This summer we'll find out the results of the Galleri test trials in the UK. Another game changer potentially.

Would've been useful before I had my foot cut off. 🤷‍♂️

Wow yes. So many older and retired workers from the skilled trades could benefit from this.

It would also be a huge boon for recruitment as I imagine young people considering the career may be discouraged by the physical demands of the job and their potential lasting effects.

Spoiler alert: you can't afford it.

Thank you for doing useful work

Perfect for making you work the remainder of your life. No more arthritis? Great, now work until death to pay for it.

Martial arts should probably be approached from the front, but you do you, boo.

So are non Americans

"I just popped a kneecap, it shot clean off and broke a mirror. Pill me babay!"

Most definitely. I'm almost in that demographic myself and several of the slightly older, nerdy lifters at my gym talk about BPC-157 as something they would consider using.

If this gets proven to work in vivo in humans I'm certain we'll see the same no matter side effects.

In that only the upper wealthy class will be able to afford it?

They'll deserve it, the shit we've put them through.

I feel there's very little the rest of the world should emulate of modern Russia, but this is one example that I would like to see mimicry of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monument_to_the_laboratory_mouse

reproductive urge, you mean.

Plenty of women with the equipment and no intention of using it.

Well, this shows promising results in phase 1.

Most likely 5 years if nothing goes wrong.

The timeline is going to be wildly different depending on the side effects, and how long people are expected to have to take the drug.

It's exciting news. Odds are we won't see anything else about it soon, and it's likely they'll need to adjust something to make it work correctly, but this is the nature of research. Especially when it comes to medicine.

There been stuck in research land for years on end and some are just now in human testing. WHO classifies aging as a disease so would be considered a world wide treatment, however the question is how much is it and how much are your willing to pay?

I get it, but we actually have made substantial progress over the last several decades in numerous medical fields. Look at the long term improvement in cancer outcomes. Every time a new treatment comes out, there are always people saying that only the rich will ever be able to afford it. And yet, in the long term, they're wrong every time.

That puts a damper but it's still an exciting prospect

What's funny is their system gets them money to fund top research but it's not going to serve most of their population, and about half of its voters are happy with it.

That's not accurate. Only poor Americans aren't allowed proper Healthcare. Rich Americans, and a lot of foreign investors, will benefit from this research.

Yeah it's worse than battery tech breakthroughs 😓
