It just break my heart to see people old in nursing home. I hope telomerase will make them young again and back on their feet.
I don't think she looks younger than before but she looks healthy and athletic. that itself is very promising. really look forward to those safety trials this year.
What you're looking at is a matter of skin elasticity, and neither gene therapy addresses that. However, the intramuscular fat reduction is extremely awesome. Muscular degeneration is one of the primary causes of "feeling old". An old person whose heart can beat as powerfully as a young person would be so productive and feel so great.
I'm excited for the future! Thanks, Liz, and other BioViva founders! You are great!
@@BujuArena THat's not true, telomere lengthening should affect skin elasticity as well according to Dr Bill Andrews.
My son is age 35. He became a type 1 diabetic when he was a child at the age of two years. I am so impressed with Liz Parrish in her role as a mom of a type 1 diabetic son, and admire her great resourcefulness and creativity in her response to and in the face of her son's illness. Amazing lady!!
I think Liz does look younger than the first video I saw her sometime back in 2015, if not younger at least no apparent aging. Best of continued luck and success Liz.
I don't understand "reversed aging" and "extended lifespan by 25%" within the same sentence. So what did they die from then?
she is 14!!
I find it fascinating that this inspiring video on biological immortality released April 2017, has less then 10,000 views.
Yet the meme song "the ting goes" A.K.A 'Mans not hot' by BIG SHAQ has over 53 million views since October 2017...........
mraaronjosephbonnici still too early. This biotechnology arms race to treat aging as a pathology that can or should be treated has just begun. I’m sure we are just beginning to hear about this. Each year advances are made the more people will take notice.
Its true becouse people think that may be puplicity only and not true.Astragalo or jiaogulan do the same,and for low cost jj.
People need to understand that trying to judge the effectivity of the therapy by her looks is wrongheaded. Looking younger and living longer are different. She's reversed aging when it comes to a bunch of internal stuff that help determine lifespan, but her gene therapy did absolutely nothing to her current skin structure, nor was it meant to.
Exactly!! Finally someone with brains is a good looking 46 years old woman that looks in her 40's with hanging skin under the jaw.... Adenovirus vector gene therapy is easy and cheap just look the vaccines.. It shouldn't cost more than 15k..they want ilicin valley dummies to pay 200k for lies and smoke
This cannot arrive quickly enough
Hola . La escribo . En Español . Yo tengo una pregunta. . El tratamiento contra en el envejecimiento. . Me podría explicar . Si . Se inyectó en varias partes del cuerpo . Y Este tratamiento en España en posible hacerlo . Gracias
skin aging is not just about the youth of cells...there is a lot of protein, such as collagen, in skin and remodeling of that causes skin to develop wrinkles and how to it retains moisture. The therapy she took might prevent her skin from aging at the same rate as her current age, but it doesn't reverse all the tissue structure that has damaged after 40ish years of sun exposure. You still need nanotechnology and need drugs to help remodel extracellular structure of tissue
Derrick Wade or take collagen therapy from day one
This is all true, but that doesn't mean that what she's doing isn't worth it. I'd be amazed if the first leap forwards in repairing some of the damage cause by our cells to ourselves due to the aging of the body was a single solution. It's going to be a multitude of therapies, and slowly but surely figuring out what works and what doesn't is a good thing, and if what Parrish has done gives us all an extra 10 years of good health then that's 10 years where we aren't suffering as much, and 10 years where new solutions can happen.
Is it possible to change skin color by gene therapy?
@@rahulpaul2976 you want to become black?))))
Telomerase restores collagen and elasticity according to Dr Bill Andrews
Your love for the subject emanates from each word you say.Good luck from India.
Mayur Panghaal is it possible to change skin color by gene therapy?
If we can quadruple the lifespan of other organisms the problem is probably a combination of the current paradigm we are living in and finding the right combination of treatments. With enough science behind it this will definitely work in the future.
Make Me A Guinea Pig
I hope we find something to cure diabetes typ 1.
If it reversed the aging in the mice, then why did they die, and why was only a 25% increase in lifespan? Surely if they reversed the aging, then the mice would just continue living?
it would need to be reapplied would it not? otherwise they will continue to age as normal - what is the incentive to keep them alive? not much really
Is it possible to change skin color by gene therapy? Mam
Telomeres are important , use TA 65 to increase your telomeres
Wait it took her 42 years, how old are you???? I thought she was 35
Good luck Elizabeth; I appreciate and commend your passion and positivity. I strongly support this cause and especially the attempt at eradicating life-crippling illnesses like alzheimer's. Hope everyone has a good day! :)
So what is her actual age?
Sameer Pawar. 46
I am a biologist from Poland Vitarejuveno Ltd. I wish to get this gene therapy. Bioviva is aging goodby.My problem is that Biotech busineses monetarise disease.It is unethical.
Good luck to Bioviva and Elizabeth and God help to obtain the results they speaking about and to use this technology in every good purposes.
Don't you dare involve god in this.
You can do your part, Share this video to get the news out, people start talking about it, getting more ideas and raise more money.
Obviously support of obtaining and using this technology in good purposes available only if this things is going in one list. Everything providing people help is good. So why to disable anyone from getting help when someone need it? So don’t you dare to ban anyone who wishes luck to make GOOD things. Everything using for good is worthwhile to support and blessing.
:D

It's hard to tell... She looked pretty damn hot to begin with, so hard to tell if she's 'getting any younger' :P
And even if she does look younger, that could be cosmetics really.. Or just living healthier I guess. Still, she doesn't look any OLDER so there's that!
Exactly. We shouldn't focus in the reverse aging, but instead how she stopped aging.
Agree she is lovely. =)
i'm skeptical... she looks the same before and after... she looks good for her age just the same.
So, she didn't invent anything herself, did she? But rather sells something other companies have invented?
we will just have to wait and see if this works or not. i think it would've been better for us to see the clear change if someone who is over 60 had undergone the therapy. since she is not that old or at least doesn't look that old, it's hard to detect the changes in her appearance. at least there are no extreme side effects like the one you see in the marvel films..that's good thing. Even if she fails, they will do research about why it didn't work in humans and it will reveal something which is better than nothing i guess. anyway i'm glad that she had undergone the therapy, even though it's controversial, it is definitely better than just sitting and waiting another decade for FDA to approve the therapy for humans.
This technology like all technologies will not make sufficiently large advancements until it exactly solves the differential equations that dictate the position & momenta of every particle in the universe. Have to be blunt. We don't have much time.
I think she is getting younger
the placebo effect
EAE she does indeed my friend
Can she cure aging... as in live forever....🙃🙃🙃🙃
pretty hard to tell whether this is from cosmetics or gene therapy
Thanks for trying for Humanities sake Liz, I truely appreciate it.
This sounds real expensive.$$$
A lot need to be invested in investigating aging.
té toi,stp
Scam !
I don’t know about improving human abilities (or something like that) by editing DNA but if we will not decrease intake of alcohol and other substances that damaging it (in many countries it is a big problem) then we will have a 100% crazy mutants in a few generations guaranteed. Maybe if people learn and understand what consequences can make their choices on their dna (at least) than there will be much less of bad choices they make.
té toi,dé gens ont rien,
give this woman a nobel prize!
You're a real hero Liz!
Genetic myostatin inhibition, yes please! "Bros" will jump on that stuff like it's the cure for cancer (no pun intended), and every dude will walk around with Arnold muscles and a douchebag personality. But also everyone will be healthier and look good.
FOOLS
im not nessecarily against her research, but ageing is NOT a disease.
Max T some scientist argue it is. Idk personally I see it as a disease.
If you look at the definition of a disease, it's pretty hard to argue against it being one.
The purpose of calling ageing a disease is not so much as to relabel it as a literal disease but so that we might treat ageing in the lab as a disease in order to enhance the effectiveness of any sort of treatment for aging.
