Health Aging is reversible

Perhaps, but it's inevitable at this point. We keep advancing and Pandora's Box can't be closed. I think we'll merge with technology down the line, although it's arguable that we already have

There are several different on going methods to reverse aging at different levels. I have posted about some in the past. Some that work by replacing younger blood, using a modified version of a popular blood pressure drug, a drug not kidding that was created from fungal from Easter island and recently rewriting your stem cells.

This is just the beginning being able to turn yourself into America top model how much would a female actress or female billionaire pay? They are talking about genetic engineering on older people. But not to worry this is a small tent and if you don't have a few million you're not welcome.

Interesting take, it could stratify society depending on availability

That's before we realize we didn't actually reverse aging we just created zombies and everyone starts eating each other.
 
OK, they can reverse some pancreas changes and skin changes, but what about our brain? Imagine the living hell if your brain wasn't aging reversed but your body was....and surely, the brain and memories wouldn't be de-aged in the same manner that the rest of your body would be, would it?
 
I searched resveratrol in Apple News and it turned up an article saying some researchers accepted bribes to post fake findings and it may actually have a bad effect of having lower performance during exercise or something like that. It did suggest maybe super high doses may have been the cause there.

Restoring youth: Scientists use engineered cells to restore vitality in primates

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Capital Medical University utilized gene editing to create senescence-resistant human mesenchymal progenitor cells (SRCs). In a 44-week trial on aged macaques, biweekly intravenous SRC injections induced no adverse effects and spurred...

Looks like it’s all coming around!!

Soon there will be an immortal elite with servants, robots and total control of the earth

I recommend reading the whole article, but here's some excerpts:

Research suggests it is possible to slow or even reverse aging, at least in mice, by undoing changes in gene activity—the same kinds of changes that are caused by decades of life in humans.

By tweaking genes that turn adult cells back into embryoniclike ones, researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies reversed the aging of mouse and human cells in vitro, extended the life of a mouse with an accelerated-aging condition and successfully promoted recovery from an injury in a middle-aged mouse, according to a 2016 study published in Cell.



Belmonte, like some other anti-aging researchers, says his initial goal is to increase the “health span”—the number of years that someone remains healthy. Extending life span, the number of years someone remains alive, will likely take longer to achieve. Most major killers, including heart disease, cancer and Alzheimer’s, are diseases of aging that become far more common past middle age. “This is not just a matter of how many years we can live but how well we can live the rest of our life,” Ocampo says.

Belmonte says his team is also trying to determine if aging is a process that occurs simultaneously throughout the body. Or, as he puts it, “Is there some tissue that regulates aging—and when that goes bad, the entire organism goes bad?” He says they currently think the brain’s hypothalamus—known as the seat of control for hormones, body temperature, mood, hunger and circadian rhythms—may also act as a regulator of aging.

Other approaches that have been discovered to have anti-aging benefits in animals include calorie restriction, the drug rapamycin and parabiosis—the practice of giving old mice a blood supply from younger ones. The fact that these diverse strategies all seem to work suggests there may be more than one way to age, and that multiple complementary therapies may be needed to significantly extend longevity, Kaeberlein says.

Some compounds such as resveratrol, a substance found in red wine that seems to have anti-aging properties in high concentrations, appear to delay epigenetic change and protect against damage from epigenetic deterioration, Sinclair says. These approaches can reverse some aspects of aging, such as muscle degeneration—but aging returns when the treatment stops, he adds. With an approach like the one Belmonte lays out in the new study, theoretically “you could have one treatment and go back 10 or 20 years,” he says. If aging starts to catch up to you again, you simply get another treatment.

“This work is the first glimmer that we could live for centuries,” Sinclair says, adding that he would happily do so himself: “Forty-seven years went by pretty quickly.”



AI, figuring out the aging process--this is an interesting time to be alive. It seems we'll be figuring out how to extend our life spans as AI & robotics takes away our entire working function in society, lol.

It's an inevitability with the amount of $ going into this research and especially into bigger-umbrella tangential research, as well as the development of more capable and affordable physical equipment in which to do various large-scale biosample research.

Also I gotta remember that term "embryoniclike"

Not only does looking at it make my thinker hurt in a good way, it could become a poignant aspect of shit-talking like "Hey buddy well yeah whatever you just said but in all seriousness you act like a man who's bothered by his embryoniclike tallywhacker!"

That'll teach that jerk to start shit I tells ya!

I read a few books a week ago about a diet that claims to reverse aging. It was about acid/base balance in the body. the basic idea being that we eat to many foods that are acid causing, and our body struggles to counter the extra acid being eaten. The extra acid then goes around the body causing aging and making us fat. According to the book body fat comes from the bodies inability to counter the acid with a base material, and then stores it as fat. Apparently fat is more acidic.

Not a whole lot of science with the pH diet I thought, but being honest the people who follow the diet look young and great. Something is going right with that diet I thought.

The pH Miracle: Balance Your Diet, Reclaim Your Health​



Forget counting calories, fat grams, and cholesterol. Forget blood pressure, blood sugar, and hormone levels. The single most important health measurement is the pH level in your blood. Now, The pH Miracle unlocks the surprisingly crucial role pH balance plays in weight loss. How acidic or alkaline your blood is (pH levels) directly affects your health and is controlled by diet.

For example, if the blood becomes overly acidic from eating too much of the wrong kinds of food -- wheat, bananas, meats, and cheese -- it can lead to weight gain, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and more. The Youngs' program includes over 50 recipes and explains which foods to eat, which to avoid, and which supplements can help on the way towards optimal health and weight loss. In just weeks, readers will find they have more energy and a stronger immune system, and will have shed pounds and inches.
 
I’m always surprised by medical advancements (especially with the gut microbiome for diseases long thought housed in the brain) but doubly how hair loss reversal still eludes us. Weird stuff. George Costanza > science.

You can slow down the aging process that is obvious, but you cannot reverse things that is BS.
 
Dystopian future is now one step closer.
This will only be for the rich.

Red flag #1: The authors are a husband and wife team

Red flag #2: The author with a supposed PhD has "grifter" written all over him

Young, who is not a medical doctor, has received doctorates for naturopathy and nutrition from Clayton College of Natural Health (formerly American College of Holistic Nutrition), a defunct correspondence school that was not accredited by any agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education
