From PZ Myers:
If you can’t trust the Sun/New York Post, who can you trust? This is their summary of a science article.
Drinking young people’s blood could help you live longer and prevent age-related diseases, a study has found.
Blood factors taken from younger animals have been found to improve the later-life health of older creatures.
The study, published in Nature, was conducted by researchers from University College London (UCL), who said it could reduce the chances of developing age-related disorders.
Gosh, that sounds like fun, so I clicked through to read the source.
I was so disappointed.
It’s a review article titled “Facing up to the global challenges of ageing”, and it’s not about wealthy vampires bleeding young people dry at all. It’s also not a “study”.
