Rejuvenation………. Life extension strategies

Rejuvenation is distinct from life extension. Life extension strategies often study the causes of aging and try to oppose those causes in order to slow aging.

Rejuvenation is the reversal of aging and thus requires a different strategy, namely repair of the damage that is associated with aging or replacement of damaged tissue with new tissue. Rejuvenation can be a means of life extension, but most life extension strategies do not involve rejuvenation.

Various myths tell the stories about the guest for rejuvenation. It was believed that magic or innervations supernatural power can be back the youth and many mythical advantages set out a journey to do that, for themselves, their relatives or some authority that sent them.
