RE: Are Mesenchymal Stem Cells the Fountain of Youth?

in #life6 years ago

Are you familiar with the Book of Aquarius? It was written anonymously and deals with the subject of the philosophers stone and how to make it using urine as the base material.
With about $300 worth of lab equipment including a water bath, several 500ml retorts and a few other pieces, one can use modern alchemical processes to separate the life force from the urine and combine it with silver to create the white stone and then with gold to make the red stone...
It sounds far fetched at first but after reading the book several years ago I was intrigued. The author states that the red stone will regenerate cells and completely reverse the aging process.

Hi @mindszai, thank you kindly for the resteem! I did not know that that information came from the ‘Book of Aquarius’. However, I do remember reading the exact same thing that you described. This was many years back. At the time it seemed both complex to pull off, but also intriguing to contemplate. I don't know if I was sold on the process though, it's one of those things that my brain decided to file in the undecided catagory. I believe at the time, I tried to find YouTube videos, and I didn't see that anyone was doing it. Who knows if there is any truth to that sort of thing, but if there is it certainly would be amazing to witness. Have you had any experience, or experiments with the philosophers stone?

@thoughtsintime
I have not, but I have read the book, and if you read the source material from other Alchemists such as Paracelsus, Nicholas Flamel, & Fulcanelli, everything they say seems to line up with the authors hypothesis. I believe it's worth looking into

@mindszai, that must have been the book that I was reading. I don't recall if I read the entire document or not, but ultimately I came to the conclusion that if I wanted to learn if it was true or false, I would have to conduct the experiments for myself. Yet the methods in which to achieve it were very complex, and time consuming.

One would basically have to be a (Al)chemist, or skilled in (Al)chemistry in order to be able to achieve the end result. Also if you screwed up midway, you’d have to start all over again.

In the end if you were successful and created something that looked visually similar to the product as described in the manual, then you’d have to have the faith that whatever madness you created would not kill you if you used it as directed.

I would be careful if you decide to pursue it, because urea, which can be found in urine, has the potential to be poisonous. The book was definitely an interesting read, but ultimately too much of an undertaking for me, and my lack of skills in that area.

Happened to read your comment. Glad you made it. I'll look into it. Blessings.
