Simon Cowell's Blood 'Reset' for Anti-Aging

Music mogul Simon Cowell has revealed undergoing a unique wellness procedure involving filtering his blood, which he believes contributes to an 'aging backwards' effect. This process, described as a 'rinse' and 'filter' of the blood before reintroduction, aligns with descriptions of apheresis or extracorporeal blood oxygenation and ozonation (EBOO).

Cowell attributes his rejuvenation to this procedure, combined with improved diet, exercise, and stress reduction. While proponents like longevity expert Ralph Montague suggest benefits such as increased energy and mental clarity, medical professionals, including Dr. Marc Siegel, caution that such blood cleansing procedures are largely unregulated, unproven, and potentially dangerous.

Experts warn of risks including red blood cell breakdown, blood clots, and metabolic issues. The FDA has not approved apheresis devices for anti-aging purposes, and medical authorities emphasize that while some apheresis treatments are established for specific diseases, unregulated ozone-based therapies lack sufficient evidence of safety and efficacy.
