A lucky combination of all three is what makes some people live longer than others.

Yep, I also reckon you shouldn´t leave out the mind from all of this. It´s been mentioned hundreds of years ago: ‘Mens agitat molem!’ (the spirit moves matter)

You beyond doubt place really excellent thoughts into this. I´d like to add this: Back when Reagan was president his surgeon general was C. Everett Koop, Dr. Koop used to travel the country demonizing smoking and to a lesser extent drinking, one day he was on Letterman’s show and was taking questions from the audience a person questioned the doctor to clarify why nearly everybody has a tale about an ancient family member that lived a very long life and was never seen without a drink in one hand and a smoke in the other the doctor quickly answered “excellent genes” so I’ll go with the doc. and say genetics.

Thanks for that excellent post! I reckon it´s genetics, but mostly how you live your life.
