A new start-up called Ambrosia is selling blood transfusions to wealthy executives for thousands of dollars, promising them numerous health benefits and potential anti-aging properties
Jesse Karmazin is selling teen blood for $8000 per transfusion to hopeful executives who seek to cure health problems associated with aging and potentially halt the aging process altogether. So far, Karmazin has accumulated 100 of these “vampires” as clients.
Seeking the immortality of vampires
Consuming the blood of young teens, even intravenously, conjures images of vampires. The idea that blood from the young could revitalize those who have begun aging, and promise immortality, is an ancient one.
We generally view the idea of using blood from young virgins to stay alive as a psychopathic endeavor undertaken by monsters; Horrifying historical figures such as Vlad the Impaler, and Elizabeth Bathory who apparently bathed in the blood of young maidens. So why would Karmazin wish to cash in on such a gruesome idea?
