Chapter 2114

2041 Naturally beautiful, and will always stay young.

Xie Yiren let out a breath.

Zheng Ren this guy, finally didn't go crazy on the path of self-destruction and crash headfirst into the south wall.

Lin Wan broke into a smile, looking closely at Zheng Ren; this child looked at the Title: Teacher honestly, probably speaking the truth.

"It's true, I don't recommend you keep taking collagen supplements." Zheng Ren said, "Actually, the human body contains a lot of collagen; according to its structure, it can be divided into fibrous collagen, basement membrane collagen, microfibrillar collagen, anchoring collagen, hexagonal network collagen, non-fibrous collagen, transmembrane collagen, etc."

"..."

Not starting to speak human language again, Lin Wan curiously looked at her hairy-legged son-in-law, feeling that when he spoke these words she didn't understand, her whole body emitted a strange glow.

Just like over 20 years ago, when I first met Xie Ning.

Back then, Xie Ning was just a poor kid from the countryside who only knew how to farm and nothing else.

But after less than three months in the city, he already had his own judgment about this city and even the whole economic situation.

By coincidence, once I saw him reading a newspaper, Lin Wan Strange. A small hotel waiter, still reading the newspaper, are the characters on it not all recognized?

After a few casual words, Xie Ning confidently said that the biggest opportunity in the past 20-30 years is real estate.

He spoke logically, yet had strong persuasiveness. And the aura he emitted was similar to that of the hairy-legged son-in-law before, making people develop blind trust.

It's really interesting.

Although the industries are different and the tasks differ, in the end they all go from one success to another.

Moreover, Zheng Ren before us seems to achieve success a bit faster than our own Xie Ning.

"Zheng Ren, what gene are you talking about?" Lin Wan interrupted Zheng Ren's words, directly asking about what she was interested in.

Natural beauty, this is the greatest compliment.

As for Zheng Ren saying that in a few decades she would still look like someone in her thirties... every time she thought of it, Lin Wan would burst into a smile from the heart.

"We have launched a weight-loss project together with Lin JiaoJiao; do you know about it?"

"I know, the improved technique of gastric reduction surgery is done via Interventional surgery, leaving only a needle-sized mark on the body surface." Lin Wan said.

"Exactly!" Zheng Ren began to explain, "Weight loss surgery has a major difficulty. If you lose too much, the skin will become loose. Think about it: an 80-kilogram person takes over a year to lose down to 80 catties—can the skin not sag? It's like pregnancy…… but also different: pregnancy is only local, whereas obesity is whole-body, the principle is similar."

"Duolun duo kidney specialty doctor, in the best-selling books 'The Obesity Code' and 'The Complete Guide to Fasting,' gave a comprehensive discussion of this point. Many of the views in it I do not agree with."

"For example, fasting now has an improved version of Bigu, which also counts as fitting our national conditions."

"Even while driving, Xie Yiren gradually slowed down, listening attentively to Zheng Ren's explanation."

"Although I don't gain weight no matter how I eat now, Xie Yiren considers it due to her youth, with bodily functions at the peak of life. In a few years, when she turns thirty, she fears these good days will be gone."

"But according to Zheng Ren's explanation, could it be that I have some gene segment that causes me not to gain weight no matter what I eat?"

"If that's the case, that would be great."

"The author proposed a theory of autophagy, which is a process of self-renewal of the organism. Not only can it make a person feel refreshed, but it can also make those with autophagy capability younger than their peers, even extending lifespan."

"'Autophagy? Is it new cells devouring old cells?' Lin Wan asked."

"This can be understood that way." Zheng Ren said seriously, "I initially thought it was pseudoscience, but in 2016, scientist Yoshinori Ohsumi won the Nobel Prize in the related field."

"Yoshinori Ohsumi and Noboru Mizushima, professor at Dongjing Gongye Daxue, were candidates for the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, and they demonstrated that the autophagic function of biological proteins being broken down and reused in the body."

"After I studied it carefully for a few days, I found it still makes sense. Cellular spontaneity clears and updates the cell's damaged membranes, aged and altered organelles, or other cellular debris."

"Zheng Ren saw Xie Yiren's mother gradually showing a puzzled expression on her face, realizing that merely explaining the theory was not enough."

"At this point, talking about ICD coding with Zhou Litao is different; Zhou Litao is the Inpatient Chief of department 912, with solid basic knowledge. Although he doesn't understand, he knows to look it up later."

"Lin Wan is different; this is my future mother-in-law. I need to explain things in a simple, easy-to-understand way, just like when explaining a condition to a patient and their family."

"'How to metaphorize? It's like this Volvo, which would be scrapped after 15-20 years of driving. But if we give it an autophagy function, the engine and other parts could automatically update anytime, anywhere.'"

"'Even if driven for 20 or 30 years, it would still be like new! Well, saying that is indeed a bit exaggerated, but at least it would be much better than other cars, looking as if it had only been driven for two years.'"

"Lin Wan was astonished, covering her mouth with her hand. Her heart grew increasingly delighted, even... ecstatic."

"This hairy-legged son-in-law of mine uses a 'scientific' theory to prove that he possesses some ability, almost as if he won't age."

"What could make me happier than this?"

"Although whether he says it or not, the fact exists, but being able to prove it is impressive!"

"Lin Wan felt more confident in her heart, and her whole being radiated vigor."

"'What gene is that?' Lin Wan asked."

"'I guess, Aunt Lin, just a guess.' Zheng Ren still said solemnly, 'A study on the key autophagy regulatory factor beclin-1 has already given an answer: dysregulation of beclin-1 is related to diseases such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and increased pathogen invasion.'"

"High beclin-1 levels mean strong autophagy capability, making one less prone to aging, and it is related to longevity. It may even reduce the chance of getting cancer; these are some effects brought by beclin-1."

"'Of course, beclin-1 is only a preliminary research conclusion, and that study has made no progress so far.' Zheng Ren said with a smile: 'So I just said that your body definitely has an advantage at the genetic level, which is why you are so young and will remain young.'"

"Xie Yiren let out a breath."

"Zheng Ren, this guy…… looking tense, he really spares no effort in flattery. Even citing classics and seeking many theoretical evidences, just like when he usually treats patients."

"Now it's secured!"

"Lin Wan smiled especially happily, from the bottom of her heart."

"Last time I thought this young guy was not bad; now the more I look, the better he seems, and my judgment is still good."

"'Actually, today's surgery is not particularly necessary. Lin JiaoJiao's surgery is like sending charcoal in the snow, while yours is just adding icing on the cake.' Zheng Ren finally said."
