Recent research on longevity is making the idea of an elixir of life sound increasingly plausible. But a startup thats started selling a $1 million anti-aging treatment is most likely jumping the gun.
Libella Gene Therapeutics says it will administer volunteers with a gene therapy that it claims can reverse aging by up to 20 years, according to OneZero. Despite the fact that this is the first human trial of the treatment, the company is charging volunteers $1m to take part. In an effort to side-step the FDA, the trial will take place in Colombia.
The therapy will attempt to repair peoples telomeres, the caps on the end of our chromosomes that shorten as people get older. Its long been thought that they play a role in aging, and efforts to extend telomeres in mice have shown that it can delay the signs of getting older and increase healthy lifespan, though its yet to be tested in humans.
Libellas therapy will use viruses to deliver a gene called TERT, which codes for an enzyme called telomerase that re-builds teleomeres, to the patients cells.

What are the odds that any DNA needed for this treatment comes from aborted babies?
Also, are super rich elites like George $ore$$, H. Clinton and ???????? have been getting this treatment and at what cost?
Turn them into hybrids, maybe?
Let’s just hope R B Ginsberg doesn’t get it.
Great, now we will have liberals who will live forever.
Much sooner!
Ray Kurzweil predicts the singularity (AI being as intelligent as humans) by 2029, and mortality “escape velocity” (biotechnology advancing fast enough to keep a human alive forever) in the early 2030s.
“Uh..I’ll take one for me, and one for the little lady.”
Lets just hope R B Ginsberg doesnt get it.

Soros already paid the freight for her. He threw in another million to get her treatment started in advance. Weve seen the notorious RBG, God help us when the horny RBG awakens. ;-)
What the article does not mention, but the research found, is that older mice that received this therapy outperformed younger mice in running mazes.
A researcher said it would be comparable to a 100-year-old human becoming a competitor in the Olympics.
I think they’re onto something. The techniques they used did not result in cancer and restored the youthfulness and vitality of older mice.
Unfortunately, people (especially liberals) seem to have a knack for taking great breakthroughs in science and technology and finding a way to use them for evil.
My guess is that the extremely wealthy and powerful will use this tech to lengthen their own lives but only allow the masses to have access under the condition that we enter a Faustian pact.
“Lets just hope R B Ginsberg doesnt get it.”
With her miraculous recent recovery, she may be getting it.
It certainly could do that. Hybrids without debilitating deformities that allows the body to succumb the aging process.
DNA manipulation that changes their paternal DNA - seed of the serpent.
“My guess is that the extremely wealthy and powerful will use this tech to lengthen their own lives but only allow the masses to have access under the condition that we enter a Faustian pact.”
I’ve read this before somewhere... But you are right and it seems like that is exactly where this type of technology is headed. As it is right now, it’s almost impossible to escape the surveillance state if you don’t agree to that future Faustian pact.
We've been posting this about Metformin around here for a couple of years or so.
Diabetes Drug Metformin Could Increase Human Lifespan To 120 Years
I swear, I read last night about a quantum computer that was increasing at double exponential.
I read it in Discover Magazine in an article titled: "The Rules Of The Road To Quantum Supremacy by Stephan Ornes.
They spoke of Neven's Law, Nevens Law: Paradigm Shift In Quantum Computers
