Amazing Russian Discovery Could Lead To New Virility Treatments For Men

Fascinating new research being carried out by a team of Russian scientists working in the freezing Siberian graveyard of woolly rhinos and extinct mammoths has uncovered a type of bacteria which they say could a open avenues of research into medications to enhance human life and virility.

The nickname for this bacterium is 'pre-historic Viagra’ because it has already been tested on lab mice and found to increase physical and sexual activity in both males and females. The scientists even claimed that the female mice were getting pregnant up to the human age equivalent of 70!

In fact the scientists say that the bacterium is not connected to the mammoth and the woolly rhinoceros but was found independently in the permafrost in the remote region of the Yakutia region in East Russia. Finding this prehistoric Viagra bacterium was a by product of a project which is trying to clone these two animals from DNA strands and bring them back from the dead.

Professor Anatoli Broushkov from Tyumen University said that when they had decoded the DNA of the bacterium they knew that they had discovered something completely novel and different from anything else that had been previously recorded. He described it as a “unique event and absolutely extraordinary” because scientists had never previously seen such a long life for a bacterium which is estimated to be between 3 and 5 million years old.

They have tested it on fruit flies and mice and have seen that they live considerably longer after being vaccinated with an extract of this bacterium. Some of the old male mice suddenly displayed increased sexual activity which the researchers found startling.

Professor Broushkov said that Russian businessmen had already offered funds to develop this bacterium further so that anti-ageing drugs could be developed for future use and explained that they were still trying to learn how and why this bacterium survives for so long.
