Horror method to repel cancer, heart disease Dracula type

Scientists use young people's blood to "rejuvenate" the elderly body, repel cancer, heart disease, dementia . just like how the vampire Dracula used the blood of girls.

This horror-tinged work was carried out by a prestigious research unit - University College London (UCL, a member school of the University of London, England). The authors claim: this is not a joke.

Count Dracula in the classic American "Dracula" film, produced in 1931 based on writer Bram Stocker's novel of the same name.

In Bram Stocker's famous "Dracula" novel, this vampire earl uses the blood of children and young women to maintain his strength, youth and immortality. New research by UCL shows that he did a horrible but very scientific job.

Of course, modern technologies allow people to easily access donated blood and receive blood transfusions in the usual way, instead of "hunting" like vampires. Considering the consequences of the above diseases, several blood transfusions are not wasteful.

In a recent paper in Nature, the team confirmed that if blood was given to young people, people could live the immune life with cancer, heart disease and dementia until death. old.

Geneticist Dame Linda Partridge, a member of the research team, said they started with mouse testing: elements that preserve natural health in the blood of baby mice have caused biomarkers in older mice. change, showing that they are being "improved" . In contrast, young mice are rapidly aging when they inject blood from old mice.

Later, they paid 70 volunteers, 35 and up to $ 8,000 / person just to "enjoy" the blood of younger people (16-25 years old).

The Dracula effect also occurs: Older adults receiving blood transfusions can reduce up to 20% of carcinoembryonic antigens, which are found in many cancer patients; 10% lower cholesterol; reduced amyloid protein - a protein that has been shown to form toxic blocks in the brain, causing Alzheimer's.

A 55-year-old patient with early onset Alzheimer's had a major improvement after only one "vampire" attempt.

This is not the first time Count Dracula has inspired ideas for bold healing methods. Earlier, a study from Stanford University (USA) showed that young human blood could help the demented elderly get their minds back. The team found that a protein called GDF111 abundantly in the blood of young people could improve every organ function, thereby "improving old people."
