The Science
Recent incredible breakthroughs by international researchers on how we can slow down, or even reverse, aging demonstrated by better example by infecting mice with reprogramming genes. This study restored eyesight in old mice which disclosed reversing the aging and allowing the cells to survive and grow like a newborn’s. This information led scientists believe that aging is loss of epigenetic rather than genetic information in the form of mutations.
We believe that this bold new theory about aging and increasing lifespan could be reality soon by working with leading scientific community on genetics and longevity.
Hence we are happy to use technology that can foster health care and aging in place. In the near future we may not just be able to feel younger, but actually become younger.
