The Fountain of Youth may have been discovered…in a pill form!

Researchers at Harvard claim they’ve discovered a “Fountain of Youth” pill that could reverse aging. Harvard researcher David Sinclair shared the findings in July’s medical journal “Aging.” “We’ve previously shown age reversal is possible using gene therapy to turn on embryonic genes,” he shared. “Now we show it’s possible with chemical cocktails, a step towards affordable whole-body rejuvenation.”

Three years of research, including experiments on mice and monkeys, found they successfully identified six chemical cocktails that can “reverse” visual signs of aging and extend lifespan in less than a week, according to Sinclair. Want in on this? They’re now preparing for human clinical trials!
