There are dozens of movies, books and stories that explore the possibilities of amazing cures for all kinds of diseases hidden within the depths of the Amazon Rain Forest, atop high peaks in the Andes Mountains, or on mysterious volcanoes where it’s too hot to even venture.
But scientists have recently been studying a possible real-life solution for longevity and even immortality in a very ordinary place.
There are many varieties of trees that have incredible lifespans, but among them the palm has one of the longest. For this reason, researchers at the University of Leeds studied the genetic makeup of this tree to see what longevity secrets it might be holding.
One of the key differences between plants, which can have amazingly long lifespans, and animals, which typically do not, is the makeup of the cellular structure.
Animals have a relatively fixed cell organization compared to plants, such that organs and certain tissues that die can’t regenerate. Plants differ in that aspect, as many species have regenerative characteristics.
The difference between palm trees and other, denser hard-wood trees is that palm tree cells can remain alive throughout its entire lifespan, as opposed to the hard-wood trees. Their cells eventually die and comprise the dead, outer material of the trunk. While a tree can live to be more than 2 or even 3 thousand years, most of is cells are only at most a hundred years old.
That is why there is such a focus on the longevity of the palm cells, which the authors maintain is lacking in the curricula of most modern plant biology fields of study.
Finding the similarities and differences in palm and animal metabolism may unlock future opportunities to extend human life and eliminate disease.

I originally opened this thinking it might actually be like most of the articles that are associated with Blue Heron, something enlightening and possibly educational plus containing useful information. However I was quite disappointed reading that it is only a study by another university. it’s almost like opening a packet of chewing gum and finding nothing worth chewing, which is as I have already written, a bit disappointing to say the very least.
Longevity isn’t going to be found in plants or magic potions, it is the genetics of “SPOME HUMANS” but not everyone, some have it but a majority do not, it’s a bit of a lottery in so many ways, if you are born to a family that has a record of this genetic wonder, then providing you attempt to live a healthy life and treat yourself with respect by eating and exercising properly or living as we were intended to, with all of its ramifications, then there is a good chance (considering Karma) that you should live to at last three score years plus ten, or even longer, maybe another thirty.

DEATH is a sexually transmitted disease. People die from myriads of causes. Be they sicknesses, accidents, wars, old age. Father time, the grim reaper, has demonstrated as long as man has been on the earth the limited time span for us all. Yes, even for Kings and Queens it comes, for the 'righteous' and unrighteous, for the god-fearing or atheist, death has shown itself to be King over all, and everything, and everybody. To prove its point; DEATH has killed tens of BILLIONS of us, and no one has beaten it. Many have promised life AFTER death, but that has proven just to be grasping at straws. Many have spoken of fountains of LIFE, magic potions, loitions, wonderful concoctions promising not just an extension to ones life but IMMORTALITY. Sounds like the ultimate snake oil salesman. When ALL around us tells us otherwise. Then again it fills a page or two of conjecture.
I think the whole point here, is not to promise that we will live forever, but to offer a way that the time we have be quality time. Meaning, that we are as healthy as possible, so as to have an active a life as possible.
Nobody gets out alive. Call me when you are ready to share the Blood Pressure cures for free, which is what retirees can afford.
Contact me when you release the secret. Love to live sickness free. Long disease free life. Yes.
No othrr.
Mankind has had over 6000 years to get it right but they can’t. The only way it’s going to happen is explained to us in one of the oldest books around. It tell us that (“God himself will be with them and He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be any more. The former things have passed away.”)”He also tells us that the righteous themselves will possess the earth. AND will RESIDE FOREVER UPON IT”.”No resident will say I’m sick” For those who accept The Scriptures you can refer to Psalms 37:29,Revelations 21:3-4 and Isaiah 33:24. So I truly believe that there will be a time when I will not have high blood pressure or anything else. One man brought it on but another man set it straight and his Father The Almighty always keeps His promises.
may i encourage you to study the bible we inherited sin which means we have missed the mark of perfection, but perfection was gods orginal plan, humans to live on earth forever PSALMS CHP 37. we wouldnt never imagine our child dying when it is our arms as baby, we all cry at funerals because it is not natural to die, but if you study the bible you will find the truth of the wonderful prophecies yet to come, so when you have a knock at the door with a religion that does not partake of killing or supporting war, you will know to ask for a free home bible study, then you find out why somethings were designed to live longer than other things all the best but science cant rely on man to find the answers compared to the vast universes, wheres your answers?
We cannot escape death but immortality is ours whether we want it or not.there is life after death and we have a choice to make before we get there. Depending on what we choose now will determine our quality of life now and in the future. I choose real life now and forever. I choose Jesus.Same goes for our choices of food right now. They have an affect on the quality of life we will have.
Tim, I agree with you about our choices in the here and now but this is mortal. Death is inevitable. Our physical choices now will determine the quality of our lives in our later years. Immortality in the afterlife is determined by how we live in our spiritual selves.
I think Sandra has got the same believe with me I also do not believe that BP has come to stay for ever, I have a strong believe that it is a temporary disease one of the days I shall be cured,the almighty’s power is greater than anything, it shall be done one day as I believe
