Do not do this. Only in animals.

What’s orange, may be able to extend your life, and is probably
already in the back of your medicine cabinet? Ibuprofen. A recent study
found that regular small doses of the pill extended the lives of animal
subjects by up to 15 percent. Not only did the animals live longer, but
they also lived healthier, and scientists believe the same effect could
be seen in humans.
In the study, scientists gave a number of species doses of ibuprofen
that would be comparable to the recommended human dose. They first began
their tests on baker’s yeast, but then moved on to worms and flies.
Results showed that over time this extended the test subjects’ lives by
15 percent, which when translated into human life is about an extra
dozen years of life.
"We are not sure why this works, but it's worth exploring further,"
explained Dr. Michael Polymenis, one of the collaborating researchers
who had taken part on the study, in a press release.
Ibuprofen interferes with the ability of yeast cells to pick a
universal amino acid called tryptophan. This molecule is essential for
human life, and ibuprofen’s effect on it results in longer healthier
lives.
While the findings are exciting, Polymenis explained to Medical Daily in an email that he did not recommend anyone take ibuprofen regularly without first consulting a physician.
“We just need more research to examine and understand these properties,” Polymenis said.
This study was the first to show that relatively safe drugs are
capable of extending lifespans, and according to Polymenis, ibuprofen
may not be the only drug with this unique capability.
“This study was a proof of principle to show that common, relatively
safe drugs in humans can extend the lifespan of very diverse organisms.
Therefore, it should be possible to find others like ibuprofen with even
better ability to extend lifespan, with the aim of adding healthy years
of life in people," Polymenis said.
Ibuprofen
is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It was first created in
England in the 1960s and is listed on the World Health Organization’s “list of essential medication.”
The drug is used to reduce fever and treat pain or inflammation. It’s
commonly used as a quick and easy treatment for minor ailments such as
headaches, toothaches, back pain, arthritis, and menstrual cramps.
“Our institute is interested in finding out why people get sick when
they get old. We think that by understanding those processes, we can
intervene and find ways to extend human health span, keeping people
healthier longer and slowing down aging. That's our ultimate goal,"
concluded Dr. Brian Kennedy, CEO of the Buck Institute, in the press
release.
Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 28,972 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.
