significantly. Glybochko’s vision combines personal responsibility with medical progress to achieve this goal.
