For those that don't know, some billionaires are injecting themselves with the blood of younger men because it supposedly extends their life. Obviously to anyone with common sense that's bullshit. But I don't want to look it up to argue with my friend and prove them wrong. But he got really upset at me today because I told him it's fucking dumb lol --- http://i.imgur.com/x04tPRZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/t7T392I.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

There is SOME basis on this. https://www.nature.com/articles/517426a It's called parabiosis, but you have to be stitched to a younger human being, not just using their blood. More key terms that you probably want to look into for aging if you want to convince your buddy otherwise is cellular senescence, telomerase, and the hayflick limit. There's more to look into if you're REALLY interested in the aging stuff. In case you don't want to read the whole thing here are the precautionary tales about doing such things without thinking it all the way through. Wagers is eager to see the results, but she worries that a failure would be difficult to interpret and so could set the whole field back. Plasma from a 30-year-old donor may not contain factors beneficial to patients with Alzheimer's, for example. She, Rando and others would prefer to see testing for a specific blood factor or combination of known factors synthesized in the lab, for which the mechanism of action is fully understood. Basically what rich people are doing is they read these titles of mice surviving off of young blood and go OK GIVE ME YOUNG BLOOD JUST LIKE THOSE MICE, without thinking things through. Whatever, if you want to throw your money away pointlessly without thinking they'll be happy to provide transfusions from younger people. Have fun placeboing yourself into thinking you're younger. There's a lot of basis on blood having factors in it that help a lot. Did you guys know that because of the nuclear bombings in japan, people had to have transfusions as they weren't able to make more of their own blood? They then discovered that some people who got transfusions just never needed anymore transfusions. A japanese scientist looked into this and bam, blood/hematopoeitic stem cells were discovered (man the sources on this are weird, what you learn in class may not always be correct). Here's a short one liner about it apparently. In 1945, civilian populations in Hiroshima and Nagasaki were exposed to atomic bomb explosions and radiation, and in retrospect, those who died from the lowest lethal dose of irradiation almost certainly died of hematopoietic failure.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2574516/ There ARE things in blood that get discovered. The tech is only getting better as cellular identification improves along with finding the purpose of those cells. TL;DR: Main point being, just because it works for mice doesn't mean it works for humans. --- [05:45:34] I bought an American L and it was like a tent ... Copied to Clipboard!
