Perspective of biological immortality

American experts are studying a case of girls who never grow old, hoping to hold the secret of "biological immortality".

Gabby Williams, in the city of Billings, Montana, may not be aware of it, but she is 8 years old, albeit not unlike a newborn. She is suffering from a mysterious disease that makes her body almost never develop as other peers. Gabby weighs about 5kg, which is about the same size as a baby about 2-3 months old, and therefore needs to be cared for as a newborn, from changing diapers to feeding several times a day. According to ABC News, the mother named Mary Margret Williams said her child hasn't changed much over the years. In fact, touching her skin still feels like touching a new baby, and her hair is still as smooth as silk.'She has a little longer and we switched to 3 - 6 month old baby clothes instead of 0 - 3 months, ' the mother said.

Gabby is one of the few people who is suffering from a mysterious disease that causes them to stop aging over the years. The disease is so rare that the scientific community has yet to officially name it. In 2011, her story was shared in a documentary called My 40-year-old , about Nicky Freeman, a 40-year-old Australian in the form of a 10-year-old boy. Since then scientists have discovered two more people in a similar situation: a 29-year-old Florida in the form of a 10-year-old boy, and the other in Brazil, 31 but looks like a little girl is at the age of practice speaking. The above objects have appeared on the special program of Radio TLC in the US, thanks to the discovery of medical researcher Richard Walker, currently implementing the project at Children's Hospital in St.Petersburg, Florida.

The subjects he is researching also have many different medical conditions, including deafness, unable to walk or even not eating or speaking. Walker expert explained that the process of changing physiology plays an important role for human development . 'Without that process we will never grow. When developing, every part of the body grows together and changes, all in a synchronized manner. If not, there will be chaos' , he said. However, the body continues to change once it reaches adulthood, and there is no way to prevent it. Walker said that one of the genes responsible for physiological changes was found, and said mutations in cases that were not nearly as old were on the genes of the sex chromosome. X number 2. Therefore, do not exclude the possibility that these individuals are holding the mystery of immortal springs.

Walker suggests that if genes can be identified and in the early stages of human maturation that can disrupt physiological development, then humans can be biologically immortal. Biologically immortal means that people still die from illness or accident, but they do not have to suffer from the normal effects of aging. They will retain their youthful appearance while their body functions still function as youthful strength.
