Trpv1 Pain Receptors
According to a recent study, the result of blocking a pain receptor in mice extends their lifespan as well as gives them a more useful metabolism. The mice also appeared to have an improved response for them to deal more efficiently with high blood sugar. This experiment allowed a professor to express the conclusion that blocking pain receptors can be useful in not only relieving pain but also in improving lifespan, metabolic health, and treating diabetes/obesity in humans. Professor Andrew Dillin states, "As humans age they report a higher incidence of pain, suggesting that pain
