Anti-Aging Drug Discovered

A magic pill that reverses aging? Hooooooax. No such thing, kids. It may be the American dream, but there is no such thing as a magic pill that cures everything.

Cells that don't die at their appointed time are called cancer. Even if this drug actually does what it claims to do, extending the life of all cells in the body would be catastrophic. Many of your cells are supposed to die and be replenished - skin, for example. There are a multitude of simultaneous factors that all contribute to the syndrome known as being old, and simply taking a magic pill that vaguely revitalizes cells is not going to reverse it.

We'll see just how well human trials really go.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
