Aging Solutions In Moles

People have been trying to slow aging for years. Now scientists think they may have a lead. Mole rats are the longest living rodents on earth; they can live up to 30 years, when normal rodents (such as rats and mice) only live a few years. Scientists believe that by studying these creatures they might be able to produce some kind of medication that can slow aging in humans. Moles, despite their wrinkled and decrepit look, are actually very health animals, and rarely get diseases. This makes them an even better candidate in age-slowing research.
