Can humans stay young forever?

CAIRO Sept 6 (SEE): Researchers from University of Harvard and New South Wales developed a new anti-ageing technique that can see humans live to150 years old and allow them to regrow their organs by 2020.

Harvard Professor Dr.David Sinclair said,"The technique which involves reprogramming cells could allow people to regenerate organs, and even allow paralysis sufferers to move again, with human trials due within two years."

According to The Herald Sun, researchers also found that the lifespan of mice can be increased by 10% after giving them a vitamin B derivative pill.

Dr.Sinclair hopes that the pills to be available to the public within five years and cost the same each day as a cup of coffee. He said that his biological age has dropped by 24 years after taking those pills.

The technique is based on the role of molecule nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) in generating energy in the human body.

However, professor from the Department of Genetics at Harvard Medical School warned people from trying the process before not to try before being scientifically reviewed.

He warned people saying, "We do not recommend people go out and take NAD precursors as they have not yet formally tested for safety."
