I can't track down the source right this moment, but a podcast I listen to mentioned this factoid pretty recently. The average lifespan of Americans (assuming you made it out of childhood alive) has increased a few years for women (probably because not many die during childbirth anymore), and .6 years for men since the founding of the country.
I actually believe that humans during old testament biblical times lived much longer. I know that makes evolutionists angry since they believe today is the longest lifespan in human history.

So it's actually not that much.
