The company has licensed and has begun developing a rejuvenation program therapy that features a medley of FDA approved prescription and non prescription drugs that offers an intracellular approach to slowing and possibly reversing the aging process in humans.
"It is well established that the primary biological cause of aging is the increasing proportion of senescent cells in the body. Cell senescence is the result of reduction in the telomere length of the individual cells as they repeatedly divide to replace dead cells," explains Symmetry President Chad Reed. "Our rejuvenation therapy process employs a process of selective chemical pruning of senescence cells and replenishment by stimulating the production and conversion of adult stem cells to cells with full (youthful) telomere length." Telomere length is the most reliable biological age marker, length inversely proportional to age. The Company's research in this area is being pursued in cooperation with Quantum Bit Induction Technology, Inc. and a small group of Ph.D. biologists.
"Another overlooked aging problem," continues Mr. Reed, "is that virtually every human has contracted some strain of the herpes virus, although in most people it is asymptomatic. There are many forms of herpes from simplex to chickenpox and multitudes of others. The herpes virus is introduced, to the general population, almost daily and accelerates cell senescence. We believe that the many forms of the, highly communicable, herpes virus slowly, almost imperceptibly, wreak havoc with the body's immune system and ultimately contribute substantially to the aging process."

I am not as knowledgeable as some here and wanted the opinion of those with the biotech background to comment on their approach to anti-aging therapy.
