Skin cells made 30 years younger with new 'rejuvenation' technique

[staarker]

Researchers in the U.K. have developed a way to reverse the aging process in skin cells, turning back the biological clock by about 30 years.

De-aging cells has become increasingly common in the last decade, with researchers reprogramming multiple mouse, rat and human cell types. But never before have cells been de-aged by so many years and still retained their specific type and function.

Could this be like the "fountain of youth"? With the way the planet is already overpopulated, would this even be a good idea? And if this happens will this treatment be for everyone or just for a select few?

Does this mean that only the skin will look younger but the body will still be old? If so, I don't think that would be something that I wanted to try.

No doubt one will look young with this technique but I would rather keep my brain cells young and kicking and for that there are ways. Eat almonds in moderation, work on crossword puzzles. solve mathematical problems.......the works.
