      I'm planning to angle myself into this field as a biomedical engineer, and I can tell you multiple leading figures have estimated 20 years for big advancements. Some say they are already there(one person, but he's taking upwards of 100 pills a day and has tons of money). Aubrey de Grey has been estimating 2035 for Longevity Escape Velocity - the point where new treatments come out every year that add more than a year to your life for every year you live. Juan Carlos Izpisua Belmonte has published a study recently where he expressed three specific Yamanaka Factors(tl;dr, 4 turn cells back to stem cells) in mice and their cells showed signs of rejuvenation and they physically appeared to look younger. He's thrown out the estimate of 20 years - so 2042. Another result using the same mechanic that was the proof of concept was done in David Sinclair's Harvard Lab that used those factors to restore the optic nerve.
      And, this is where I want to work, Altos Labs was founded earlier this year with an astounding pool of scientists(including aforementioned Dr. Belmonte and Shinya Yamanaka) with $3 billion in funding from two people - one of whom is Jeff Bezos. If you're Gen Z, at the current rate of progress you're likely on the cusp - a 50/50 of making it in my eyes. I myself have started working out this year in order to improve my odds cause I'm an early zoomer, but on the flipside my living relatives are living looong(dead at 94, doing very well at 88 and 85. I like my personal odds). Some people will say Gen Z is likely to make it based on above, but those were specific scenarios. The experiment that visibly made mice younger(and actually did too) was done on genetically modified mice to produce the factors when exposed to a specific chemical. One of the struggles in genetic engineering is affecting the whole body - every single cell in the body - and is something that needs more work before we go up and say "holy shit just need to wait for clinical trials!" The point is the concepts have been proven to a degree in one aspect, a lot of execution and other therapies will need to be done.
      To end on some good news, 3D printing organs is on the rise. My school, not a huge one, is just getting a cell 3D printer. You'll be able to regrow your organs and replace them, and multiple trials are currently in the work that will hopefully turn out good in humans. Therapies will come in our lifetimes, and the field is only going to grow. So have faith, and enjoy your life in the meantime instead of waiting for the end of aging.

    People who say they don't want to live forever should still support this because you can always change your mind later but not if you're already dead. I have been saying this... longevity is our choice! If we want to sustain our health, we have to do something about it! This will start by knowing what supplies our body needs. Start by eating a balanced diet, quit vices, exercise regularly and take an NMN supplement. Mine is a 500mg per day, NMN by Vitruvin.

    Well my grandpa was really healthy.
    He always did yoga and my father said that he was doing yoga when there was a yoga camp in our city
    And from then no matter it's raining or it's winter he would do yoga everyday and a weird thing that we are a Hindu family but my grandfather's preferred language was Urdu not Hindi. He was 85+ and he would give all his pension in mandirs[Hindu church] and bhandaras [where anybody could eat food for free]
    He would travel in government buses and still he only had some minor issue of high blood pressure but he only believed in Ayurveda and never took medicines from a doctor, although he would go for a check up.
    Unfortunately he died last year while crossing road when a truck collided with him

      The dilemma, at least for me, is that if you live until you “choose to die”, then wouldn’t that be no different than suicide? I would never be able to have the guts to just voluntarily die. Another dilemma, is that if people were to “live much longer”, say like 400 years, then the balance between birth and death would be out of order, until eventually the population would stabilize at a very ludicrous population value, assuming birth rates per woman stay constant. This could exceed the carrying capacity on Earth, so we’d either have to reduce or birth rate or spread throughout the solar system to accommodate for the unavoidable population increase caused by lifespan increase.

      Humans do live a lot longer than most mammals of similar weight... I also know that Humans are pretty much fine tuned for long distance running and travel (as in, literally strolling after prey until the prey just says “fuck this, I’m done” and dies from exhaustion). I don’t know how that would relate to metabolism for size, but it wouldn’t surprise if some of the adaptations to maintain sufficient aerobic respiration going even under physical stress, would also play a role in helping to reduce long term tissue damage and help more complete repair of damaged tissue (people do scar over more as well, but said scar tissue is generally tougher as well)

      Life is what gives meaning to life and death is NOT inevitable and I'll explain why:
      Technology is all about overcoming nature; all medical conditions will become curable, all accidents will be prevented, people will become more physically durable, ect., so all of the problems that cause death will be cured.
      Cryonics is a medical experiment that has all of the evidence in the literature supporting its feasibility, so it's realistic to think that people who are cryopreserved under the best current conditions have a good chance of being revived in the future.
      Rejuvenation research is the area of scientific research in which underlying damages that build up and lead to medical conditions (such as most cancers, Alzheimer's, dementia, ect.) are explored in order to create medical therapies (called "rejuvenation biotechnologies"); after the rejuvenation biotechnologies are developed, the elderly will become perfectly healthy, which will, as a side effect of staying perfectly healthy, lead to indefinite lifespans (this is called "longevity escape velocity"); Aubrey de Grey from the SENS Research Foundation thinks there's a 50/50 chance of people reaching longevity escape velocity by the year 2036.

If we don't solve population control first, the lack of aging will do more harm than good and I am a SUPPORTER of solving aging saying this.

I recommend reading Lifespan IO's Rejuvenation Roadmap that keeps track of how close different lines of rejuvenation research are from entering into clinical trials.

    Honestly, I don't want to die. There's just so much that could be gone forever in an instant and I'd rather be here to experience it. I mean, assuming there isn't any sort of continuation after death like reincarnation, an after life or something like that. Personally, I think when you're gone that's it, but I could get behind reincarnation (as a human) or maybe even some way to repeat my own life in an endless cycle of birth and death as the same person. I don't think any of it's gonna happen, but still.
    Also, just to clarify, I'm not casting any shade towards anyone's own beliefs. It's perfectly fine if you don't think the same thing as I do, but I do think I have as much of a right to talk about my own thoughts and beliefs as anyone else (of course if it's in good faith and I'm not being rude in any way). Again, not trying to be rude, just writing my thoughts down.
    Edit (not the first edit, but I guess the first "major one"): If I lived forever, I wouldn't want to age at the normal rate. What I'd want is eternal youth instead.

    The concept of “curing aging” brings a few ethical considerations to the table. A few involving fears of overpopulation, concerns of creating another class system, and many spiritual debates surrounding death. I think there is a difference between curing age related illnesses and curing aging entirely. There is no doubt in my mind that in my lifetime, we will have cures to age related diseases like Alzheimer’s Diseases. In the is theoretical world where we have cured aging, there arises a huge issue of resource management. As our population continues to grow on Earth, we use more and more resources. Average life expectancy from 1950’s to now have increased by approximately 30 years. With longer life expectancy, we can assume that the resource usage will increase equally. This is where modern agriculture practices and sustainable resources become more important than ever. Overall, I am excited to be a part of this medical community that is shifting the focus from increasing age to increasing the amount of time that a person is healthy.

    • @williammathews6825
      @williammathews6825 Před 5 lety +22

      Yes, because these videos taught you how to read, write, count, talk, co-ordinate, rationalise, problem-solve, empathise, interact with others etc. And not to mention all the basic or perhaps even advanced general knowledge acquired in a broad range of subjects - if you dared to actually pay attention. Rather than an in-depth exploration of a few interesting topics to engage short attention spans, otherwise summarised as indulgence in brain candy. Don’t get me wrong, these videos are highly informative and thought-provoking on seemingly relevant topics, but don’t disregard your entitlement to an education and the opportunities within just because it abides by a systematically constructed attitude of irrelevance and ineffectiveness in outcomes. Of course no education system is perfect, that’s really a matter of opinion, hence the content of your curriculum won’t always seem relevant to you as an individual, and the efficiency or tone in which it is delivered may be far from the best. Still, it helps to meet the system halfway with an attempt to engage and focus even when it’s boring as fuck, because it’s just not feasible to contrast enjoyment with information, as this compressed video so successfully does. I can continue to drone on but you’ve probably already formed some sort of nit-picking rebuttal or lost interest. Just remember, ignorance is bliss and knowledge is power...

      I share your concern, being 23 myself I feel it's rather likely that my generation is either the last to die of traditional aging or the last one to see many of our loved ones die because of it.

    these videos are making me want to live healthier now that I'm young in order to prolong my life, and be around for all these advancements to be a reality for humans. I also want to help with this process. I'm currently a freshman in college going for a computer science degree and I know getting this degree has potential for so many things in the genetic field. Thank you for posting these as they're really having an impact on my life.

      I am in medschool looking forward to a career in anti-aging research. I think solving aging should be a concern everyone alive today should have and contribute to solving. Why waste time protesting vaccines when we can all work towards making ourselves immortal or at least prolong the one life we get so we can continue taking steps towards this goal?

    Stem cells + NAD+ pills are a good way to combine different therapies. Rejuvinating and regulating cells better, increasing the effectiveness of both therapies.
    Im not sure this could work with the third one, as it might make the stem cells more sensitive.
