One secret to human longevity is the regular intake of herbal supplements. Find out which herbal supplements impact longevity with expert tips from a science and health researcher in this free video about improving human longevity.

We're going to talk about living a long, healthy life, and whether or not herbal supplements can contribute to our health. And herbs are something that's kind of a hotly debated topic, because they're not formally regulated, and yet herbs can be very potent. They can be as potent, even more potent than conventional medicinal drugs that you would get prescribed from your doctor. So, some people are very cautious about recommending herbs, just because of the fact that they're not regulated and some people might not follow the directions, and overdose, what not. But I do think it's important to recognize that scientific studies have shown that many different herbs do have very helpful benefits, and that if you use them correctly and in moderation, then they can definitely be a part of a healthy lifestyle. A couple that have--that some good studies have been done on that I personally really like is andrographis. It's sold under different names, and I'm not promoting any particular brand. The main thing is just do your research, make sure you're buying it from a reputable company that you know has high standards, because there are people who sell substandard products, unfortunately, so you want to be careful. Andrographis has been shown in double blind studies to be very effective at treating symptoms related to cold and upper respiratory infections, flu-like illnesses. So, you know, that's great. In fact, a natural substance that has been proven to have very few side effects, and it can make a big difference. So, definitely--rhodiola is another herb that I really like. Recent--there's been several recent studies that show that that can help with stress resistance. It can make you more resistant to stress, also to illness. It can boost your immune system. Different studies from around the world show that it can also actually improve your concentration. So, a lot of these herbs, one thing that's nice about them is that they have kind of a systemic effect in that they can actually help you with several different objective at the same time. Rhodiloa for example is good for your immune system, and it's also--studies have shown that it also may be good for clarity. So, that's something to consider. There are good herbs out there. You'll want to do your research and make sure that science backs up that it is a good product before you waste your money.

From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science

Human longevity is the length of a person's life span. The Creationist reflections on this topic typically focus on the effects of the flood on the human lifespan, and the cause of human mortality. Ancient historical documents, including the Biblical book of Genesis, record lifespans approximately 10 times above what they are currently. However, immediately after the flood, human longevity shows a rapid decline.

According to the Bible's book of Genesis, God restricted the human lifespan to 120 years during the time of the Flood:

According to the book of Psalms, the average human lifespan (which at the time of the writing would have been 3,000 years ago, and we know must have been at least 2,500 years ago given the Dead Sea Scrolls) was 70 years:

Prior to the flood, Genesis 5 records that people lived extraordinarily long lives: routinely over 900 years. Methuselah is known for living longer than any other human in history, dying at the age of 969.

This longevity is believed to be so extraordinarily long in part because environmental conditions were optimal before the Earth was destroyed during the global flood. This perhaps maintained by a stronger magnetic field or dense atmosphere which collapsed during the flood.

It should be noted that there is nothing known about the human body which would fundamentally prevent humans from having lived that long in the past, or to one day live that long again.[1] Scientists do not know why humans age and ultimately die, although some have speculated[Reference needed] that it might be due to the shortening of telomeres, which could theoretically have been much longer prior to the flood.

Josephus, a first century Jewish historian, wrote:

After the great flood, human lifespans declined quickly and precipitously as seen in the chart at right.

There are several possible factors for consideration:
