Every
decade, the number of centenarians doubles in the United
States. At the turn of the century, we have about 80,000 American's
over the age of 100. Most are healthier than people a generation
younger. It is estimated that we will have close to a million
centenarians in our country by the middle of the 21st century.
We feel that it is important to honor these citizens and to share
some
of their stories here on the Live Younger website.
If you are age 100 or older, or know a friend or relative that
is, you
can register in our online directory.
We will place the centenarian's first name and last initial along
with
their secret to longevity on the site.
