There is a recent announcement that gonadatropin releasing hormone, GnRH modulation causes 20 pct greater lifespan http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/23636330.

This reference http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/22202100 describes a human GnRH vaccine that modulates gnRH thus it is possible that there is an existing technology which with one application could make people live longer

If you search GnRH vaccine human at pubmed there are many results. http://www.ncbi.nlm....h vaccine human Based on the Nature paper It is possible many of these have application to increasing human longevity

Looks like a pretty good find TSV.

So if medicine needs to treat a disease in order to be a medicine and aging isn't an officially recognized disease, how do we go about getting a vaccine? Would it be possible to get a supplement vaccine? How would something like this work?

This article describes how a nonhuman GnRH vaccine product Improvac^® is used to improve the flavor of dead animals. I am not a physician. I am not a veterinarian. I favor vegetarianism.

So we should talk to our Veterinarian about it huh? More stuff for our "big rats!"

Actually there are apparently Oral GnRH vaccines with veterinary application. http://www.google.co......-Address&ie== so thats possibly a one dose oral longevity medication

Here is a link to a USDA developed GnRH vaccine describing the mechanism http://www.aphis.usd...trol/gnrh.shtml

I wonder what the duration of effectiveness as a longevizing agent is at humans. http://www.aphis.usd...l/gonacon.shtml
