You can assume that for every day you take the pill you don't age that day - if you skip it for a day you age by a day.

I would take it just so my body doesn't deteriorate but I don't want to delay death either. Need more info.

Will it be simply cosmetic event or would it involve preserving the integrety of your internal organs?

If it's the second: welcome to Groundhog Day, except the rest of the world moves and you stay still.

If I take 2 a day could I go back in time?

[–] festus@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

No. I guess the idea with the question is more around how often you'd take the pill. People can extend their lifetimes already by exercising and eating healthy, but how often do they keep that habit every day. If the pill only worked for one day at a time, how often do you think you'd skip taking it because you'd only age one day and you had a really busy day?

Guess I'll take a bunch of aging pills and look at my future self then use anti aging pills to go back.

Without hesitation.
