I remember reading about the discoveries surrounding telomeres and aging about five years ago. There’s a company that sells a product (which they claim) halts the degradation of the cells’ telomeres, which (they allege) slows down aging.
The papers I read were quite scholarly, and obviously the real deal. I would have given the product a whirl, but for the cost. Pretty expensive.
I remember that also. They seemed to be on the right track, but I wondered about the ethics involved. Who decides who gets this? Costs?
The left is already screaming about overpopulation, will they ever let it see the light of day?
If this works the only way to die is what, destruction of the body (gunshot, knife, explosion)?
Lots of questions to go with this discovery.
