Naomi Whitehead, 114, is the oldest living person in the US. She shared some of the lifestyle choices that she thinks have helped her live so long. Whitehead never expected to live so long, telling New Castle News in 2023: "I'll live as long as the Lord lets me." But average life expectancies are growing, alongside interest in how our lifestyles can help us live longer. Whitehead is now the oldest living person in the US after the previous titleholder died in October.
