Frozen live 40% longer? Chinese Academy of Sciences research confirms: low body temperature will activate longevity mechanism

As early as 2017, Hawking made a bold prediction based on the existing technology: "By 2045, human beings will never die." Now there are only 23 years left before the realization of Hawking's prediction, which not only makes people ask, does Hawking's so-called longevity of human beings really exist?

The American rich circle represented by Peter Thiel believes that there is a young password hidden in the blood of young people, and they maintain their youth through a blood exchange every March; while the richest man Musk believes that it can only be achieved by permanently storing consciousness on the computer. The so-called immortality; compared to these unrestrained ideas, scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have confirmed that "frozen" can live 40% longer.

The Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and scientists from the University of Aberdeen and Wenzhou University in the United Kingdom, have successfully achieved a 40% increase in life expectancy, and the key is to control and reduce body temperature. This research achievement has been included in the world's top scientific journal "Nature".

In this experiment, the scientists used mice as experimental subjects. Previous studies have confirmed that the genetic similarity between mice and humans is as high as 90%. Therefore, from this perspective, the results of this experiment have a high reference significance for the human body to a certain extent.

After the researchers randomly divided the mice into groups, one group of mice was placed in a low temperature environment of 21°C, while the other group of mice was exposed to a high temperature environment of 32°C. The rest of the experimental conditions were the same. In order to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results, the experimental process runs through the rat's life.

The end result exceeded expectations. The researchers found that the body temperature of mice exposed to a 32-degree environment was 0.5 degrees higher than that of another group of mice exposed to low temperatures, while their average lifespan was shortened by an average of 30%. And other physiological indicators also degrade faster. This means that hypothermia helps prolong the life cycle to a certain extent.

At the same time, the scientific research community has also found that the reason why low temperature can live long life may be that cell division slows down under low temperature conditions, and cell loss is reduced, thereby prolonging the life cycle. So on this basis, can we solve the problem of aging once and for all?

The Harvard Biogenetics Laboratory seems to have found the answer. Professor Sinclair led his research team to find a new way to start with mitochondria, the "energy factory" of cells, and activate mitochondria through longevity molecules (the core substance of "Pavilo pro"), so that they can give Cells provide enough energy to help cells stay young almost once and for all.

According to the data of the first popular science team in China, Time School, in recent years, universities in the world, including the University of Washington in the United States, the University of Tokyo in Japan, and Tsinghua University and Peking University in China, have also conducted in-depth research on longevity substances such as "Paiweiluo Pro". Hundreds of scientific research results have further confirmed that it has a positive effect on delaying aging indicators such as nerves, bones, and muscles, and can delay the aging of mammals or human bodies.

It is worth noting that the finished product of this kind of longevity substance, "Paiweiluo pro" mitochondrial activator, although a single bottle is up to 4 digits, it is thought that one bottle will eat a month's salary of ordinary people, but it is still shipped in large quantities. A search on the Jingdong platform found that as of now, it has publicly shown that it has accumulated more than 20,000 comments, and most people said that they are "willing to pay for the youth".

To live longer is the eternal pursuit of human beings. At present, the global aging is accelerating, and aging is like a rising tide of sea water gradually invading the world. Sinclair, a tenured professor at Harvard Medical School, believes that "meekly accepting the facts of ill health and aging is as barbaric as it was before people thought it was normal for women to tragically die in childbirth."

Data show that in the past 10 years, human knowledge has increased at a rate of almost doubling every three years, and the total amount of knowledge has grown rapidly in an explosive manner. Perhaps in the future aging will no longer be a mysterious and irreversible thing, it will no longer be seen as a natural process, but as a disease to be treated, or improved and reversed.

When technology develops to a high enough level, the boundaries between life and death become blurred, and perhaps our human lifespan may completely break through the 120-year-old lifespan ceiling. The dream of immortality that Qin Shihuang pursued throughout his life was not really just a dream.
