«Breaking News» Young blood could be the solution to help elderly live longer and healthier, says scientist

Blood taken from a young person may help revitalise failing health in the elderly, following studies on young mice. 

Professor Linda Partridge from UCL's Institute of Healthy Ageing has drawn from the research into humans and animals and argued that humanity is close gaining the tools to prolong health. 

Her argument in the journal Nature comes amid a Harvard University company announcing that it would be investing millions to explore treatment based on the idea that the blood of young animals can help the older ones.

Professor Partridge told The Telegraph: 'I would say ageing is the emperor of all diseases.

'There's been all this fantastic research in animals. It's just crazy.

'We're really beginning to understand how malleable ageing is. Now we need to push to translate this into humans.' 

Research conducted in the area has already found that when blood from a young mouse is transfused into one when ill health it can help maintain vitality.

In 2014, researchers at Stanford University led by neuroscientist Tony Wyss-Coray, found that blood infusions from the young mice reversed cognitive and neurological impairments seen in the older mice.

This research is now looking into how humans may benefit from the animal studies.

A US clinical trial called Ambrosia, is already offering teenage blood to elderly customers at a cost of $8,000 for 2.5 litres and this week  saw another programme called Elvian announce it had a $5.5 million investment backing to conduct research in the field.

It's scientists, Harvard biologists, are exploring whether a blood protein called GDFII is the key ingredient. 

While it is too early to tell whether either company could benefit its customers Professor Partridge said other forms of intervention were necessary with  diseases of ageing threatening to bankrupt health services.

However, blood is not the only thing that can be taken by the elderly to keep their health, with Professor Partridge also suggesting the bacteria taken from a young person's gut may help the poor functioning 'microbiomes' in the elderly.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
