Puts me in mind of the STARGATE episode where RDA is afflicted with the rapid aging agent predominate on some planet. Of course, this is reversed in his case at the end, but not before he is interviewed by a native accustomed to a lifespan of a few weeks who asks him how long his race lives. He says, “eighty years”, and his correspondent says, “that’s forever,” and he says , “almost.”
Great episode.
old soviet science.

Vitamin B3 AKA Niacin
There is mention of niacin, vitamin B3, which has long been known to improve muscle strength.
the question of such “rememdies” I believe will always be
whether or not just drinking a “cure” a couple times actually reverses an aging condition, after which continuing to drink it is unnecessary, or if the results of the “cure” can only be sustained by NOT ever quiting a regular regimen of drinking the “cure”
as usual, as always in the past, none of these cures have ever “reversed an aging process”; they have only offset the affect, some affect of an aging process - not the process itself, and only sustained any offset with continuation of the remedy without end
What could possibly go wrong here. Courtesy phone for Smilin’ Bob! Bob please pick up!
