Diaper gel pills for longevity
Activatated carbon is published as making rats live more than 40% longer. Superexpanding diaper gel might work similarly. It could also reduce cholesterol like fiber | |
A nitrogen version of activated carbon makes rats live more than 40% longer. Is it possible to get the same benefit with less material bulk? Diaper absorbancy gel gathers more than 1000 times its mass in water. An enterosobent that expands could be a new longevity drug.
Develop a diaper absorbency
gel with high surface area so it can function as a longevity enterosorbent. Perhaps bushier branched polymers (possibly with a nitrogen on them) would do it. A little like nylon gel.
Then, test it on rats for longevity effect. If it works it could be a 1 gram pill longevity "drug"

So I take a pill, it then sucks all of the water out of
my stomach? No thanks... |
|
|
You have to wonder *how* sucking fluid out of a rat's digestive
tract extends its life and improves its health. |
|
|
To get the ball rolling, I offer this hypothesis: |
|
|
Lab rats tend to die of boredom and insufficient exercise.
Removing fluid (in moderation) from their insides is more like an
attack than a therapy, but because it's a low-level attack it
stimulates the little ratty metabolism to get its act together
without doing any permanent harm, and thereby makes the rat
stronger in a Nietzschean sort of way. |
|
|
In those humans not yet living under controlled lab conditions,
there might be better alternatives to this therapy, involving
purposeful activity. |
|
|
Interesting. Two caveats though: |
|
|
(a) The same research group seems to have published
essentially the same paper twice, a few years apart; that
tells me that they didn't make much progress. |
|
|
(b) They seem to be the only group who have worked on
this. |
|
|
The whole thing looks a bit hokey to me, but interesting
nevertheless. |
|
|
Most ambulances carry this and in much larger
quantity (imagine drinking a charcoal slushy, do it).
Used on patients that may have ingested a
poisonous/toxic liquid. It's a much safer option and
preferred method, for all parties involved, than
having the person vomit. |
