Only in mice at the moment, but they say it has already been shown to work on human cells in a lab. It makes you live longer, makes you healthier, and it even makes you look younger. This should be the biggest story everywhere.
Research conducted by Harvard University took old mice and found a way to half their ages.
"If you're 40, a gene therapy reverts you back to being 20 - your muscles, your eyes, you skin."
Looking younger
Harvard's Professor David Sinclair says he made the mice 57% younger.
"Their skin became like a young mouse's skin and their muscles were stronger", Prof O'Neill explained. -

Living a lot longer only benefits rich people. Everyone else would have to work all those extra years when they could've just died. Although some rich people would probably get sick of living too, if that many years were added to the average lifespan.
