No one dies from "old age"; all deaths result from specific diseases, mainly cardiovascular, according to a study of 2,410 autopsies.
A study of 2,410 autopsies finds no one dies from "old age" but from specific diseases, primarily cardiovascular issues.
Heart attacks caused 39% of deaths, cardiopulmonary failure 38%, and strokes 17.9%.
Among those over 85 dying unexpectedly, 77% had cardiovascular causes.
Even healthy centenarians died from identifiable conditions: 68% from heart issues, 25% from respiratory failure.
The research, published in Genomic Psychiatry, suggests anti-aging interventions like rapamycin and fasting likely delay specific diseases rather than slow aging itself.
Different species die from distinct causes—mice from cancer, fruit flies from intestinal failure—indicating aging is a risk factor, not a direct cause of death.
