Looking back to history, we will find surprising facts. Until the 19th century was the average life expectancy just 30 years, but during the 19th century it has increased to 50 years. This had been caused mainly by the progress in medicine and improvement of hygiene conditions. Nowadays the life expectancy significantly varies with the quality of life. The lowest life expectancy is in Africa, where the average age is just 51 years. On the contrary, the highest average age of almost 84 years is in the little state Andorra.

There are many theories about ageing. Calendar age is different from biological age. We know young oldmen and old youngsters. Ageing is not an illness, it starts to be present in the period of maturity which is sometime after the 60th year of life. Changes associated with ageing do not have to occur to everyone in the same way nor in the same time. As every one of us is specific, has different abilities and capabilities, even in the process of ageing there are huge differences between individuals. And, of course, it considerably affects their abilities to live an active and contented life.
