It is noted that the desire to be immortal is the most important, strongest and oldest, alas, unrealizable dream of a person. A brief review of the history of the fight against human aging in different countries in different eras is given, as well as an analysis of the theoretical justifications for the causes and mechanisms of aging, the development of means and methods for combating old age. It is noted that the universal "geroprotector" is systematic work in its various physical and intellectual variants. It is shown that only the combined efforts of society, the state and the individual can optimally solve the problem of longevity of the country's population.
