One of the most exciting challenges of the research on aging is to explain how the environmental factors interact with the genetic background to modulate the chances to reach the extreme limit of human life in healthy conditions. The complex epigenetic mechanisms can explain both the interaction between DNA and environmental factors, and the long-distance persistence of lifestyle effects, due to the so called "epigenetic memory". One of the most extensively investigated theories on aging focuses on the inflammatory responses, suggesting that the age-related progression of low-grade and therefore for long time subclinical, chronic, systemic, inflammatory process, named "inflammaging", could be the most relevant risk factor for the development and progression of the most common age-related diseases and ultimately of death. The results of many studies on long-lived people, especially on centenarians, suggested that healthy old people can cope with inflammaging upregulating the antiinflammaging responses. Overall, a genetic make-up coding for a strong antiinflammaging response and an age-related ability to remodel key metabolic pathways to cope with a plethora of antigens and stressors seem to be the best ways for reach the extreme limit of human lifespan in health status. In this scenario, we wondered if the antifragility concept, recently developed in the framework of business and risk analysis, could add some information to disentangle the heterogeneous nature of the aging process in human. The antifragility is the property of the complex systems to increase their performances because of high stress. Based on this theory we were wondering if some subjects could be able to modulate faster than others their epigenome to cope with a plethora of stressors during life, probably modulating the inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses. In this framework, antifragility could share some common mechanisms with anti-inflammaging, modulating the ability to restrain the inflammatory responses, so that antifragility and antiinflammaging could be viewed as different pieces of the same puzzle, both impinging upon the chances to travel along the healthy aging trajectory.
