Human cryogeny, known scientifically as cryogenic, is a technique that allows the body to cool to a temperature of -196 degrees Celsius, causing the process of deterioration and aging to stop. Therefore, it is possible to keep the body in the same condition for several years, so that in the future it can revive.
Cryogeny has been used especially in terminal patients with serious diseases, such as cancer, in the hope that they will be restored when the cure for their disease is discovered, for example. However, this technique can be practiced by anyone after death.
- Human cryogenics cannot yet be achieved in Brazil.
- But there are already companies in the United States that practice the process for people from all countries.
Although commonly called the freezing process, cryogenics is actually a vitrification process in which bodily fluids are not stored in solid or liquid state, similar to glass.
To achieve this status, you need to follow a step-by-step that includes:
To achieve the best results, a member of the laboratory team must be present during the final phase of life, to begin the process shortly after death.
People who do not have a serious illness but wish to undergo cryogenics should wear a wristband with information to call a person on the lab team as soon as possible, ideally within the first 15 minutes.
The biggest obstacle to cryogenics is the process of resuscitation of the body, because it is not yet possible to revive the person, having been able to revive only animal organs. However, it is hoped that with the advances of science and medicine it will be possible to revive the whole body.
Currently, cryogenics in humans is only practiced in the United States, as it is home to the only two companies in the world with the ability to preserve bodies. The total value of cryogenics varies depending on the age and health status of the person, however, the average value is 200 thousand dollars.
There is also a more economical cryogenic process, in which only the head is preserved to keep the brain healthy and ready to be placed in another body, as a clone in the future, for example. This process is cheaper, close to $80,000.
