Moneybags Mel is shelling out a staggering $12,000 for each dose of living tissue shot into his bloodstream. So far, the "Lethal Weapon" star has had two injections — but “he’s desperate to live forever” and to get another treatment “once every six months,” said a friend. Gibson swears his dad, Hutton, is living proof the therapy works. Hutton had crippling health issues before beginning the injections in 2013. He is now a spry 98 — and can walk without a cane! “Mel reckons it’s saved his dad’s life,” said the friend.

Some medics say stem cells injected into the bloodstream zero in on damaged tissue and repair it using genetic codes. Other scientists are not convinced — and claim the cutting-edge treatment is dangerous. But Mel, who has nine kids, insists he’s discovered the mythical fountain of youth — and it’s even boosting his sexual performance with 27-year-old baby mama Rosalind Ross! “Mel’s a lightning bolt in the bedroom,” said the friend.

But some Hollywood insiders are wondering if reformed alcoholic Mel is trading one “obsession” for another in a desperate bid to keep his comeback alive and kicking. Mel became a showbiz outcast in 2006 after he went on a drunken, tequila-fueled rant against Jews during a DUI stop. Then his turbulent relationship with Oksana Grigorieva exploded in an ugly domestic abuse scandal in 2010, but he redeemed himself with his Oscar-nominated 2016 war flick "Hacksaw Ridge" — and wants to keep his momentum at almost any cost, friends claim.

In the past, devout Catholic Mel slammed the use of embryonic stem cell research. But he claims the cocktail HE’S using is all right — because it uses ADULT stem cells and has been endorsed by his church. Added the friend, “Mel swears by it!”
