Organ regeneration and 3D printing of body parts will be available within 15 years

Sergey Yang – an entrepreneur and visionary in the field of longevity – believes that living to 200 is no longer science fiction. In an interview with bTV, he shared that the path to a long and healthy life begins with three main things: sleep, proper nutrition and physical activity. According to research, in just eight weeks, the right changes in these areas can reduce biological age by several years – 3.2 for men and 4.6 for women. Yang claims that at 53 years old according to the passport, his blood parameters are like those of a 39-year-old.

He practices intermittent fasting for 36 hours every week – from Monday evening to Wednesday morning. During the fast, he consumes only water, herbal tea and a little coffee. According to him, scientists agree that restricting calories by 15-25% extends life by several healthy years.

Yang warns of so-called “stupid causes of death” – such as smoking, not wearing a seat belt or riding a motorbike, which significantly increase the risk of death. As a father of four children, he has refused to even climb Everest because of the risk of death.

“Things that are still in development, but will be available to us in the next 5-10-15 years. The first is genetic engineering and gene therapy. The second is regeneration or repair of organs. Think of the body as an old car – we will be able to extend the life by replacing individual parts. Similar things will happen in the near future, you will be able to print organs with 3D printers,” he claims.

Sergey Yang believes that with the development of technology, people will be able to live up to 150 years in their biological form, and after that – as augmented (improved) beings. His personal goal is to add at least 5 to 20 healthy and happy years to the life of each person.
