Results from a small trial show promise in improving human's immunological system, crucial to fighting diseases prevalent in aging.

Human body is a complex maze of interdependent systems, and of the more critical ones is the immunological system. It’s critical in fighting bacterial and viral infections that we come in contact with on a daily basis.

But as we age its function starts to deteriorate, its function becoming less effective. In fact it’s shown that after 12 years of age thymus gland starts to wither away.  It's what scientists now believe lies at the heart why older people are substantially more susceptible to the novel SARS-CoV-2 virus. 

At the center of our immunological response lies the thymus organ (not to be confused with thyroid). Within the thymus, T cells mature (it's why they are called T cells, btw, because of Thymus). T cells are critical to the adaptive immune system, where the body adapts specifically to novel foreign invaders, which is crucial for viral infections that have never been seen before (SARS-CoV-2 virus).

Dr. Greg Fahy recently completed (2019) the first successful study (TRIIM) in which he regrew the thymus gland in the human body which then was shown to reverse human immunodeficiency.

He was able to observe improvement in lymphocyte to monocyte ratio, additionally testing with  Horvath's epigenetic clock he was able to show reversal of aging by 2.5 years.

His recommendation is to regrow your thymus at age 45, then again at 50, then at 65.
