Abstract

A hypothetical mechanism of 14C-generated influence on a person's rate of aging is offered. The mathematical description and the following approbation of the radiocarbon mechanism of aging made it possible to coordinate the Gompertz and Strehler-Mildvan laws and predict the existence of one more, till-now unknown, interrelation of the parameters of people's natural death rate. A review of the death rate statistics of the populations of western European countries as well as the United States and Australia for the 19th and 20th centuries gave a positive result. It had been assumed that a person's organism has a "discrimination mechanism" aimed at limiting 14C incorporation into DNA structure and that the efficiency of this mechanism is different for different populations of people. It follows from the results of the research that the activity of such a discrimination function of an organism tends to sharply increase in proportion to an increase of 14C concentration in one's surrounding biosphere.
