A pioneering study published in the Rejuvenation Research Journal today shows that a natural Telomerase Activator... reduces the percentage of short telomeres in immune cells and restores and remodels the aging human immune system to be more like that of a younger individual.
When expressed (turned on), the gene (hTERT) located on Chromosome number 5p15.33 activates the enzyme telomerase. Human cells can keep living and dividing indefinitely when telomerase is continually present; i.e. the cells become immortal.

Seriously, I would seriously think about it. Although, I could never afford it and it will probably only available to the elites.

If TA-65 is a molecule coming from the Astragalus plant and Astragalus extracts are available in any vitamin shop, why not just buy those inexpensive commercial products?
To answer this question, we purchased four commonly available Astragalus extract products and had them tested to verify how much, if any, TA-65 is present. In all four cases, the testing lab could not detect any TA-65. Their assay is accurate to one part per million. This is not surprising because not only is the TA-65 molecule rare, but extraction processes used by Chinese processing companies normally destroy it. T.A. Sciences uses a proprietary production process that took years of research and over a million dollars to develop.

I like this (from TA Sciences FAQ section):

If TA-65 is a proprietary molecule, created in a lab so it could be patented, then why would you expect to find any of it in the Astragalus root? Also, Telomerase is an enzyme and like most other nutrients, will probably be destroyed whenever you cook, dry, age or process it. My advice: eat the root of the organically grown Astragalus plant raw.
