In ancient cultures, blood was a mysterious liquid in the human body, it represented the most powerful vitality, and was once thought to be able to cure various diseases through exchange blood.
When the gladiators in the ancient Roman Colosseum fell to the ground bleeding, some epileptics would come forward frantically to drink the blood from the wounds. Emperor Xianfeng of the Qing Dynasty asked his ministers to donate live deer in order to improve their fitness, so as to ensure that they could drink fresh deer blood in time. The “human blood steamed bread” described by Lu Xun also reflects that some people in the folk may believe that human blood can cure tuberculosis.
One. Research has confirmed that young blood can restore “youthful vitality”
The therapeutic effect of exchange blood may seem ignorant, but many scientific studies have found that young blood can indeed bring special effects.
In May 2020, the scientific research team from the University of California in the United States said that by injecting 6 middle-aged mice 8 times with young plasma for a test period of 155 days, the experimental results showed that: The average biological age has regressed by 54%. In terms of human age, it is reversed from 50 years old to 25 years old, and 25 years younger.
In 2011, the international journal “Nature” pointed out that injecting young blood into old animals can improve the brain’s learning and memory ability and reverse the aging effect. “Rejuvenation” has reached a youthful state.
Cell-free serum was collected from 2-month-old mice and injected into 18-month-old mice in eight divided doses over a one-month period. Put them in a water maze and test whether they can remember the location of a hidden platform.
It turned out that the older mice did almost as well as the younger mice, with the untreated mice making a lot of errors and swimming into dead ends in their attempts to find.
In 2021, “Nature Aging” research said that the mechanism of exchange transfusion prolonging lifespan may be related to extracellular vesicles circulating in the blood, which carry Synthetic instructions for “longevity proteins,” and aging alters this vesicle, rendering this instruction ineffective.
Second. In order to seek longevity, more than 600 wealthy people in Silicon Valley participated in the exchange blood experiment.
The results of the reversal of aging brought about by the exchange blood experiment are amazing, but the theory behind this has not formed a unified conclusion, but it is still the same. Attracting the world’s richest people willing to try “crazy blood exchange” in order to “rejuvenate”.
It is understood that Peter Thiel, founder of PayPal, an American billionaire, spends $40,000 a quarter to deliver some fresh blood of 18-year-olds just to be able to live to 120 years old. Known as the “Vampire of Silicon Valley”.
As a result, Ambrosia, a medical company specializing in blood exchange services, was established in Silicon Valley. Fresh blood is obtained from the body, filtered out of red blood cells, and then injected into middle-aged and elderly clients. More than 600 wealthy people have already participated in the experiment.
But in 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned that the therapy’s benefits were unproven and that the practice could be harmful.
Third, the international journal “nature” selected “7 rigorous anti-aging methods”
Compared to the crazy longevity methods of the Silicon Valley rich, ” By reviewing the century-old history of anti-aging and a series of review articles, “Nature” selected 7 relatively more rigorous anti-aging strategies.
Among them, two pointed to GeNAD at the same time, and the other methods were calorie restriction, rapamycin, senolytics (senescent cell lysing agent), metformin, and exercise.
About GeNAD (one of the derivatives of vitamin B3) dating back to 2013, the Harvard University David Sinclair team used NAD+ pre-treatment in 22-month-old mice After a week of body mass, the key indicators of aging in mice returned to 6 months of age, which is equivalent to the reversal of human beings from 60 years old to 20 years old, and their lifespan has been extended by 30%.
Professor Sinclair said in an exclusive interview with the magazine that he would take 500mg every morning, and DNA methylation and telomere length tests showed that his biological age was reduced by 18.6 years.
Compared to the 600 wealthy people who are pursuing blood exchange to achieve their longevity goals, the transformation of biotechnology NAD+ results is more worthy of the trust of high-net-worth individuals and its implementation The product has a significantly wider audience.
Taking my country’s domestic top market brand “Novis NAD+” as an example, its 20According to consumption data released by JD.com at the end of 2021, at least 100,000 people have consumed the ordinary version of NAD+ anti-aging supplements that have been mass-produced using the full enzymatic method, with a repurchase rate of 84%.
After independent market tests, Novus NAD+ has indeed achieved satisfactory results: 30.1% of people said they were energetic, and 20.3% of people reported a significant improvement in memory , 17.8% of the people said that the quality of sleep is better…Anti-fatigue, skin and hair, gray hair and other problems have been significantly improved.
Fourth, the field of aging continues to break through new technologies, and the century-old era is just around the corner
It is estimated that the number of elderly people over 60 years old in my country will reach 300 million ( During the 14th Five-Year Plan period), entering a moderately aging society will inevitably lead people to explore how to prolong the life cycle and how to age healthily.
In this regard, capitalists have long targeted the market gap in the anti-aging technology services. The 92-year-old real estate richest man Li took the lead in choosing NAD+ biological anti-aging substances for his own use and investing 170 million yuan.
In 2019, the “Novis NAD+” introduced in China was favored by capitalists, and was invited by Kaidong to officially purchase the product for sale. It was even listed as the top 1 nutritional supplement of Kadong biological food, and the supply was once in short supply.
In general, although there are still many limitations in the research and development of anti-aging strategies and substances, the progress of human beings in this field in recent years is worthy of recognition, and perhaps in the future , we can find a truly effective and feasible life extension strategy.
