As the National Post reports in “No more Alzheimer’s? World’s first anti-aging drug could let you live more than 120 years in good health,” the FDA has approved human testing on a drug that might do just that.
The drug is already being used to treat diabetes and scientists have been able to use it to prolong the life of other animals. Anecdotal evidence exists that the drug has worked to prolong the lives of diabetes patients so there is good reason to believe it will work in testing.
Retirement and estate plans will certainly need to be modified if the testing of the anti-aging process goes well.
