      Well, this same drug (working name MF-300) is a PDGH-15 inhibitor and has already been through phase 1 human trials for a separate condition.

      Because PDGH-15 also causes age related muscle weakness.

      Now, PDGH-15 also plays a role in cancer prevention, and there may be a few other less obvious functions.

      I don’t know if the results of the phase 1 trials have been published yet, but it’s been a while since I checked.

      I’ve been hearing about MF-300 for a little under a year, and with these same claims about restoring cartilage.

      If you think anyone but the elite will be able to afford or procure these procedures, you’re incredibly optimistic.

      As soon as it gets approved, some shitty corporation will purchase the patent and lock it behind a paywall for 80+ year old geriatrics with zero fucks given towards people who actually deserve or need it.

        This drug can be delivered via pill. It has a range of effects in reversing age related damage.

        I’m not sure if it will be kept to the rich, or given out widely to justify the removal of social security, or at least jacking up the retirement age.

          If the worker-slaves live longer, you don’t have to indoctrinate & capture new ones quite as often!

          Bremonia will have the procedures, for free. The name can be changed, I don’t care. I just need help overthrowing a few corrupt governments and I’m out.
