Elixir of youth
I found the inflammation in the body. So theoretically, you could take someone who’s 100 years old and reset their body to be young again. Now, the exciting thing is we’ve been doing clinical trials or preclinical trials. And there’s no apparent downside to this year. Isn’t that great? That’s incredible.
So we published a year ago, on the cover of Nature magazine, which is the highlight of any scientists career that we can reset the age of a complex tissue, we chose the mouse’s eye, we let mice get old and blind, and we reprogram their eye using these three genes. And we turned the age back 80%. And they became a they were able to see again.
And so what we’re what we’re talking about is having found that there’s a reset switch in the body to be young again. And the inflammation in the body to be young is still there. We first made this discovery about three years ago. Since then, we’ve been doing hard work, which is to figure out is it safe enough to put into humans, and we’re now testing it in non human primates just to see if it’s safe. Oh my gosh.
And if all goes well, in the next few years, we’ll hopefully cure blindness and people but we found that there’s a universal reset switch so you can reset different parts of the body. You can reset the skin which then you can reset muscle
