Immortality
doesn’t seem to be so far away. This concept of a substance that can make you
live forever, comes from alchemists, the fathers of nowadays scientists. But no
one have ever found the “philosopher’s stone”, till now.
Some
scientists from Nazarbayev University in the capital, Astana, have been asked
to develop a drink, similar to a yogurt, called “nar”. This idea came from their
72-year-old leader, Nursultan Nazarbayev, who has being reigning since 1990 and
wants to keep doing it till 2020.
This drink
is based on the idea that all the diseases are caused in the stomach.
Apparently the digestive system has a hundred trillion microbes, which is ten
times more the amount of the in the rest of our main organs. The mixture of
this microbes causes diseases as diabetes, obesity and even cancer. Controlling
them with special probiotics can be the answer to have a longer and healthier
life.
Country
rulers will always want to remind in power for a longer time, even queen Elizabeth
is interested in this improvement.
This drink
obviously won’t be sold on shops, but it has been already tested and openly presented
in an international scientific conference at the beginning of this month, in
the Nazarbayev University.
Did you
know about microbes? Would you try “nar”? why? Do you think it’s ok for a country’s
governator asked the scientific community to develop this kind of experiments?
