A clinical trial called Ambrosia seeks to discover the long-sought Fountain of Youth and some scientists believe theyve found it in the blood of young people.
Unlike most clinical trials, people actually paid to participate instead of the other way around. Patients over the age of 35 ponied up $8000 to take part in the experiment where they get transfusions of young blood, run by Dr. Jesse Karmazin. People are getting transfusions of young blood to slow aging.
Unsurprisingly, the business experiment is taking place in Monterrey, California, right on the edge of Silicon Valley.
. . . And Ambrosia isnt the only vampiristic game around.
Ambrosia has some competition on the East Coast. A society gala in West Palm Beach, Florida took place last year to scare a bunch of 60-somethings into dropping some cash to take part an another experiment run by Dr. Dipnarine Maharaj. And by some cash, I mean up to $285,000 apiece.

I actually can help with the answer to this. It has become WELL ESTABLISHED science in the last several years that blood transfusions are incredibly dangerous. There are several landmark studies that clearly demonstrate patients who require blood transfusions have a much higher incidence of cancers and death at one and five years when compared to similar patients who do not receive transitions (Kaplan must regression curve). We used to transfuse anyone with a hemoglobin below 10. As an intensivist now I hardly ever transfuse unless there is life threatening hemorrhage or I can demonstrate that a patient needs oxygen carrying capacity (the purpose of blood transfusion) by way of some sophisticated lab technique I wont bore you with. The bottom line. Restrictive blood transfusion techniques clearly are better for the patient in terms of long term survival and this is the standard of care. Blood transfusion for the purposes in this article are just snake oil salesmanship and clearly no reputable science would have someone pay them to assist in research.
Seeing the huge number of gullible and stupid people in the USA, this may become a hashtag fad.
Some research indicates that Alzheimer’s can be caused by plaques in the brain; possibly young blood can dissolve such plaques . . . this is just a thought. I do not have knowledge here.
What I do remember reading years ago, was a book by Dr. Abram Hoffer, who apparently reversed his own mother’s Alzheimer’s with Niacin, vitamin B3. Niacin is a vasodialator - it enlarges constricted capillaries, so more blood can get through. It has been researched and used since the 1950s for heart assistance. An interesting side effect is enhanced orgasm, due to increased histamine production.
“the blood of young people”
If true, then young people would never get old.

I have come to believe that parasites in the blood constitute a significant danger to health. I will check again for the parasite - cancer connections later. Have a pleasant day and weekend. Thank you, Norski
Right out of Kolchak.
I saw her standing on the corner
A yellow ribbon in her hair
I couldn’t keep myself from callin’
Look a there, look a there
Look a there, look a there
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can’t get you out of my mind
I took one look and I fractured
I tried to walk and I was lame
I couldn’t keep myself from shoutin’
What’s your name? What’s your name?
What’s your name? What’s your name?
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can’t get you out of my mind
What crazy stuff she looked so tough
I had to follow her all the way home
Then things went bad, I met her dad he said? You better leave my daughter alone?
I couldn’t sleep that night for crying
I saw the rising of the sun
And all night long my heart was sighin’
‘Cause she’s the one, she’s the one
She’s the one, she’s the one
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can’t get you out of my mind
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can’t get you out of my mind
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can’t get you out of my mind, yeah

I haven’t seen any research indicating that. I am an RN and my wife has Alzheimer’s and I stay as current as possible about clinical trials and haven’t heard of any on that. She was tested and has a genetic marker that makes her likely to develop plaques. I’m not aware of anything in a blood transfusion that would stop the build up of plaques.
If you’re male, bio-identical Testosterone (not synthetic steroids) is long proven to keep men healthy, energetic, build muscle mass, reduce fat, and increase libido well into the 70’s. Just need to do a yearly blood sample of prostrate enzymes.
That's exactly how nitric oxide works with the various erection dis-function meds. BTW, B-12 injections are amazing for energy. However, they last only a day or two.
Well right. As in an operation where much blood is needed one would use a transfusion from multiple donors.
Actually I worked in a biologics facility in which we pooled human plasma and made various serums. Ie Anti Hemophilic factor, Human Albumin, and IVIG and more. I would think a thousand or more donors like my company pooled into a single tank would NOT be the way to go. To much chance of disease transfer. I would suspect just the number needed for one person to receive in a single transfusion.
I would imagine 20 year old college students who were tested and found disease free wouldnt mind getting a grand or so for a unit of blood.
You have to match at least half (haploidentical) or for cord blood,6/10; otherwise 8/10 markers on the human lymphocyte antigen, to prevent serious problems.
Think of the donated blood trying to reject the recipient, or vice versa.
