you can take a skin cell that has an epigenetic age of 40 and do this, it takes, you know, a few weeks to do, and basically get back to an epigenetic age of zero in those cells.

The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
And the interesting thing and why aging researchers got really invested in this science is that, not only are you making it embryonic-like in terms of its stem-cell properties, but the epigenetic clocks seem to be almost completely reversed.
