Medical Breakthrough

​

Cynthia Kenyon stunned the world by announcing that her laboratory had suppressed a single gene in earth worms, consequently doubling their normal life span. Other genetic changes discovered later, extended the worm’s life by six times. But just as important, the worms she worked on remained healthy and robust almost until they died. (Duncan in The New Science of Health, 2009)
 
Based on these findings researchers are now working to create a human anti-aging pill which has the ability to “turn on” a hormone system essentially needed later on in life. It is the human growth hormone which starts declining around the age of 21. After 60, only a small trace is left in the body and as a consequence our potency declines gradually and we become vulnerable to a number of degenerative diseases.
 
Modern medical science now treats aging as a disease which is controllable. Aging is defined by science as a disease that can be seen as a breakdown of various parts of the body and identified as blood pressure, asthma, angina, diabetes, hepatitis, etc. All of these aging symptoms could be reversed by maintaining hormone levels at a younger age – around 21 to 30 years of life. Since there is a receptor site in every cell in the human body for the human growth hormone this reversal process is quite possible.
 
A number of medical researchers are in the early stages of developing such a pill, which triggers a person’s own human growth hormone to be released again by stimulating the anterior pituitary to secrete HGH and therefore helping the body to heal itself.
