One of the longest-lived race of people in the world are called the Hunza. These people, located in the northern Pakistan, are found in several high-altitude mountain valleys. Many Hunza claim to be 150 years old; many others are documented centenarians (over age one hundred). For many years, scientists have pondered the mystery of what makes them so healthy, for they rarely suffer the diseases the rest of us know so well. Some researchers are beginning to believe that the Hunza miracle derives from the water that they drink. The mountain water that flows into the Hunza villages comes from the surrounding glaciers. Structured hexagonally, this water is filled with mineral solutes, and it tests out as highly alkaline The Hunza people are well known for their longevity. How old you say? Well, many are known for being anywhere between 120 and 140 years old. Unfortunately their exact ages aren’t documented. The way they determine age is by events that happened near the time of birth. The Hunza’s are located in northern Pakistan in a valley surrounded by the Himalayan mountains.
