Coming soon, an anti-ageing injection

A month after pointed two proteins linked to youth, a research team claims that an injection to erase the health problems associated with ageing is near at hand.

This magic injection manipulates a body’s mitochondria, sausage-shaped ‘powerhouses’ in every cell of the body except red blood cells. They turn the food we eat into energy that can be used by the heart, brain, muscles and other parts of the body. According to researcers their deterioration is the main cause of ageing.

According to a report in New Scientist magazine,
correcting genetic mutations in mitochondria can also help fight illnesses such as diabetes, Parkinson’s, stroke, Alzheimer’s, heart disease and cancer.
