If there were the option of living forever, most of us would not think twice about saying yes. Being immortal seems like one of the greatest adventures there can ever be. We have seen immortality in movies for a long time. This may be what inspired the project of young blood therapy. People could actually have the option of remaining young.

The man who came up with the idea of trying out parabiosis is known as Peter Thiel. He is hell-bent on finding a cure for both death and aging. He has actually funded many projects concerning this research and volunteers to be the first patient once the project is complete. He is encouraging the rest of society to embrace this theory as he has.

This rejuvenation can be referred to as parabiosis. This is the process of combining the blood circulation of an old and young organism together. It can also be done by injecting young blood into the body of an older animal or person. Apart from preventing or slowing down aging, is to curb diabetes, regulate metabolism and control cancer.

The concept of this all seems impossible but has actually been tested and worked. The blood of the younger beings seems to be working for the improvement of the older person. It seems to improve or totally renew the organs in the body of its subject. This shows that a prolonged life is possible.

How exactly does this rejuvenation work? It seems that the blood of these old rats is able to rejuvenate the cells of the organs in the body of the old rat. An experiment was carried out, and when observed, the older rat seems to be a lot stronger. The brain, the muscles, and heart seemed to have improved a great deal. The fur also appeared smoother and shinier.

In California, a company known as ambrosia is already a step ahead of all the other companies. This is because this is because testing on human beings has almost begun. The plan is to have subjects of between 25-35 years of age. The 35-year-olds are injected with the blood of the 25-year-olds. They are then observed for a couple of years, and a conclusion is drawn.

As much as this project may be embraced by many and since this the only way that can lead to leaving long on this world, it is unlikely that everyone will be on board at the beginning. For example, the religious community is unlikely to accept this at all since from the creation it has never been in dairies or in accounts of creation. To them, it will seem as a mockery or as a challenge to God. No doubt however that with time, they will change their minds as no one wants to become old and weak as time goes by.

If by chance this experiment actually works on people, we may be looking at the possibility of the much-admired immortality. People will actually be able to live for as long as they want since the only option is to transfuse the young blood to the older adult.
