  1. Now researchers have found a way not just to stop, but, reverse the aging process. The key is something called a telomere. We all have them. They are the tips or caps of your chromosomes. They are long and stable in young adults, but, as we age they become shorter, damaged and frayed. When they stop working we start aging and experience things like hearing and memory loss.

    In a recent study published in the peer reviewed journal Nature scientists took mice that were prematurely aged to the equivalent of 80-year-old humans, added an enzyme and essentially turned their telomeres back on. After the treatment they were the physiological equivalent of young adults. You can see the before and after pictures in the videos above. Brain function improved, their fertility was restored it was a remarkable reversal of the aging process. In the top video the untreated mouse shows bad skin, gray hair and it is balding. The mouse with it’s telomeres switched back on has a dark coat color, the hair is restored and the coat has a nice healthy sheen to it. Even more dramatic is the change in brain size. Before treatment the aged mice had 75% of a normal size brain like a patient with severe Alzheimers. After the telomeres were reactivated the brain returned to normal size. As for humans while it is just one factor scientists say the longer the telomeres the better the chances for a more graceful aging.

    Cells in the amniotic fluid that surrounds a developing baby can revive ageing and weak bones, say UK scientists.

    The discovery could help babies with genetic diseases, elderly people and even astronauts, they say.

    The findings in mice, published in Scientific Reports, showed cells in the fluid strengthened bone and cut fractures by 80%.

    Human clinical trials are planned within the next two years.

  3. If i ran the world, i would share it with you, NWO nurse Nina.

    Jesus was always kind to the sex workers. Our wounded soldiers need a Nurse like you, knwo what i mean? As, Borat says, they need “hand relief”.
