Research indicates that young human blood plasma may have rejuvenating effects

Aleteia-

Researchers from Stanford University have found that the infusion of plasma from the blood of young people may be beneficial for Alzheimer’s patients. They first became aware of this possibility after the publication of another study from Stanford, earlier this year, in which researchers injected older mice with young human blood plasma and saw rejuvenating effects.

Dr. Sha, a researcher on the team, notes that while caregivers have noticed an increase in attention span and conversation participation, there is no indication that the therapy will reverse memory loss. She cautions patients from rushing into treatment before their study is complete.

“I worry that people would take this information and say, ‘I need to get this. I need to get young blood.’ It’s important to understand the science behind this first,” Sha said

  1. Read an article yesterday where they are developing filters to cleanse blood that accumulates harmful pathogens over the years. I’ll give it a try, my coffee just isn’t getting me there anymore.

  2. For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.
    -Leviticus 17:14
