There is no point in prolonging life if the result will be illness and debilitation. People are now living longer, healthier lives than their grandparents, and their children will live longer still. Eventually, aging itself will be a treatable, reversible condition as medicine attains full control of the human body at the molecular level. By the time it becomes possible to restore cryonics patients, especially today’s cryonics patients, biological aging as we know it today will not exist.
Human embryos are routinely cryopreserved for years at ultra-low temperatures. Through IVF and fertility treatments, these embryos later develop into healthy humans. Similarly, there are documented cases of individuals successfully revived after hours without vital signs due to extreme cold exposure. These biological precedents, found throughout the animal kingdom, indicate that life processes can be paused and resumed when biology is properly preserved.
