Diluting Blood Plasma Rejuvenates Tissue, Reverses Aging in Mice.
Huh. Saline and albumin. On my to do list.
via berkeley.edu
In 2005, University of California, Berkeley, researchers made the surprising discovery that making conjoined twins out of young and old mice — such that they share blood and organs — can rejuvenate tissues and reverse the signs of aging in the old mice. The finding sparked a flurry of research into whether a youngster’s blood might contain special proteins or molecules that could serve as a “fountain of youth” for mice and humans alike.
But a new study by the same team shows that similar age-reversing effects can be achieved by simply diluting the blood plasma of old mice — no young blood needed.
In the study, the team found that replacing half of the blood plasma of old mice with a mixture of saline and albumin — where the albumin simply replaces protein that was lost when the original blood plasma was removed — has the same or stronger rejuvenation effects on the brain, liver and muscle than pairing with young mice or young blood exchange. Performing the same procedure on young mice had no detrimental effects on their health.
This discovery shifts the dominant model of rejuvenation away from young blood and toward the benefits of removing age-elevated, and potentially harmful, factors in old blood.

Doc - I was being facetious, of course. If our enemies can't love us, though, it sure would be nice if they feared us.

I remember years ago when Mick Jagger and Kieth Richards had to have regular blood transfusions years ago due to the amount of drugs they had to flush out of their systems. Speaking of vampires Kieth Richards sure looks like one!

This would certainly account for the disappearance and sacrifices of young children and babies now wouldn't it?

shhh JR, the blood banks will be on to you, you'll send them broke. Just when they are on to such a good thing as they pump blood of the poor into the veins of the unsuspecting rich. (without the inconvenience of quality control, for the highest dollar or franc) as seen here for example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16EL-ZexH5A
