Vampires knew it all along, but now scientists have discovered that young blood can keep an old brain sharp. Plasma or blood from a young mouse — or even a single protein from plasma — rejuvenates sluggish bodies and minds in a host of ways, three new studies find.

Throughout the ages, people have searched far and wide for an elixir that replenishes the body. “Maybe they were just looking too far,” says Tony Wyss-Coray of Stanford University Medical School, coauthor of a May 4 study in Nature Medicine.

Young blood recharges old neurons, improving mice’s ability to learn and remember things, Wyss-Coray and colleagues found. Two other papers, appearing May 4 in Science, identified a particular ingredient in young blood that improves both brain and muscles.




Gee! I need some of this stuff now!!!

Vampires are picky and wise creature. They dont want the blood of those old people with blood diseases. They aim to live a long life not to shorten their lives with those contaminated blood.
