    The following website keeps track of that.

    What they don't keep track of which those
    of us who have any of the disparate High
    Glucose Conditions (HGCs) would be fascin-
    ated to know, how many supercentenarians
    have any HGC, which one(s) they have, and
    how long they've had them.

    With the passing of Kane Tanaka, the oldest living
    person is now Lucile Randon, born February 11 1904,
    now age 118 years and 73 days, lives in France.

    116-year-old Japanese woman crowned the world's
    oldest person by Guinness Book of World Records https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2019/03/09/worlds-oldest-person-japanese-woman-116-guinness-book-records/3114032002/

    Kane Tanaka wakes up at 6 a.m. each day, likes
    to study math and other subjects for fun and
    competes fiercely in the board game Othello.

    It's proven to be a pretty good combination for
    the 116-year-old from Fukuoka, Japan.

    Tanaka was named Saturday the new oldest living
    person in the world by the Guinness Book of
    World Records.

    She was recognized at a ceremony at her nursing
    home where she was given a commemorative framed
    certificate and a box of chocolates. She started
    eating the chocolates immediately, Guinness said,
    and responded with "100" when asked how many she
    planned to eat that day.

    Tanaka, the youngest of seven children of Kumakichi
    and Kuma Ota, was born prematurely on Jan. 2, 1903.
    Theodore Roosevelt was president of the United States
    and World War I was still a full decade away from
    changing geopolitics forever.

    She married Hideo Tanaka at 19, before they had ever
    met, following a Japanese norm at the time. The couple
    went on to have four children and adopt a fifth.

    Hideo Tanaka operated a family business that produced
    sticky rice and Udon noodles. Kane Tanaka took on a
    greater role in the family business after Hideo began
    military service in 1937 during the Second Sino-Japan-
    ese War. Their oldest son served in World War II and
    was held captive by the Soviet Union before returning
    to Japan.

    Kane Tanaka now resides in Fukuoka, located in the
    southwest portion of Japan, across the sea from South
    Korea.

    She's overcome several operations, including one for
    cataracts and another for colorectal cancer, according
    to Guinness.

    To become the oldest person ever recorded, Kane Tanaka
    would need to live another six years to surpass the
    record held by Jeanne Louise Calment of France for the
    past 22 years. Calment, born Feb. 21, 1875, died at
    the age of 122 years and 164 days on Aug. 4, 1997.
