[ExI] for longer life

[Sherry Knepper]

Having a relationship fuels me.  I have lifelong depression.  Having my permanent partner would be even better.  Married live longer, especially men they say, but many women worldwide are poor without men.   But i don't want to give the impression this isn't a travesty.  Women need jobs even more than men do.  Men if lack of income  goes to the worst extreme  they can much more easily live off the land than women can.

But moving from the "natural" realm to the "unnatural" or artificial, 
isn't there a market in Colombia for anti-age treatments of US citizens 
using science and procedures which have not received FDA approval?

If so, have there been any "wins" (scientifically confirmed I mean) in any 
of these medical centers or is it still a matter of faith and waiting and 
seeing if the millionaires and billionaires who do go to these clinics 
achieve more respectable age levels than average?

On a personal level, I have looked into stemcell treatments and platelet 
rich plasma therapy and based in what I can see, there seem to be good 
scientific evidence in favour of these treatments, but, in europe there 
are very few clinics. I've found practices in turkey, cyprus (turkish 
part), ukraine and a few other countries, so I wonder if the reason for it 
is the same reason that Colombia (if I am right) has companies offering 
cutting edge treatments. Also, I have not looked into these treatments for 
anti-aging but for other things, but I guess they could be used to 
rejuvenate age related problems as well.

Best regards,
Daniel
