New Blood Test Can Predict If You Might Die in the Next Ten Years

Well, here’s one heck of a spoiler alert . . .

If you had access to an accurate prediction of when your life might come to an end, would you want to know?

There are scientists in Germany who created a new blood test that can supposedly predict if someone may die in the next 10 years . . . with 80% accuracy.

The test analyzes a person’s blood and looks for risk signs to predict if the person is going to die in the next five to 10 years.

The scientists aren’t stopping there, though. “We see this as a foundation, we do not see this as an endpoint,” shares one of the scientist.

This means that one day . . . likely sooner than we think . . . there could be a highly accurate test that distinctively tells us, from a health standpoint, when we might die (even if it’s decades away).
