Question by rtlange268: Anti-aging pill with resveratrol?
I’ve been looking around about a chemical called resveratrol. Its a chemical in red wine thats been proven to extend the life of animals and the company Sirtris is working on using the chemical to actually extend human life. Could this really be done? And what are your thoughts on it.
I personally think it would be pretty cool if they could extend life from about 100 years to maybe 150 or 200 or maybe even a little more, just as long as the person would feel good and not just be an old person in pain and who can’t die

well this would be all fine and dandy, except you life isn’t really extended in a positive way. for example, you will still stop being able to reproduce at the same age, and your youth wouldnt be extended… would wants to be all wrinkly and old for 50 – 100 extra years? your quality of life would be terrible.
it would be lovely to be able to have youth for longer, be able to reprodice till an older age, so you can get a career established and accomplish more before having children and wahtenot, but it’s just not possible.
also, the world would be over populated. we die for a reason
damn, now i’m all depressed about getting old and dieing. thanks.
