Blood factors obtained from young beings can improve late-life health in animals, the study published in Nature journal revealed.
It could also help reduce the chances of developing age-related diseases, the scientists at University College London (UCL) said.
Dame Linda Partridge, a geneticist at UCL, said research shows that young blood could allow humans to live a life free of diseases such as cancer and heart disease right up until their deaths.
