Now there are natural ways to slow down and even reverse the process of telomere shortening. The type of environment that a human being is immerse in, plays a major contributing role to accelerating, or decelerating, or even reversing the telomeres shortening process (i.e. the aging process).
Ever noticed that young presidents come into the White House with a healthy head of hair, but by the time they leave the presidency after serving 4 or 8 years, they come out with worn out white hair. The stressful environments that they were immersed in, accelerated their telomeres shortening process (i.e. they experienced accelerated aging, accelerated deterioration process).
Now NASA demonstrated that one particular environment causes the telomeres to repair & regenerate, to re-lengthen (the low gravity environment of space). The video below demonstrates this.
In other words, every human being has the genes to repair and re-lengthen the telomeres. But these genes lay dormant, inactivated until.... humans are subjected to the right environment that will trigger the activation of these immortal genes.
For those who read the Holy Scriptures, would know that it talked a lot about how to create an environment that will trigger immortality (i.e. telomeres repair).
As an analogy to further illustrate this point. If a branch of a plant was cut and placed in a jar of water, something interesting develops. After a certain amount of time, roots begin to develop on the cut branch. The root genes lay dormant, inactivated while the branch is in the air environment. But immerse the cut branch into a water environment and the root genes get activated.
The same apply to the dormant sleeping immortal genes. Put human beings in the right environment that they were meant to live in, and the immortal genes get activated.

Now why do we have an interest in helping loving, gentle, & kind human beings achieve immortality? Because immortality is humanity salvation from self-destruction and extinction as a species.
What does it mean to be mortal? To be mortal is to self-destruct after certain amount of time (approximately after 90 years of life). Because human being self-destruct, their thinking & problem solving approach is also self-destructive. Everything human beings touch or create, self-destruct after a certain period of time. For examples:
Human design the light bulb to break down, to self-destruct after a certain amount of time. The car engine or transmission is designed to break down & self-destruct after a certain mileage. The CD, DVD breaks down after a certain amount of time. Every problems that humankind tried to solve, the solutions failed after a certain amount of time. This is why all the social problems that mankind had thousand of years ago, are still with us today. Violence, war, oppression, abuse, poverty, pollutions, crimes, injustice, greed, hate, jealousy, pettiness, indifference, etc... are still around, despite repeated attempts to solve them. Because all the attempts at solving these problems self-destruct.
By becoming immortal, people will transition from a self-destructive(temporary) mentality toward an immortal(permanent) mentality. From a temporary problem solving approach mindset, to a permanent problem solving approach mindset.
