The Longevity Revolution

Eventually through new breakthroughs in science we could be able to slow and reverse the aging process. We will be able to cure all diseases by repairing the damage. April also has a small part in this video, with Kevin Perrott, and a a few scientists involved in anti aging research. I thought this was a particularly good documentary.

One of the amazing parts of this story is when the surgeon got the whole jaw bone to totally regenerate using a protein to stimulate growth. They showed on the X rays the result, and it was remarkable. This will be common practice soon, by 2015-2020 stem cells will probably be a very effective treatment for a whole host of diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, osteoarthritis, limb amputations, spinal problems, neurological disorders and so on. No longer will be just treat symptoms of disease, but will effectively be curing disease.
