"Eternal youth" can be yours, but for a hefty price!

[H.Wolowitz]

A new service could offer “eternal youth” for certain very wealthy customers - enabling them to store stem cells and “repair” body parts as they fail.


For £38,000, Sceil will store stem cells for you - hoping that these frozen, healthy cells will be able to “repair” damage such as injuries and illnesses in the future.


“This is expensive, so only reserved for a certain class of people who can afford it. Twenty years ago only rich people had cell phones. Now everybody has them.”


The company’s slogan is, “Don’t delay, back yourself up today.”


The process involves taking a small sample of skin cells under local anaesthetic. The biotech firm Sceil - part of Cellectis - then alters these into “pluripotent” IPS stem cells, and freezes them.


The cells are stored at -180 degrees centigrade and do not age - they will remain fit and well throughout your life, Sceil claims, ready to deal with illnesses, or even provide “spare parts.”


Sceil says, “Your iPS cells are stored for your lifetime until you have a need in the future for treatment with the latest regenerative medicine techniques. This technology may have the potential to reverse, or even cure, disease and repair damaged tissues.”
