Anti-Aging Method Found To Increase Mouse Lifespans By 35 Percent

  • 8 years ago
Researchers have revealed in a new study that they have been able to increase lifespans in mouse by as much as 35 percent--along with good health--by injecting them with a drug that clears away stagnant cells known to contribute to aging-related problems.

Scientists may have found a new way to not only extend lifespans by up to 35 percent but also to expand the amount of time spent healthy. 
They focused on senescent cells which are those that have become stagnant over time. 
Eventually, this material ceases to divide which results in the physical signs of aging like arthritis, frailty, and organ decline.
