In recent studies, Israeli scientists were able to enhance the life expectancy of mice by 23%. They're aiming to reproduce similar effects in people, allowing them to reach the age of 120 with ease. This was accomplished by increasing the activity of a protein known as SIRT6, according to research published in the journal Nature Communications. The mice were also less likely to develop cancer as a result of the increased activity.
