Have you?

I haven't, and I'm pretty sure I would have if it had been reported on the internet . . .

Well done for finding that. It could be what the OP is referring to.

Off hand it looks like pseudoscience though. Maybe I'm wrong, I'll look into it further tomorrow

I understand the term 'DNA transplant' to mean splicing DNA into the genome, not consuming it like a supplement. After all, every piece of animal or vegetable food we eat is full of DNA, but we don't think of it as a transplant :)

Pietba, I think I read about this somewhere before, it does sound REALLY interesting and gives us all hope. You do have to feel that stem cells/regeneration or something like that gives us the best hope for a true 'cure'

Interesting thread

Thanks all

Don't know what to answer! I've heard scientific programmes, especially "Life Scientific" on Radio 4. Many promising things. Will they ever trickle to our levelor will it be such an astronomical price?

Not what you're looking for?
