If this actually happens, this would be a tremendous boost for Life Extension:
As Dr. Gupta states in his book, “All over the world and right in your backyard, there are people who are steadily pushing back the frontier of aging. They are not content to simply wither away, becoming frail and feeling worthless. Instead, they are achieving a sort of practical immortality—living as long as they want to live and dying only when they are through living… Immortality is on the horizon and it is within our reach for the first time.”
The above quote is taken from an interview with Life Extension Magazine’s August 2007 exclusive interview with this as the cover story – Dr. Sanjay Gupta’s Search for Biological Immortality.
More Life Extension information available from Dr. Sanjay Gupta can be found on CNN.com’s Special Coverage on his book – Chasing Life.
Should his confirmation to U.S. Surgeon come to fruition, one could only hope that the good Doctor will be able to assert his influence on the American Medical Community concerning Life Extension.
