However, that's what I was reading about exoskeletons, and eye implants for the blind, a number of years ago. Now they both have FDA approval and are happening.<br /><br />James, I'd sign up for just about anything to extend my life (just so long as it goes hand in hand with quality of life) ... except of course sensible stuff like giving up smoking.<br /> Neal Asherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13933911904170752700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-84809628626507485172013-03-10T16:06:52.166+00:002013-03-10T16:06:52.166+00:00Anti-oxidants were once thought to be great for an...Anti-oxidants were once thought to be great for anti-ageing too. However this research does look encouraging, calorie restriction has shown great results in animals, and I believe it's starting to show good results in humans.<br /><br />If this drug can reproduce the effects of calorie restriction then it could well be a big breakthrough. Hopefully it's such a big breakthrough there's a huge demand for it, which makes the price plummet so most of the population that want it can afford it.<br /><br />I'm interested to know whether you, Neal, would sign up to take it if it's approved for human use?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-84093019763882975292013-03-10T11:48:56.983+00:002013-03-10T11:48:56.983+00:00hmmm i do feel that we've been here before how...hmmm i do feel that we've been here before however in any case theonly solution is more research. for a long time telomeres were the holy grail of anti-ageing, now this. more likely to be a combination of all these things... test the hypothesis!Jebel Kronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18268376841818116214noreply@blogger.com
