Researchers recently discovered a hormone that may extend your life. Thus far this hormone has only extended the life of several mice, however it may help scientists develop new drugs that can expand our lives as well. Wouldnt it be great if scientists discovered the real life fountain of youth? The idea may not be as far fetched as we once believed.
The Fountain Of Youth
The hormone recently identified by researchers is a natural substance produced by all mammals. That means human beings produce this hormone. In theory this hormone or some derivative thereof may reduce or suppress the aging process in humans in the years to come. Of course, research is still in its preliminary phase. Researchers have a long road ahead of them before they can claim they have discovered a valid anti-aging hormone that can suppress aging in humans. Scientists future goals include investigating whether a manufactured substance or the hormone itself may help extend humans lives. If nothing else, this incredible discovery may help researchers better understand what happens to our bodies as we age.
