This longevity calculator can estimate the life expectancy based on your age and health profile
  1. 1
    To start, first, input the current age and select the biological gender, smoker or non-smoker, and the frequency of alcohol consumption. Regular drinking is defined as taking more than 2 drinks in a day for adult men and more than 1 drink for adult women.
  2. 2
    Select your exercise habit. Suppose you consistently spend 3 to 5 hours weekly on vigorous exercise, 5 to 10 hours on moderate exercise, or 4 to 7 hours on a combination of vigorous and moderate exercise. The study shows that these physical activities may reduce mortality and improve longevity. Besides, age doesn't affect the benefit of the exercise you choose.
  3. 3
    Input the blood pressure. Normal blood pressure is considered a healthy level if the "top number" (systolic) is lower than 120 mmHg and the "bottom number" (diastolic) is lower than 80 mmHg. If the systolic blood pressure is greater than 130 mmHg, or the criteria of Stage 1 hypertension or worse is met, the study shows an increased risk of all-cause mortality.
  4. 4
    Check the life expectancy and probability of living longer. The table of longevity estimates can produce the following outputs:
    1. Total life expectancy, namely the expected age at which a person may die.
    2. Additional life expectancy. This is the average remaining years of a person's life at a given age.
    3. Probability of living N more years. This can help answer the following questions: For example, if I am a 65-year-old retired man, should I prepare to keep financially strong for another 30 years, or is 20 years good enough? Is the probability of living that long high or not?
    4. Probability of reaching a certain age. For example, what is the likelihood of becoming a centenarian (age 100+)?
