*24 Jan 2015* <div class="posthaven-post-body"> Scientists have found a compound that creates new Mitochondria structures inside aging cells. This can lead to the reversal of cellular aging, the main reason why you die :) As we age, our tissues' mitochondria start to get damaged (you can think of it as the tail of a long chord, that gets ripped progressively as you drag it through the floor). A 90 year old man's muscle tissue will have around 95% damaged mitochondria, as opposed to no damaged at all in a little kid. If we can stop this process, we might live forever :) More technical juice in the original article. </div> [[tags/findings|findings]] [[tags/good_news|good_news]] [[tags/life|life]] [[tags/science|science]]
