Almost unnoticed by the public, an incredible scientific revolution is in the making.
There is a vast amount of unused medical knowledge on prevention, health monitoring, and integrative therapeutic approaches that, if used, would present an exciting opportunity to significantly improve our health, reverse chronic disease, and extend our healthy lifespan.
Moreover, the world has started the transition from an era in which we were utterly helpless about our aging process to one in which aging is under full medical control, and age-related diseases are a thing of the past.
We are not there yet, but the theoretical groundwork has been laid and scientists have successfully started working on the fundamentals.
The first human rejuvenation therapies like clearance of senescent cells, removal of arterial plaque, or breaking of cross-links are under development. These remarkable technologies aim at slowing or partially reversing aspects of the aging process. Some of them are even available today.
In the future, a multitude of molecular repair technologies, which are currently on the drawing board or under development, will allow us to progressively undo the damage caused by aging. They will enable us to slow down, halt, or even completely reverse the aging process and counter the root causes of age-related diseases.
