  • Called ExPlas, it involves the blood plasma of young adults who exercise regularly.  Here's what we know:
  • A Norwegian scientific team is injecting blood plasma from healthy, young, exercising adults into people aged 50 to 75 years old with early-stage Alzheimer's Disease
  • Their hope is not to just help non-exercising young people but also the elderly and those with disabilities
  • A survey of 100 countries found that 33% of people don't exercise
  • An exercise pill or injection could replicate the beneficial results of exercise
  • Exercise is known to release beneficial hormones
  • The key to the pill or injection is what hormones should comprise it
  • By injecting the blood plasma of healthy, young exercisers, the Norwegian team is transferring all of the beneficial hormones
  • Many experts believe that this group of Norwegian scientists are bringing us close to an effective exercise pill.
