Longevity and senior adult

Abstract

Population aging is the product of human aging and therefore of society, this increase in the productive age or not, unsettlingly marks the public and private systems; For this reason, the purpose of this article is to expose the issue of longevity in a theoretical and experiential way, assuming the documentary review as a method in this type of exhibition, trying to make reflections on the controversial gene of longevity that has permeated the last decades the language of many health professionals and related. The idea is not to assume what is described here as a panacea, but rather, to promote reflexivity and a critical stance towards what is described.
