3
Sadly, most of them can't be cured today, but let's assume for a minute that they could be in the near future.
4
As soon as an organ fails, we could replace it and live on for as long as we want it, right?
5
Here's the bad news.
6
There's a passionate scientific debate around whether or not there's a limit to the human lifespan.
7
Scientists currently place this limit around 120 years and think it's linked to human biochemistry.

When we age, the DNA in our cells loses its ability to multiply, which limits the amount of damage our bodies can repair.

So, what's the good news?
10
Science has made huge progress in aging research and found many promising tools that might slow, stop or reverse aging.

And, without aging, death might be postponed much longer, pushing our limit to 200 years without any trouble.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
