I don’t know if germ plasm possesses any agenda, but perhaps the constituents do. The plasm is just the substrate… the liquid medium that primordia cultivate in. But it does seem sensible that germ plasm(a) claims most of the excess energy in the body. Excess energy in the body is wasted any way after metabolic diffusion, so if excess energy is lingering in plasm seems natural and of no consequence. But I am very wary about germ plasm and its own consciousness being relevant to the body post blastopore though… and we’re talking VERY FIRST blastopore… like initial fertilization first. As a side note, if germs possess any type of self-consciousness aside from engrained replication, we have put an end to the right to life debate. All in all though, I do not agree with the fact that scientist believe that if they can reroute this energy processing , people would be living longer lives. In fact, this is probably very bad for the body.

It is bad for the body because the body has a capacity and overdrive capacity for processes in the body. Say you are of average weight for your height and have a healthy intake, you are most likely to have bodily processes within the normal capacity of your body in cases such as cell replication for an example. Now if you are severely overweight, your body’s processes work twice as hard and cell replication capacity is increased beyond a safe threshold for bodily maintenance. If these scientists suppose that a longer life can be gained by working an engine twice as hard (more energy to process), I really disagree with that. Think about it… if you run your car engine twice as hard, it is more likely to break down twice as fast.

However, the main thing that help people live longer lives are fighting free radicals and carcinogens and such in your body. These things cause cancer and rapid aging. If you take 2000 mg of vitamin C a day, you are doing your body a great service because vitamin C is proven to fight most of these things.

But keep your eye out for a drug called resveritrol. This is the golden pill that is really supposed to extend your life by twenty to thirty years. Its made from grapes skin and fights inflammation and fungal propagation.
