Elite Vampirism: Young-Blood Transfusions to Extend Life

Vampires might be fictional, but vampirism is something that's been done for a long time. Vampirism is consuming the blood of others to try to obtain health benefits like longevity. And thanks to medicinal technology like needles and transfusion, it can mean injecting blood into one's body to get rejuvenating benefits. Like the fictional stories of how vampires stay young by drinking the blood life-force of others, the elite are trying to do the same by using the blood of younger people in order to stay younger themselves.

Exploiting the poor has long been done by the rich so that they can stay rich, new lows are being reached by those seeking to desperately turn back the hands of time. The poor and innocent continue be to exploited through the fashionable trend of sucking the youth and beauty from the blood of young children. They aren't dying of anything, they re just getting old, but their wealthy. These modern vampires aren't drinking blood, but they are paying $8,000 for 1.5 L (35 oz.) of blood through transfusions.

This all started through scientific experiments in parabiosis, which is linking the circulatory systems of two animals together. It's pretty barbaric. The initial method was two sew the circulatory systems of animals together, like rats for example. Modern science has improved the method to make it less invasive, by either using transfusions or isolating the specific proteins and plasma from young blood and injecting it into older patients so that they can be rejuvenated with the benefits of younger blood.

Experiments with mice showed that simply injecting plasma from young mice and old mice can boost learning and memory by rejuvenating the brains neurons, making them smarter and healthier. Growth differential factor 11 (GDF11) regulates stem cell activity and is abundant in young mice but the levels drop off as animals age. Injecting GDF11 produced the thickening of the heart in all the mice and help them recover muscles and strength.

A company in California called Ambrosia has been offering human plasma transfusions from young donors at the cost of $8,000 for 1.5 liters, given over a two day period. Blood plasma is a yellowish liquid component of blood that holds blood cells and suspension. It contains dissolved proteins (6–8%) (i.e.—serum albumins, globulins, and fibrinogen), glucose, clotting factors, electrolytes, hormones, carbon dioxide and serves as a protein reserve and plays a vital role in keeping electrolytes in balance, protecting the body from infection and other blood disorders.

Ambrosia is owned by 33-year-old Jess Karmazin med school graduate who doesn't have a license to practice medicine. But he's overseen by David Wright, a doctor who was disciplined in 2015 by the California Medical Board. They operate under a "clinical trial" to bypass FDA approval normally required to sell transfusions.

Ambrosia has treated 600 clients so far, at an average age of 60 years old. Most of the clients are men. A vampiric rival company named Young Blood Institute is also offering "clinical trials" of young blood transfusions for $285,000 per person.

There is no scientific controlled, randomized or blind study about the effects on humans, but Karmazin claims his patients have only positive results, such as improving sleep, declines in levels of proteins involved in cancer and Alzheimer's disease by 20%. Yet, the mice studies show dangerous side effects.

In the experiments od young and old mice, some mice died quickly for reasons unknown to the scientists. Specifically 11 out of the 69 in one experiment died. It could be some form of rejection. Two other studies in 2017 found that blood transfusions from younger donors to older people led to outcomes that were either no different or worse than blood received from older donors.

Where are they getting all this young blood from? Desperate poor children who are looking for a quick buck? Is this ethical?

Thank you for your time and attention. Peace.
