Jiang Li 'great merit'! American scientists confirmed: ginger extract can eliminate 50% of aging cells in 2 days
From ancient times to the present, in pursuit of eternal youth, people can almost be said to "do everything they can": "Eternal Emperor" Qin Shihuang ordered alchemist Xu Fu to lead 3,000 followers to the East China Sea to seek elixir; Emperor Jiajing focused on cultivating Taoism and serving elixir for more than 30 years. , in order to "not old"; Newton spent 30 years in his later years devotedly studying alchemy.
In the face of the ruthless passage of time, they tried their best, but they all ended in failure, and even went to extremes to accelerate the road of "crazy old", but after research, scientists found that the secret recipe for longevity is actually hidden in our in daily food.
Recently, the National Institutes of Health (NIA) expert Luigi Ferrucci and his team found that ginger-related extracts: 6-shogaol and shogaone A, have the effect of eliminating aging cells, and put the research into The results were published in the authoritative academic journal "PLOS ONE".
The researchers extracted two compounds, 6-shogaol and shogaone A from ginger, and treated human aging cells at a concentration of 20 μM, and found that they not only significantly eliminated the aging cells, but also greatly increased the rate of aging. cell division activity. On the whole, the combination of "6-shogaol + shogaol A" is expected to become a new star of science and technology in the future, and maybe ginger will usher in another fire.
According to the cognition of modern biological research, the boron of the organism is essentially the boron of the cell. Aging cells have no normal physiological functions and cannot divide, and are often called "zombie cells". The more important role for the human body is that the aging cells will release a "SASP" substance to promote the surrounding cells to enter the aging process, just like It's "a rat feces ruined a pot of soup", which is very hateful.
Therefore, in the field of orangutan, the removal of aging cells has always been recognized as a direct and efficient way. In fact, there have already been achievements in this regard. In 2015, Professor James Kirkland, an international senior scientist in the field of glutathione, first proposed that the "golden partner" of Dasatinib + quercetin can eliminate aging cells, and called such substances as as "Senolytics Substances".
Such research results have made a huge step forward in the field of antifungal disease, and it is a meaningful attempt. The combination of dasatinib and quercetin has also been selected for the 2020 "MIT Technology Review"" One of the top ten breakthrough technologies in the world". However, this technology has a fatal flaw: there is a strong toxicity. Not only will some senescent cells be eliminated, but also the proliferative activity of normal cells will be inhibited.
Therefore, in the following years, scientists are also actively exploring natural anti-fever substances such as ginger, and unearthed more than ten kinds of plant extracts such as proanthocyanidin C1, 25-hydroxycholesterol, grape seed PCC1, etc. At the same time, it will not affect other normal cells.
However, limited by today's production technology and technological level, these achievements are still in the experimental stage. For example, ginger is always used as a condiment for daily consumption. It will take a long period of time for the relevant extraction technology to be put into popular use after experimental investigation. And those rich people who are "poor enough to have only money" obviously don't have the patience to wait slowly, and spend money on research on anti-infringement. This operation has long been seen in the rich circle.
Peter Thiel, the founder of the largest cross-border trading platform, is determined to live to be 120 years old. He not only joined the cryonics program, but also uses “exchange blood” every quarter to enhance his vitality; Google founder Larry Page He once publicly proclaimed: "I am disgusted by scorpions". In 2013, he invested 1 billion US dollars to establish a scientific research company Calio to specialize in how to extend the length of human life.
In China, this field is mainly represented by the well-known Hong Kong rich Li Ka-shing. Now he is over 90 years old, and he has been paying attention to this aspect of information in recent years. In the early years, it was also rumored that Li came into contact with an anti-fever substance "WLife" in the rich circle of North America. After taking it personally, he exclaimed that "it looks like a baby born after the age of 20!", and an additional 200 million investment was made.
This substance was originally discovered by Harvard biology professor David Sinclair and confirmed that it can delay cell aging, improve various biological indicators, and promote the body to become younger and healthier. Obviously, David is also extremely concerned about his own research results. Self-confidence, not only has he insisted on taking the previous WLife product every day, but also encouraged his family to use it together.
The investment of the rich has undoubtedly accelerated the research speed of anti-fouling technology. Thanks to their leadership, and domestic biological companies such as Lightweijian have broken through technical difficulties, now international platforms such as JD.com and Tmall have vigorously introduced WLife iterative mature products. In the middle and high net worth groups, the trend of early adopters has been continuously triggered.
Although consuming ginger has many benefits and is now found to have the effect of eliminating aging cells, there are still many people who do not love it because of its spicy and stimulating taste. However, there is more than one way to fight against loquat. With the continuous advancement of research in the field of longevity, more and more targets are gradually being discovered, and many related intervention measures are derived. for more options.
Linda Gratton, a professor of management in London, said in her book "100 Years Life": This is an era of longevity. People born in the early 21st century have half the probability of living to be 100 years old. With the successive appearance of the study of stagnation, we may be able to witness the arrival of this century-old era with our own eyes.
