Thomas Parr Oldest Man To Live Past 150

I am writing a second article about Thomas Parr because there is exceptional interest about him on the internet. For my own search results, Thomas Parr is number one for this blogspot. It goes to show people are interested in his life and in the possibility of living to 150 years of age.
Thomas Parr, otherwise known as "Old Parr" in England, is buried in Westminster Abbey and his tombstone claims he lived to 152 years old. Born the son of a farmer in Winnington, Shropshire, England, Thomas Parr lived a quiet life that allegedly began in 1483. He died in 1635 and was given the honorable place of burial in Westminster Abbey Church by King Charles the First. Back then, people were actually buried inside the churches to guarantee their ascension to heaven and eliminate the possibility of their being sent to hell. He was said to have married late in life and even had children after he was one hundred years old. Controversy surrounds The Thomas Parr 152 year life span, but he was interred by the King of England, and even back then, they had reliable records.
Modern science confirms we are built to live 150 years. The only known and proven method for getting there is by Caloric Restriction with Optimal Nutrition. It was said that Thomas Parr was a vegetarian and lived a simple farming life until he moved to the city late in life and was debilitated by the "change of air" that the city life brought him. The next oldest person is Jeanne Calment of France who, with accurate records, lived to 122. She loved red wine, chocolates, and bicycling. She was also independently wealthy after the passing of her rich husband.
Old Parr's autopsy focused heavily on his genitals with remarks that they appeared to be in good working condition and showed no signs of deterioration due to his advanced age. Whether or not Thomas Parr actually lived 152 years will never be proven or dis-proven. We can only acknowledge that he is recorded to have lived that long in one of England's most prestigious burial places. Autopsy results were of a cursory nature in the sixteen hundreds too, as medical science was still doing more harm than good. It wasn't until 1920 that the AMA, The American Medical Association, itself stated that it felt medical doctors had reached a point in there practice of medicine where they were as a whole doing more good than harm.
We have had less than a century to use this medical knowledge to improve our lives. But improve them we can, and we can go on to break Thomas Parr's record of longevity. There are people alive today, born in the twentieth century who will live well into the twenty second century. Learn more about this technology and technique in my book on Life Extension at
