Knowing the length of your age while living in the world seemed impossible. However, a researcher in the field of health claims can find out 'biological age' someone through the length of the structure of the ends of chromosomes called telomeres.
This is a new breakthrough that could tell how long you can survive. At a cost of £ 435 or about Rp 6 million, through a series of tests longevity of this DNA test will be offered in the UK end of 2011.
Scientists believe that the telomeres is an important indicator of a person related to the speed of aging. Individuals with shorter telomeres than normal size, tend to die at a younger age, longer telomeres than the owner.
However, this test can not predict the exact number of months and years a person will die. "Testing will continue to be advanced telomeres in five or 10 years into the future," the scientists said, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
Regardless of its accuracy, this finding is reaping a lot of criticism. Been controversial because it seemed able to uncover the secret behind Pandora's box. In fact, do not rule out going to a lot of insurance companies are asking customers to do this test before agreeing to purchase the policy.
Some scientists have also been asking questions about the ethical control, if the technology is widely used in the future.
Therefore, this could trigger a negative reaction if the poor test results. Some researchers are also concerned about the possibility of the organization or individual doing the hijacking of the results of this test and try to peddle fake potions for life.
However, the scientists say that these tests also provide important insights to minimize health problems associated with age. Ranging from cardiovascular disease to Alzheimer's and cancer.
Maria Blasco Spanish National Cancer Research Centre in Madrid's commercial test inventor says, "We know that people are born with longer telomeres are shorter than normal have a shorter lifespan. But we do not know if longer telomeres will ensure the lifespan long time. "
