The researchers found that a unique protocol of treatments with high-pressure oxygen in a pressure chamber can reverse two major processes associated with aging and its illnesses: the shortening of telomeres (protective regions located at both ends of every chromosome) and the accumulation of old and malfunctioning cells in the body...The clinical trial was conducted as part of a comprehensive Israeli research program that targets aging as a reversible condition.

Madonna has done this for decades.
Go Google her looks today....
I am going to say....fail.
Bkmk
I thought oxidation was the problem , we need to take anti oxidants.
bacon still appears to be the best answer.....................
This has been posted before with info including one from someone who instructs on how to use machine if anyone is interested..also on my thread looking for veteran volunteers
Bacon sounds like a winner!!!
I been craving cool fresh oxygen for a while now.
I’ll submit that the two processes can alternately be reversed by eliminating their markers and causes. The chemicals which cause the two aging contributors. Telomere shortening results from epigene malfunction, and epigene malfunction results from malfunctions in the Krebs cycle and mitochondria. Likewise, accumulation of old cells is caused by accumulation of four classes of chemicals, glucose, bleaches, aldehydes, and uric acid. All of these chemicals are associated with diet and exercise. They are also associated with inborn genetic makeup, so there’s only so much a person can do. The best key is to listen to your body .....things like, if you have a headache this morning then review what you ate yesterday. Pick out a suspect food and run a diet elimination challenege on the food. See what happens. You might need to eliminate the food.
If you can stand being inside a sealed plastic tube for an hour or so, you can have my share.
In the late 50’s, the nun would put you in the closet, if you ahem earned that right.
think I remember michael jackson doing something like this also, again , FAIL
This was posted yesterday as well.
Science Daily is an aggregate site posting articles from diverse sources that the owners believe will be interesting to their followers without scrutanizing them. This “research” borders on being a hoax. Healthy living is a fine balance... too much of anything is generally bad. Oxidative stress causes damage to the cells in our bodies, as well as strand breaks in DNA.
Oxygen is like so many other natural paradoxes. We need it to live but it also can be very damaging to our bodies at a celular level. Do we need to be reminded that bleach works mostly through oxidation. It makes our white underwear look clean, but it also destroys them.
Our friend came down with a serious case of pneumonia recently not from coronavirus, but from being a fanatical mask wearer. Her old compromised immune system could not handle the excess stress of constantly rebreathing the bacteria and viral particles from the petri dish she had on her face nearly 24/7. She ended up on oxygen therapy for an extended period of time and the oxygen did serious damage to her lungs. Now she is stuck in a nursing home until her lungs recover.
“Prolonged exposure to above-normal oxygen partial pressures, or shorter exposures to very high partial pressures, can cause oxidative damage to cell membranes, collapse of the alveoli in the lungs, retinal detachment, and seizures. Oxygen toxicity is managed by reducing the exposure to increased oxygen levels.”
I do know hyperbaric treatment has been used for years for race horses. https://www.fairhilletc.com/services/hyperbaric-oxygen-therapy
I can think of at least two Chicago trainers that use this for their horses.
Try not eating for 7 days or more. After awhile your body scavenges the crap cells and produces stem cells. And not eating is cheap.
In critical care, we see free radical injury and fibrosis of the Lunds with Inspired fraction greater than 60%. It is pretty rapid so we do everything we can to keep inspired fractions at or below 60%. Sometimes it is damn near impossible.
Easier said than done .... /s
Re: This “research” borders on being a hoax.
Actually, it has not been posted at FR before.
This was published a couple days ago in the medical journal “Aging.”
The journal “Aging” definitely has critics.
However, Tel Aviv University is one of the most respected research institutions in the world.
Consequently, I think their paper deserves to be taken seriously until proved otherwise.
Also, I am a life long runner, so I tend to look skeptically at “no effort” solutions to human aging.
However, this paper appears to be highly focused and rigorous, so I think it is worth reading.
Wasn't that what Michael Jackson used?
Everyone ages, everyone gets old and everyone dies. That’s just the way it is, it can’t be avoided.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has also been used experimentally in the treatment of PTSD and TBI in military personnel. Some patients have shown remarkable improvement in their condition.
Some clinical trials have been conducted but I am unable to find any results. This therapy has many positive possibilities.
