I have been monitoring Dr. Levin's research for quite awhile and am equally excited about his work. implications for his discoveries are vast and diverse. Great job of explaining Levin's work in the context of aging!
LIke you, I"ve been a fan of Dr. Levin's work for some time. But everything I've seen seems to take the obvious approach of regenerating new organs or limbs. Seems to me that there's a lot more potential there and I wanted to talk about it. Thanks..
Awesome information! David Sinclair, the Epigenetic Theory of aging, Yamanaka Factors, resetting the epigenome, ... the question they have still been unable to answer is ... Where is the reset information stored? ... Well, maybe this is it!
Michael Levin apparently began discussions with David Sinclair about bringing their work together into a collaborative regenerative medicine project. Michael mentions this in a podcast about two years ago. If the work is underway, it is not being publicized.
Thank you for an excellent presentation and explanation of Dr. Levin's work. I think the significance of this research is simply too under valued. It has true game-changing potential for regeneration, rejuvenation, longevity, disease treatment, and much more. It's actually a shame IMHO the amount of energy, money, attention, etc that goes toward things which arguably move the health needle at all like small molecules (e.g. resveratrol) research.
aging is a cumulative process of daily attrition damage and waste vs repair with error if we can quantify the error and introduce reverse processes into the body in a safe manner we could significantly stall aging and all kinds of chronic disease. aging is actually the simplest, most common chronic disease out there! in terms of how viable it is to tackle. it is fundamentally easier to deal with , with the right tools than advanced cancers or dementia. because it is shared by everyone and is relatively slow. we just don't have tools good enough yet. bioelectric concepts might be useful if we find a way to influence or take readings off cells , deliver drugs or control microbots.
Thanks for your thoughtful comment. This line of research holds so much potential. And given the amount of attention and dollars it has garnered in just the last 2 or 3 years, I feel that we'll get there soon.
Lance, Thank you for this “Awesome Video”, you explained it at a level that even a “dumb****” like me gets it. This looks a the type of stuff that could give those with devastating injuries “real hope”. How many military service members over the last several decades came home missing limbs? This type of content is what our institutions should be promoting. Now if we can figure a way to get rid of the obstructionist institutions who will try to find ways to stall/stop human progress, then we will have hope.
you are talking too much about institutions. By that you are giving them too much relevance, too much people of that, and you create a very bad socio-political climate. Stop beginning with that
Lance: Thank you. Intriguing hypothesis. It’s encouraging that Dr. LEVIN did not immediately think of an impediment to achieving your proposition. That is promising.
Wow. That sounds exciting! One question about the Bioelectric Network repair. If the person is eating a diet that is detrimental to his/her health, before and after treatment, won't that effect the target set date?
That question is far above my pay grade, but here's my take on it. I think the set point is immutable. You're either at that set point or you're not. If you're not, then the system uses small remodeling events to get us back to the set point. Maybe.
The effect of limb regeneration on cancer could be because the limb generation is consuming all of the angiogenetic factors leaving nothing for the tumors. A tumor which cannot stimulate angiogenesis will normally be removed by the immune system do to recognizable differences in the cells.
That snapshot of anatomical homeostasis is stored in the bioelectric layer, whether it's late teens or early 20s. That's why the frog was able to regrow it's own leg, because of the stored snapshot. That snapshot is apparently stored forever.
@@LanceHitchings Thanks. But you talked about that snapshot changing gradually up until adulthood. Why won't it keep changing. How do you know that the regenerated limb was a young frog's limb? And if we are born with that snapshot, how does it get there in the first place? What programs it?
Rupert Sheldrake? Could he be on to something? Rupert Sheldrake, PhD, is a biologist and author best known for his hypothesis of morphic resonance.

🤯 I just watched this for the second time because the implications were hard for me to process. The frog leg replacement reminded me of a process that had been used to regrow a human finger. The fundamental idea, as I understood it at the time, was to prevent the tip of the finger from scarring over. They used a special powder that kept the wound raw. The result was that the healing continued towards its regrowth target. Probably over a fairly long & painful period of time I imagine. Still the principle seems the same as this 'groundbreaking technology'. I wonder what happens when we heal any cut. Does that healing extend from a wound around the whole body electric and trigger other healing responses❓❓❓ This is science fiction 😀.
My friend had her little finger regrown using that technique which included pig stem cells. She unfortunately died from brain cancer a few years later. Connected? Who knows.
So one can imagine the day that one would first need to have all artificial items removed from their body, (like joints, heart valves and stents, lenses, etc.) before undergoing whole body regeneration?
@@paullovgren2537 Yes, i was wondering if some parts may be too "broken" for regrowth. And maybe some body parts are flexible enough that a variety of options is ok for the body.
"The animal already knew, at some level, how ....." In my opinion we are approaching one of the functions of a soul / spirit, which exists outside of this dimension. I like to read / listen to near death experiences. A part of us leaves this body during this "outside of time" process. Our thoughts and consciousness, our Beingness, we are human BEINGS, leaves the body, can do many amazing things outside our body, during this NDE Experience. I suppose that one of the purposes of this soul spirit thing, is to instruct the organism how to develop / how to repair and heal. It I suppose is a form of programming that translates from the ether world, to the physical world. It coordinates with other aspects of programming to deliver to our spirit the 3D world experience that we chose to experience before we entered this movie like Earth experience. It is all programming. The past / present / and future are already programmed into a movie before we get here. If this were not the case, then "angels" could not come and tell experiencers their future. Many just for example are told you have to go back, it is "not your time". How the hell do they know that??? Oh yeah, they just look ahead into your movie scripted slot. (Actually, they are part of the movie too, but I digress) There are children to be born, or to be cared for or whatever. You need to fulfill your contract obligations you signed up for. No backing out now - LOL. Things like remote viewing or prophetic dreams would not exist if this were not the case. Whatever your thinking about this is, it is all programmed to be. Whom ever made this movie is more than a genius. It kind of boggles the mind. (the mind programming also exists outside of time also I suppose. Otherwise, when we leave the body in an NDE, we would lose our mind??) A message from the Movie. Your welcome!
Good question, you'd have to ask Dr. Levin. Biological networks have been around ever since single celled life arose. Electrical potential is a function of the difference in ions across a membrane.
Lance always look forward to opening a new presentation from you. Another great presentation. Exciting and informative, food for thought. My immediate thought was that frog limb regeneration was easily as long (normally weeks) as the taken for a tadpole to mature into a frog. Applied to a human would this take 20+ years for full regeneration? Second thought, as a frog is an amphibian, like salamanders (who can do this easily) and some reptiles that can loose and regrow tails, it’s likely to be more difficult to trigger in mammals. My third thought is should we (at some point in the future) be able to apply this as sustainable human regeneration and repair would that human need to regress back to a point if biological immaturity say 17-years or less?
Great points. The science is still in it's infancy and, not being a scientist, I can't predict where it will go. But I for one would be totally willing to take 20 years to regrow an amputated fingertip if it meant the I was constantly growing younger, not older.
@@LanceHitchings Dr. Levin was born in the USSR and influenced by his father's Soviet computer science background. Strangely, despite the USSR's repressive nature, due to its relative isolation from 'Western' science for decades, scientists there developed innovative techniques like PEMF, Bio-Resonance Scans and other methods involving electromagnetism and even machines to detect the subtle energies of the Eastern traditions. They never would have been allowed to develop these methods in the West because of the stigma. I have a PEMF mat and it really helps me. I'm ready to grow young again. Can you imagine the advantage decades of life experience and emotional maturity contained in a young body will give us over ordinary young people? It will terrify those smug 20-year-olds :D But I'll be kind, at least. And they might actually listen to me because I'll appear young and not as a random middle-aged dude. I remember what I was like, I did some really stupid stuff. I felt invulnerable, so I destroyed my back and damaged my joints. Fortunately I have found effective and truly miraculous treatments like PEMF, intravenous NAD+ and ketamine.
I'm on the path to create the LIGHTbed. It will use cool plasma, such as you see in a plasma ball, only cool. But there is strong evidence that light energy (biophotonics), coupled with frequency and magnetics, along with nutrition, will do exactly this. Regenerate.
Right before you have shown the slide for regeneration by cutting a finger off, I was looking at the same finger of my left hand and wondering if this could be possible :)
I really don't think that we'll need to amputate in order to trigger. Whatever signaling molecules are necessary to trigger the regen process I'm confident we'll identify and figure out how to deliver via injection or some other suitable mechanism.
The description of Dr. Levin's experiments with the Planaria and the frog is fascinating. Yet, I do not see 1) How these in any way support the stated theory of development of moving snapshot targets, and 2) Any indication of how the bioelectricity encodes, stores or delivers the morphological model. I get it that you do not need to understand this to make it work. And by the same toke, no need to explain something with a theory that lacks the basic description of hows. Best luck to this research though. I am excited about the practical potential. The theoretical part, I think, needs some work.
There's a ton of information about Dr. Levin's work that I did not go into, if I had, the video would have been 2 or 3 hours instead of 20 minutes. And yes, even Dr. Levin says there's a lot more work to be done before it's ready for prime time.
@@LanceHitchings Thank you for taking the time to read and reply. I look forward to hearing, if and when available, more details about the mechanism by which the morphological model is encoded.
@@LanceHitchings I just watched a presentation by Dr. Levin. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in this line of work: ua-cam.com/video/_QICRPFWDpg/v-deo.html This is a case where UA-cam algorithm actually helped beginning to answer some the que questions that I asked in my comment. Fascinating field of research!
I'll volunteer to spend a year in the full body biodome as long as my consciousness can reside in the matrix (in an upper class role.) Do you still have any of those blue pills?
I don't know what Charles Brenner's deal is, that he dismisses ALL this stuff as hype when it is incredible and AI is so intertwined with it and advancing so fast. I know there is bad blood between him and David Sinclair, and I know he is invested in Chromadex, whose stock has collapsed as the benefits of NR supplementation have been questioned. Saying age reversal is impossible when we have literally shown proof of concept in multiple animal models and some indicators in humans as well is bizarre.
I think (in part) this research shows we don't need to know the details of exactly how regen biologically works. We simply need to learn how to trigger it. We as humans have a history of leveraging things we don't fully understand, even something as basic as gravity is an example of that.
They reprogram the bioelectrical network by exposing it to the fluid in the biodome. I honestly don't understand how that works, but the concoction that they put together...they got it right on the first try. Dr. Levin said that there are many other option that they could use, and that some of them are bound to work much better.
This is quite old technology. I guess it's come off patent now so others can research it.. I watched it on TV about 15+ or more years ago. A guy lost the end of his finger and they had a powder he dipped his finger into each day and instead of scar tissue forming is stimulated regrowth of the finger and he was growing is end of finger back again. I think they made it from pigs intestine. I'd have to search for the original video It was on a TV program like "That's Incredible" or something like that. The powder was nicked named Pixie Dust. if I recall. Scrapings from a Pigs intestines.
@@johannesstephanusroos4969 You regrew a new joint? I think maybe you were too young to remember correctly. And if you actually did, why half? And why not a whole leg.
Very interesting video. How about this frog´s lifespan or epigenetic age before and after the experiment? Could they reproduce the experiment on rats just to see if they become young again? thanks
Unfortunately, Dr. Levin and his team were more interested in regrowing new limbs than in extending lifespans, so they did no experiments regarding lifespan or epigenetic age. They are planning on ramping things up towards humans, so I would imagine that they'll perform experiments on rats, but I haven't heard that they have any plans on looking at aging in rats. Hopefully, they, or someone else, will pursue that.
Actually Dott Levin said that they are testing this method on mice some months ago.. if the theory of Lance at the end of the video turns out right on mice.. and without side effects.. let hope they will get good results
This is terribly exciting news. I've been following anti-aging for years (although you certainly understand it far better than I do). I agree that we're JUST around the corner from a breakthrough. But this always brings me to the big question - what the hell happens to the world when that takes place? Having everyone on this planet suddenly become immortal - I can't see this having global positive results, especially the way we treat each other and this planet. I'd love for you to make a video on your thoughts on this - HOW, as an entire planet, we handle such an immense shift? Would you consider making such a video?
Absolutely! For one thing, if we could live radically longer lives, I think it would incite more people into taking care of the planet. Now, it's a problem for their children and grandchildren. If we could live to 150 or 200, it suddenly becomes their problem. Also, birth rates in developed countries are rapidly decreasing, some are even experiencing negative birth rates. And it's in developed countries where life extension therapies will first be available. So yeah, I see a reason for hope, not dispair.
@@LanceHitchings Good points about the birth rates! I didn't know about negative birth rates (trying to wrap my head around what that looks like...). I look forward to any video you may make on your further thoughts about this. :)
@@SilverCuz It's really easy to have negative birth rates. All that has to happen is for every couple have less than two children, on average. That condition now holds in most developed nations. When it gets too low, it's extremely problematic. It leads to shortages of workers and failures of retirement systems.
Could the bioelectric field have something to do with why fat people regain weight they have lost? Is there a set point due to this? Or am I talking nonsense?
The specimen, a 115-lb amphibian, was found lurking in a subterranean cave outside of Chongquing, China. Measuring 4 ½ feet long, scientists estimate the salamander to be over 200 years old
4 years ago a French lab said they were 1 year away from human trials of new teeth growing but I think Covid19 put a stop on that. One problem was that the DNA is in the teeth themselves so if you have no teeth your out of luck. The electrobiom probably contains an electronic copy of the code so there is still hope for toothless people.
@@houndofzoltan nothingness you say. That is just something you tell yourself to make you feel better. But I suspect your conscience tells you differently
@@sidstevens9035 if your life is objectively meaningless, why do you value it so much. You think by eating healthy and taking a few supplements your gonna live forever or what
I used to follow Lance for long but didn't watch his videos for almost a year. I am completely shocked. What happened with him. He looks 15 years older than just a year ago. As for the news, it is not worthwhile to put any hopes on this technology, IMO. After all, we are not frogs. We cannot grow another head, not to mention legs and hands. As for distributed intelligence, it has name: morphic fields and resonance.

It is by far the best video I have seen on possible rejuvenation

Many thanks!
2 people from Brampton loving the subject Lance presents.
This is essentially what swami rama and the ancients said all along. We have a sheath of energy or biofield that informs the body.
aging is a cumulative process of daily attrition
damage and waste vs repair with error
if we can quantify the error
and introduce reverse processes into the body in a safe manner
we could significantly stall aging and all kinds of chronic disease.
aging is actually the simplest, most common chronic disease out there!
in terms of how viable it is to tackle.
it is fundamentally easier to deal with , with the right tools than advanced cancers or dementia.
because it is shared by everyone and is relatively slow.
we just don't have tools good enough yet.

I've learned a lot from you. I think that we are each on the bleeding edge of longevity knowledge.
Great presentation.
Thanks

@@LanceHitchings Thank you for taking the time to read and reply.
I look forward to hearing, if and when available, more details about the mechanism by which the morphological model is encoded.
@@LanceHitchings I just watched a presentation by Dr. Levin. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in this line of work: ua-cam.com/video/_QICRPFWDpg/v-deo.html
This is a case where UA-cam algorithm actually helped beginning to answer some the que questions that I asked in my comment. Fascinating field of research!
I'll volunteer to spend a year in the full body biodome as long as my consciousness can reside in the matrix (in an upper class role.) Do you still have any of those blue pills?
I don't know what Charles Brenner's deal is, that he dismisses ALL this stuff as hype when it is incredible and AI is so intertwined with it and advancing so fast. I know there is bad blood between him and David Sinclair, and I know he is invested in Chromadex, whose stock has collapsed as the benefits of NR supplementation have been questioned. Saying age reversal is impossible when we have literally shown proof of concept in multiple animal models and some indicators in humans as well is bizarre.
Could this method heal a limb damaged even without being amputated with nerve damage, bone damage or soft tissue damage ?
Unknown. Right now, this is so experimental that it's never been done on mammals, let alone humans. It's all theoretical at this point.
@@LanceHitchings Thanks for reply..
Hello. How are you.
I'm available for projects
In what role?
Cool, but how do "reprogramme" a bioelectric network... where is the information stored and in what form?
I think (in part) this research shows we don't need to know the details of exactly how regen biologically works. We simply need to learn how to trigger it. We as humans have a history of leveraging things we don't fully understand, even something as basic as gravity is an example of that.
They reprogram the bioelectrical network by exposing it to the fluid in the biodome. I honestly don't understand how that works, but the concoction that they put together...they got it right on the first try. Dr. Levin said that there are many other option that they could use, and that some of them are bound to work much better.
This is quite old technology. I guess it's come off patent now so others can research it.. I watched it on TV about 15+ or more years ago. A guy lost the end of his finger and they had a powder he dipped his finger into each day and instead of scar tissue forming is stimulated regrowth of the finger and he was growing is end of finger back again. I think they made it from pigs intestine. I'd have to search for the original video It was on a TV program like "That's Incredible" or something like that. The powder was nicked named Pixie Dust. if I recall. Scrapings from a Pigs intestines.
Lance, can I use this to grow a new brain? I'd like to keep the old one (memories) but I need a processor upgrade.
I'm thinking at least 8 cores.
Only 8?
@@LanceHitchings We have to conserve energy. Think of the planet!
Why then when a child (who is in the regenerative/developmental stage) loses a finger, it doesn't grow back?
Actually, young children sometime DO regrow amputated fingertips, while adults cannot. Google it.
@@LanceHitchings I read it's only the tip and that it happens because of something in the nail. What about a whole leg, why doesn't it regrow?
I regrew half of my finger when I was age 11 or so
@@johannesstephanusroos4969 You regrew a new joint? I think maybe you were too young to remember correctly. And if you actually did, why half? And why not a whole leg.
@@JonathanOvnat I suppose the fact that I have the joint answers your question, and, obviously, a leg is much larger than a finger
Very interesting video. How about this frog´s lifespan or epigenetic age before and after the experiment? Could they reproduce the experiment on rats just to see if they become young again? thanks
Unfortunately, Dr. Levin and his team were more interested in regrowing new limbs than in extending lifespans, so they did no experiments regarding lifespan or epigenetic age. They are planning on ramping things up towards humans, so I would imagine that they'll perform experiments on rats, but I haven't heard that they have any plans on looking at aging in rats. Hopefully, they, or someone else, will pursue that.
@@LanceHitchings I hope they do. Thanks Lance!
@@LanceHitchings It seems it would be an easy extra measurment to take.
Actually Dott Levin said that they are testing this method on mice some months ago.. if the theory of Lance at the end of the video turns out right on mice.. and without side effects.. let hope they will get good results
This is terribly exciting news. I've been following anti-aging for years (although you certainly understand it far better than I do). I agree that we're JUST around the corner from a breakthrough. But this always brings me to the big question - what the hell happens to the world when that takes place? Having everyone on this planet suddenly become immortal - I can't see this having global positive results, especially the way we treat each other and this planet. I'd love for you to make a video on your thoughts on this - HOW, as an entire planet, we handle such an immense shift? Would you consider making such a video?
Absolutely! For one thing, if we could live radically longer lives, I think it would incite more people into taking care of the planet. Now, it's a problem for their children and grandchildren. If we could live to 150 or 200, it suddenly becomes their problem. Also, birth rates in developed countries are rapidly decreasing, some are even experiencing negative birth rates. And it's in developed countries where life extension therapies will first be available. So yeah, I see a reason for hope, not dispair.
@@LanceHitchings Good points about the birth rates! I didn't know about negative birth rates (trying to wrap my head around what that looks like...). I look forward to any video you may make on your further thoughts about this. :)
@@SilverCuz It's really easy to have negative birth rates. All that has to happen is for every couple have less than two children, on average. That condition now holds in most developed nations. When it gets too low, it's extremely problematic. It leads to shortages of workers and failures of retirement systems.
Could the bioelectric field have something to do with why fat people regain weight they have lost? Is there a set point due to this? Or am I talking nonsense?
I don't think that the bioelectric network has anything to do with this, but that's just my opinion.
@@LanceHitchings You're probably right.
Great video! Gonna suggest you volunteer to loose your pinkie.
Hey, if this whole thing works out, I'll be at the front of the line!
The specimen, a 115-lb amphibian, was found lurking in a subterranean cave outside of Chongquing, China. Measuring 4 ½ feet long, scientists estimate the salamander to be over 200 years old
Grow new teeth?
4 years ago a French lab said they were 1 year away from human trials of new teeth growing but I think Covid19 put a stop on that. One problem was that the DNA is in the teeth themselves so if you have no teeth your out of luck. The electrobiom probably contains an electronic copy of the code so there is still hope for toothless people.
In the end we will die, so prepare for eternity by loving God and die in a state of Grace. Longevity is a waste of time
@@nenadnenads1594 well your comment tells me you believe otherwise
We will all die in the end, but I suspect you'll be meeting eternal nothingness before the rest of us.
@@houndofzoltan nothingness you say. That is just something you tell yourself to make you feel better. But I suspect your conscience tells you differently
Whackadoodle alert !!!
@@sidstevens9035 if your life is objectively meaningless, why do you value it so much. You think by eating healthy and taking a few supplements your gonna live forever or what
I used to follow Lance for long but didn't watch his videos for almost a year. I am completely shocked. What happened with him. He looks 15 years older than just a year ago.
As for the news, it is not worthwhile to put any hopes on this technology, IMO. After all, we are not frogs. We cannot grow another head, not to mention legs and hands. As for distributed intelligence, it has name: morphic fields and resonance.
And, how can we measure the bioelectric networks you talk about? (I am guessing it is not even physical.)
-NIls
Using some of those tools developed for use by neuroscientists, I imagine.
So they discovered wave genetics (what the Russians have been researching for 25 years) xD ?
This work is amazing, thanks for sharing.
You're very welcome!
So if someone has had a nose job, would the nose grow back like it used to be in a rejuvenating process?
😂 That's a great question. I have no idea.
Interesting that Michael Levin is involved! 😎
Uh, maybe a different Michael Levin?
Lance is already too late
Why haven't you elaborated on your stem cell therapy experience..... I paid $5000 here in USA for umbilical cord stem cells at orthopedic clinic... for osteoarthritis in both hips ....... didn't work....... having first hip surgery in April ....later second surgery....my summer is toast 😩😩😩
Tell you surgeon than you won't do the surgery unless he puts you on prophylactic antibiotics.
My friends who have had hip replacements healed very quickly. You'll probably still have a good summer. Good luck with it.
