Have scientists stumbled onto a town that holds the secret to the Fountain of Youth?

The residents of the small Italian village of Acciaroli are fat, tan, and many of them smoke. They don’t exercise much. They don’t watch their diets. But somehow they live incredibly long lives.

With a population of 2,000, the town boasts 300 people over 100 years of age. That means 15% of the population is over 100. That’s an astonishing number.

What’s the percentage in the U.S.? It’s 0.0173%.
