The first published version of a lifespan doubling technology is described at http://www.vrp.com/art/1083.asp Dr. Max Odens conducted a study with ten 750-day-old rats, of a species that had a normal lifespan of 800-900 days. Five rats were untreated controls. The other five received weekly injections of “DNA solution in water…plus ordinary RNA.” Unfortunately, details of the exact composition and dosage that was administered were not given. After twelve weeks of injections, Odens reported that the treated rats looked younger, were very lively, and had gained weight, in contrast to the untreated rats which “looked old, moved slowly, did not eat much, and had lost weight. The difference was remarkable.” Odens further reported that all of the untreated rats died before 900 days, while 4 of the treated rats survived between 1600 and 1900 days, and one rat lived 2250 days! Odens concluded that “with weekly injections of DNA and RNA, the life span of 4 rats was doubled on the average, and the life span of the fifth rat was more than trebled.” These results are frankly, hard to believe. But some credence must be given this report, considering the journal in which it was published—the prestigious Journal of the American Geriatrics Society
Here are my thoughts
Replicate the study.
Hype: With an artificial heart you live a few years longer With a GIG your lifespan doubles.
The first journal published reference I'm aware of where a mammals lifespan was doubled was IV RNA plan: reproduce the result. New technology: GI resections are well developed technology. A GI Graft that contains a shunt to a major vein would allow humans to swallow magnetic or surface treated pills, that then linger n release at the GIG, then the GIG delivers a very high concentration of medication to the bloodstream. Useful with a variety of medications creating a laproscopic or endoscopic surgery to place the GIG is beneficial. GIG a surgery, with medication that doubles lifespan Vast numbers of people would double their lifespan with pills, few with IV. GIG allows IV to be replaced with pills.
Giving rats IV RNA to double their lifespan is like giving people IV ebay. There's a lot of stuff there, The car, house, food, electronics are useful but what about the RNA videos, beanie babies, garments, n memorabilia. small interfering RNA siRNA are drugs of their own. A wide variety of RNA application theories are testable with daphnia or artemesia: just common repeats, rare sequences only, amino acid ratios, mRNA, tRNA, High diffusion rate short non siRNA, RNA sequences produced with the most common RNAses, RNA sequences produced with rare RNAses. Vastly more ideas are possible. Each of these has possible merit to equal or better the published lifespan doubling with what the author called ordinary RNA.
