German woman injects ancient bacteria into blood for the sake of eternal youth

45-year-old actress Manush from Germany gives herself injections of Bacillus F bacteria, which were found in permafrost. The actress claims that it helps her look and feel younger.

Manush calls herself a "human lab rat" due to the fact that she was the first to test injections of Bacillus F. bacteria on herself. She has been doing procedures for three months.

Bacillus F was first discovered by Russian scientists in 2009 in the permafrost of Mammoth Mountain in Yakutia. The DNA code of the bacteria was deciphered only by 2015. According to scientists, these bacteria do not show any signs of aging and can be the key to eternal youth. Manush, apparently, took this statement to heart and began to inject bacteria into the blood.

The samples of bacteria were provided to the actress during a conference in London by Dr. Anatoly Brushkov, head of the Department of Geocryology at Moscow State University. Dr. Brushkov himself apparently took the bacteria, but only orally. But Manush was the first to inject bacteria directly into the blood.

Since the procedure is experimental, no doctor can inject Bacillus F without the risk of being left without a license. Therefore, the actress gives herself injections on her own under the supervision of a doctor and friends in case something goes wrong. She injects the bacteria into the blood every two weeks, but hopes to increase the dosage and frequency.

The Manush family was categorically against injections, but could not stop the woman. "Aging is a disease. Even as a teenager, I couldn't accept that I was getting older. I don't care what people think. I will stop at nothing to look younger," says the actress.

It is worth noting that injections are not the only procedure that a woman resorts to in order to look better. Over the past 20 years, she has spent about $50,000 on facelifts, breast implants and rhinoplasty.
