One of the theories about aging is that it's just graduation damage of DNA over time. That's why people's definition and function basically wither away with age, because their very definition has.
So would it be possible to gradually stock pile your blood from your 20s, and then when you're 40-80 years old replace your blood with your blood from your 20 year old self? Or use technology to produce your blood much like they are starting to do with organs?
Would that not reverse many of the effects of aging as your body builds new proteins/tissue based off the young DNA? Of course some skin and brain tissue may not be able to fully recover. Or is DNA in your blood not the source for producing all body tissue?
