It is sin that ages people - back in the day the Patriarchs were closer to God and there was far less sin -they lived to be well over 800. It's all there in the Bible:
Ge:5:5: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.
Ge:5:8: And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years: and he died.
Ge:5:9: And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan:
Ge:5:10: And Enos lived after he begat Cainan eight hundred and fifteen years, and begat sons and daughters:
etc.
