Imagine all your body functions reversed and you grow younger each day, how does that even work, you would be self sustaining and outputing rice and bread for 80 years? What do you guys think? Anyway I got it from Family Guy

Your liver doesn't grow older, and if damaged will heal itself, and it uses food to do so. No, you would not output the food you ate; it is not possible.

Right, make sense

Fiction often works any way the author wishes it to. Please try to restrict speculations to areas that can be addressed by science.

Piers Anthony, had something similar in 'Bearing an Hourglass', though involved time reversal there.

Well what I had in mind was a film from a friend named "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", got me thinking if you can actually program the DNA to reverse growth. Cell goes through mitosis to create a cell that is a few days younger

A species of jellyfish gets younger.

That is really cool. I would like to know how the cells revert back to its original state without cell division. I mean even for IPSC cell it needs to divide a few times before specialized cells become stem cell

 

P.S. Wait never mind, I looked up transdifferentiation and that kind of explains it

P.S. Gonna have to check the miroRNA on this one
