Gratuitous Immortality-Drug Post: Russian Biochemist Claims Aging Cure; You’ll Find It At Walgreen’s… in 2261


-But it actually turned out in trials only to make a higher percentage of the lab animals reach old age.

None of them lived any longer than bog-standard-mouse-duration. Oh, Well.

Yes, Dr. Skulkachev has the obligatory “I experimented on myself and Look! -It works!”-story about his cataract.

The guy even gets a major hat tip from an Actual Nobel Laureate; -in Medicine, the Awesome-Hairdo-Sporting Dr. Gunter Blobel.

 
.

 
But most of the time if something sounds like a Panacea, it usually doesn’t work out.

Similar claims have been forwarded about all manner of substances, so it’s sort-of up to us to wait and see if the first human subjects Vlad tries this on show any improvement.

+THEN, it remains to be seen if the good doctor gets himself a Big Pharma Giant behind him to put the Decades and Billions in to do the Real long-term research,
(+ON A MOLECULE THEY CAN PATENT!)

At which point, somebody like Pfizer would charge UN-TOLD! sums for a pill that either Extends your life or Makes it Awesome, right up until the instant you die,

At the same age as the ~nearly-oldest human.



Is something like a super-old-age/immortality-drug, for real, coming down the road? -Yes.

Many, many years from now.


On A More Practical Note:, the only ~realistic game in town seems to be the Antioxidant Guys*, and the CNS-Preservin’, Muscle-Packin’ Calorie-Reduction Guys.

Oh well, until then: DO-ON’T STOP. BE-LIEE-VINN’!!! :)


*Also Note: What this guy seems to be trying, by most of the chatter out there, is to get antioxidants into the mitochondria (via a carrier-molecule), where they will do the most good.
