00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:05,460
controversial new treatment that may hold promise but at a price. It does

2
00:00:05,460 --> 00:00:10,080
appear to reverse the aging process. Dr. Jesse Karmazin is talking about

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,120
transfusions with the young blood from teenagers and he says it just may turn

4
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:20,400
back the hands of time. That blood is going to patients over 35 as part of a

5
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,760
clinical trial called Ambrosia where subjects paid $8,000 to get the rich

6
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:30,740
growth factors found in the platelets in blood's plasma. There's pretty much people

7
00:00:30,740 --> 00:00:35,240
from most states, people from overseas, from Europe and Australia. There have not

8
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:39,500
been any published results but the intriguing concept still found its way

9
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:44,720
into pop culture. It's my transfusion associate. Dr. Karmazin says patients who

10
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:50,300
have had it say they feel amazing and he has seen evidence of reversing the aging

11
00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:55,620
process in rats. The brains are younger hearts, their hair, if it was

12
00:00:55,620 --> 00:00:59,640
gray it turns dark again. There has also been encouraging Alzheimer's research

13
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:04,980
using young blood at Stanford. We found that it was safe and feasible to

14
00:01:04,980 --> 00:01:11,100
administer infusions of young plasma weekly. Dr. Sharon Shaw is a researcher who

15
00:01:11,100 --> 00:01:15,600
says they have seen evidence of improvement in functional ability. It's

16
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,620
all very exciting that there can be components in blood that could be

17
00:01:19,620 --> 00:01:25,560
healing. Platelet-rich plasma or PRP treatments using a patient's own blood have

18
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,720
been in demand as trendy vampire facials to fight wrinkles and as joint and

19
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,920
tissue treatments to accelerate healing. A lot of goodies in blood. Dr.

20
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:41,580
Human Khorizani is using those rich PRPs in a study at Mount Sinai to regrow hair.

21
00:01:41,580 --> 00:01:49,080
We can actually use your own blood to stimulate the body. The study is ongoing but

22
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,700
seeing short-term results Dr. Khorizani is optimistic. It looks very positive.

23
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:58,560
Experts agree there is still more research that needs to be done. There's

24
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,700
still a lot of unknowns and a lot of factors that we don't know when we're

25
00:02:02,700 --> 00:02:08,460
actually getting another person's growth factors and nutrient injected in us.

26
00:02:08,460 --> 00:02:14,320
Dr. Karmason says that he plans to open a young blood lab in New York in the coming months.

27
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,580
Dr. Karmason's

28
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:21,240
He is a cristian2019 a healthier way in the coming months.

29
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,760
Dr. Karmason says that there's no difference in the appropriate total will manage

30
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:40,060
the teenage people whilst
