You mischaracterize me, and fall for the fake news corrupt scientists are paid to proclaim.

Elizabeth Bathory didn't publish any papers you have read, but she took the blood of virgins. Neither was she first, nor are vampires merely a literary gimmick. There is definitive research that shows infusion of young blood retards aging. Perhaps you should consider other literary sources than the one link to modern scientific research I provided in the OP. There is significantly more material, but it is unreasonable to provide more than one link on an issue peripheral to the post. The blood of virgins is an ancient meme that long predates the scientific method, in fact, so playing pedantic because virginity is merely synonymous with youth isn't constructive, but obfuscatory.

Stanford's disclaimers in Vanity Fair notwithstanding.

Edit: criticize me harder than that. Pedantry doesn't do it for me. Give me real reasons to change my mind, not just a little snark. Also, regarding pedantry, note the quoted statement in your comment refers to '...making the aging process reverse...' This isn't at all the same as retarding aging, but is the mythical Fountain of Youth. Not a pedantic difference but between living longer better and immortality, a difference that could not be more substantial.
