" A Russian scientist says he has beaten the problem of aging and in just a few years the medicine that stops it will go on sale.
Professor Vladimir Skulachev says he managed to find an anti-oxidant that stops the gradual deterioration of health caused by age.
It looks complicated and it certainly is. For Vladimir Skulachev it is almost a life's work. Two more years of testing and the doctor thinks he will have finally cracked the enigma of aging.
Apparently it's all about how oxygen reacts in the body.
“99% of the time oxygen turns into harmless water, but there's that one percent that turns into a super-oxide that later turns into very poisonous elements,” Vladimir Skulachev, Professor of Bioenergetics, reveals. “So the task was to find an anti-oxidant that stops that process.”
And hence, according to the professor, it would also stop people from getting old.
He has been working to prefect his treatment for more than 40 years. The difficult part of the process has been to try and prevent any side-effects, he notes.
Colleagues around the world think Dr Skulachev is on to something.
Nobel Prize winner Dr. Gunter Blobel, M.D., Ph.D. at Rockefeller University, believes Skulachev’s theories look very realistic.
“It has been shown that oxidative damage is huge. But we do not have an anti-oxidant of the type that Skulachev has developed. He coined the term bioenergetics. He is clearly the world’s best bio-chemist and bio-energetic scientist,” Blobel stated.
The compound has already undergone animal testing and the results appear promising. "

It would certainly change the world ! It would be interesting to speculate if the drug is going to be available to everybody who can afford it !
