Documents from the Young Blood Institute obtained by
The National ENQUIRER reveal the former “

When the trial concludes on Jan. 23, 2068, Suzanne will be 121 years old! The ENQUIRER has learned she and her fellow human guinea pigs plan to use the treatments to “rejuvenate” their aging cells by swapping out older blood for younger blood.

“Suzanne is
desperate to extend her life as long as possible,” spilled a source. “She believes that one way she can do it is in the blood — young blood!” But while the treatments sound like a plot from a horror flick, the company insists its procedures are more dogma than Dracula.

It’s the latest in Suzanne’s endless stream of
schemes to cheat Father Time. Over the years, she’s

“I call it ‘filling the tank,’ and I expect to live past 100!” But mainstream medical experts have branded some of her ideas as snake oil. After her book “Ageless” was published in 2007, doctors issued a public letter slamming certain ideas in it as “scientifically unproven and dangerous.”
