Human umbilical cord plasma injected weekly into elderly subjects for 10 weeks reduced epigenetic age by an ave of 0.82 years & improved kidney function 😎
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.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
The work shows, for the first time, that plasma fraction treatment reduces the epigenetic age of multiple tissues, and not by a little.
