Saudi Arabia is now seen to be diversifying the industries they are involved in, and not just the oil industry. Apart from investing in a number of video game companies, Saudi Arabia now also allocates $ 1 billion a year in studying the field of anti -aging.
Saudi Arabia formed a special organization for this purpose, named the Hevolution Foundation. This annual fund will study the biology behind aging, and find methods to extend human life expectancy for healthy living.
For now, the full scope of the study has not been officially shared yet. However, this investment will make it one of the high research funds, as well as find the cause of aging in humans.
Scientifically, if we can slow down the aging process, it will allow humans to overcome various diseases - and at the same time prolong a healthy life span.
In Saudi Arabia itself, although the average age of the people is 31, but they are now facing increasing rates of obesity and diabetes among the people. In fact, there are some signs showing people in the Middle East are aging faster biologically even though the age is not so high.
In addition to Saudi Arabia, several parties are also studying anti-aging technologies, including one by Jeff Bezos himself.
