WELL AT LEAST THEY PROVEN THAT THEY CAN REVERSE DNA AGING

IN MY SENSING THEY WILL BE TESTING THIS METHOD ON

HUMANS AND IT IS A PRETTY BIG DEAL.

THEY FOCUSED ON AN INTRIGUING COMPOUND WITH ANTIAGING

PROPERTIES CALLED NAD+.

IT'S BEEN KNOWN THAT YOUNGER MICE HAD MORE OF IT THAN

OLDER MICE AND BACK IN 2013, THE RESEARCHERS FOUND THAT WHEN

THEY BOOSTED THE NAD+ LEVELS IN OLDER MICE THEY LOOKED,

BIOLOGICALLY, LIKE MUCH YOUNGER ANIMALS.

BANANAS.

THEY COULDN'T EVEN DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THE

OLDER MICE IN THE YOUNGER MICE AFTER THEY STARTED GIVING

THE OLDER MICE THIS COMPOUND.

SINCLAIR, THAT'S ACTUALLY DOCTOR DAVID SINCLAIR FROM

HARVARD, PUT DROPS OF NAD+ INTO THE WATER OF A GROUP

OF MICE AND WITHIN A COUPLE OF HOURS, THEIR NAD+ LEVELS

STARTED TO RISE THAT WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK, THE SCIENTISTS SAW

OBVIOUS AGE REVERSAL IN MUSCLE AND IMPROVEMENTS IN DNA REPAIR.

THAT'S IT, WEíRE DONE.

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STORY THAT WE HAVE EVER COVERED.

NOTHING ELSE MATTERS AT THE

I AGREE WITH HER.

THIS IS FREAKING PHENOMENAL AND I'M SUPER EXCITED THAT

I WANT TO GET MY HANDS ON NAD+ IMMEDIATELY.

I'M LOOKING AT CENK UYGUR'S NOTES AND THEYíRE

HIGHLIGHTED THROUGH AND THROUGH.

THE ENTIRE ARTICLE IS HIGHLIGHTED THROUGH AND

THROUGH.

YOU DIDN'T HAVE THIS LEVEL OF DETAIL -

I DONíT KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE ALL THE HIGHLIGHTS.

I GOT EXCITED I'M NOT MESSING AROUND WITH THAT.

YOU HAVE TO STOP EATING NOW IF YOU WANT TO REMAIN

HEALTHY REGARDLESS OF HOW YOUNG YOU BUT.

NOT NECESSARILY MAN, AND THEN HAD PLEASANT EVERYTHING IS

GOING TO BE OKAY TO LET ME QUOTE THE GOT THE DOCTOR AGAIN.

WE CAN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TISSUES FROM AN OLD

MOUSE THAT IS TWO YEARS OLD VERSUS A YOUNG MOUTH THAT IS

3 TO 4 MONTHS OLD.

GOOD NIGHT, IRENE.

OR NO GOOD NIGHTS.

WEíRE GOING TO GET YOUNGER AND YOUNGER

AND YOUNGER.

HIT ME WITH NAD+.

THE BEST PART IS YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING INVASIVE.

YOU JUST HAVE TO CONSUME IT.

BUT, IF THEY DID A TEST ON HUMANS WITH WHICH THEY PLAN

ON DOING.

THEY'RE GOING TO DO THE FIRST TEST ON 25 HUMANS TO SEE WHETHER

OR NOT IT HAS THE SAME IMPACT ON THEM LIKE IT HAS ON THE

MICE, BUT THE MICE JUST DRINK THAT SHIT UP.

YOU KNOW?

THEY DIDNíT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING CRAZY.

NO IMPLANTS OR INJECTING ANYTHING.

THEY INGESTED IT.

WE WOULD JUST HAVE TO INGEST IT.

IT IS THE MAGIC PILL.

IT'S ALSO THE COMPOUND FOUND IN MICRO-DOSES AND

BROCCOLI, AVOCADO, CUCUMBERS, THINGS THAT I EAT A LOT

ACTUALLY, BUT WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT'S

IT'S NOT WORKING ON YOU.

WELL, DO YOU HEAR THAT?

HERE'S WHAT I'M GOING TO

SAY ñ IS NO ONE TERRIFIED BY THIS?

THIS IS EVERY PLOT POINT TO EVERY ZOMBIE MOVIE EVER.

THIS IS EXACTLY HOW ZOMBIE MOVIE START.

THIS IS HOW YOU START.

BLACK HELICOPTERS, ZOMBIES, I'M

GLAD THAT THEY'RE DOING THE METRO BIOTECH IS IN BOSTON

SO AT LEAST WILL BE CONTAINED IN THE AREA.

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK IT WILL BE CONTAINED?

REMEMBER DEATH BECOMES HER?

25 PEOPLE ARE GOING TO TURN INTO ZOMBIES.

ARE GOING TO BE MISSING.

BUT LUCKILY BECAUSE IT'S IN THE BOSTON AREA THEY WILL

HANDLE IT QUICKLY BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS BOSTONIANS

ARE VERY AGGRESSIVE ESPECIALLY AROUND FOOTBALL SEASON.

I JUST GENERALIZED.

WEíLL GET BACK TO THE STORY.

THE

WAY WE AGE IS DNA COPIES ITSELF AND SOMETIMES WHEN IT COPIES

ITSELF IT'LL COPY A NOT SO PERFECT VERSION AND THAT IS

WHAT KIND OF LEADS TO AGING.

THAT IS AN OVERLY SIMPLISTIC WAY OF DESCRIBING AND

ESSENTIALLY WHAT HAPPENS IS YOUR BODY NEEDS THESE DNA REPAIR

COMPOUNDS IN ORDER TO REPAIR ITSELF IN A MORE EFFECTIVE

WAY, AND A BETTER WAY, AND A MORE PERFECT WAY I GUESS.

THAT IS WHAT PREVENTS AGING.

THAT IS WHAT THIS IS, THEN ADD PLUS IS A DNA REPAIR COMPOUND.

WITH HUMANS, THE REPAIR COMPOUND IS CONSUMMATE A LITTLE DIFFERENT

THAT I CAN'T PRONOUNCE IT, BUT THE SHORT VERSION IS MNM.

THE NATURALLY OCCURRING COMPOUND FOUND IN SMALL AMOUNTS

IN FOODS LIKE BROCCOLI, CUCUMBER, AVOCADO, EDAMAME.

I JUST WANT

THE RECORD I'M A BIG FAN OF AVOCADO TOAST.

I EAT A LOT OF

IT.

I FEEL VINDICATED ABOUT THAT.

CAN I JUST SAY ONE THING.

CAN Y'ALL CHECK TO SEE IF

Y'ALL CAN CURE THE RATS FROM CANCER?

WHY ARE WE SO

PREOCCUPIED WITH YOUTH IN AMERICA?

YOU CAN WALK AROUND WITH AN OLD SOUL.

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOUR FACE DOESN'T MOVE.

IT'S OKAY

TO GET OLDER.

WHY ARE WE SO PREOCCUPIED WITH NOT GETTING OLDER?

IT'S OKAY.

SO THAT'S A LARRY KING.

IT'S SO MUCH PRESSURE ON WOMEN ALL THE TIME WITH THIS.

STOP IT.

WE CAN BE INVESTING THIS TIME INTO SOMETHING ELSE.

IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT LOOKS, WHICH I WILL ADMIT, THAT'S

THE PART OF IT THAT I CARE ABOUT THE MOST, BUT IT'S NOT JUST

ABOUT THAT BECAUSE IT HELPS REBUILD HEALTHY TISSUE.

ALSO, YOU BROUGHT UP CANCER AND I'M GLAD THAT YOU DID BECAUSE

THIS COULD HAVE HUGE BENEFITS OF FOUR CANCER PATIENTS.

APPARENTLY, SCIENTISTS HAVE HARNESS THIS TO TARGET CANCER

CELLS, CANCER DRUG CALLED PAR PA INHIBITORS WHICH ARE PRESCRIBED

FOR BREAST CANCER INTERFERE WITH PAR P'S ABILITY TO REPAIR DNA IN

THE TUMOR WHICH ULTIMATELY LEADS TO THEIR DEMISE BUT NOW

PEOPLE WHO TAKE THE DRUG RESPOND WELL TO WAY AND MANIPULATE

THAT PLUS LEVELS MIGHT BE ONE WAY TO ENHANCE THE RESPONSE.

IT COULD HELP CANCER PATIENTS AS WELL.

LET ME TRY TO EXPLAIN, AGAIN ALL OF THIS IS A LITTLE

OVERSIMPLISTIC.

NOT PLUS, WHEN THEIR LEVELS ARE HIGHER THAN PAR P1 IS ACTIVATED

AND CAN REPAIR THE DNA.

IN THE CASE OF CANCER, YOU DON'T WANT TO REPAIR THE DNA OF

THE CANCER CELLS SO THEY ACTUALLY LOWER THE PART AND

THAT WINDS UP KILLING THE CANCER.

IN THE CASE OF REVIVING YOUR YOUTH, YOU WANT THE PART TO BE

HIGH ANYONE THAT PLUS LEVELS TO BE, BECAUSE WHEN THAT PLUS

LEVELS ARE HIGH THAN PART ONE IS ACTIVATED AND THEN YOUR DNA

HEELS AND YOU BECOME YOUNGER.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS WE'RE NOT GOING TO DIE.

I

AM NOT PLAYING.

LET ME GET REAL, I KNOW IT SOUNDS A LITTLE LIKE THE ZOMBIE

THING THAT HOSPICE TALKING ABOUT, AND I AM NOT SAYING THEY

IF YOU HAVE IN A CAR ACCIDENT, BEGIN A CAR ACCIDENT YOUR DEAD.

OF COURSE.

THIS DOESN'T MAGICALLY UNDEAD YOU.

YOU ARE NICELY GOING TO HAVE ZOMBIES.

THIS IS HOWEVER A TIME, AND EVERY SINGLE MOVIE

LET ME TALK ABOUT HOW IT'S GOING TO BE REAL THOUGH.

WE ARE ON THE EDGE OF SCIENTIFIC BREAKTHROUGHS THAT ARE

GOING TO CHANGE THE ENTIRE WORLD.

THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IS, I TALK ABOUT ALL THE TIME ON

THE SHOW WHETHER IT'S POLITICS OR ANYTHING ELSE'S PEOPLE

CANNOT SEE OUTSIDE OF THEIR OWN PERSPECTIVE.

IN OUR LIFETIMES, WE'VE EVER SEEN IS THIS.

YOU AGE, YOU GET OLDER, YOU CANíT MANIPULATE YOUR GENES, ETC.

WE ARE ABOUT TO MANIPULATE THE GENES.

WE ARE ABOUT TO MANIPULATE THE DNA.

ITíS GOING TO AFFECT

PEOPLE THAT ARE ALIVE.

ITíS GOING TO AFFECT BABIES EVEN

MORE BECAUSE WE CAN CHANGE THE DNA WITHIN THE WOMB.

THAT IS NOW BORDERLINE EASY.

I'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS FOR LONG TIME AND HE THINK I AM

PLAYING OR EXAGGERATING.

I AM NOT THAT THEY ARE GOING TO BE SUPER BABIES.

THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT GENES THAN US.

THEY COULD BE STRONGER, IT'S POSSIBLE THEY COULD BE SMARTER.

NOW YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT REAL SCIENCE-FICTION MOVIES BUT

ISN'T FICTION ANYMORE.

AND NOW, SCIENCE HAS ADVANCED SO MUCH THAT YOU MIGHT BE ABLE

TO MANIPULATE GENES OF A PERSON WHO IS ALREADY ALIVE TO

CURE THEM OF THINGS INCLUDING GROWING BACK LIMBS.

WE CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT.

ITíS A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE.

WE THINK THAT CAN'T BE TRUE, RIGHT?

SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS STUFF AND YOU THINK KNOW, YOU ARE

EXAGGERATING.

IT CAN'T REALLY MAKE YOU YOUNGER.

IT ALREADY MADE THE MICE YOUNGER.

IT ALREADY HAPPENED AND

THEYíRE TESTING IN HUMANS.

NOW 48 YEARS FROM NOW, NOT 88

YEARS FROM NOW, NOT A BRAVE NEW WORLD, TODAY.

IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IN 18

MONTHS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WE'RE ALL IMMORTAL.

I ALSO WANT TO BRING DOWN YOUR EXPECTATIONS.

OF COURSE THIS IS DANGEROUS AND IMPORTANT STUFF.

THEY'RE GOING TO DO A TON OF TESTING BEFORE THEY ARE

LIKE HEY, EVERYBODY NOT PAUSE FOR EVERYONE.

YES WE ARE OVERSIMPLIFYING TO ALL THE THINGS ARE TRUE.

BUT IF NOT FOR OUR GENERATION, DEFINITELY FOR KIDS

GENERATION IS DEFINITELY GOING TO BE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

ONCE YOU START MESSING AROUND WITH THE GENES, ALL BETS

ARE OFF.

FOR THE GOOD AND PROBABLY ALSO FOR THE BAD.
