Dr. Ana Aslan & GH3

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ana Aslan
Ana Aslan (born 1 January 1897, in Brăila -died 20 May 1988, in Bucharest) was a Romanian biologist and physician of Armenian origin. She is considered to be a founding figure of gerontology and geriatrics in Romania. In 1952, under the leadership of Prof. Dr. Ana Aslan, the Geriatric Institute in Bucharest was founded. This Institute was the first of its kind in Romania and was recognized by the World Health Organization.
The remainder of this page concerns a product marketed by Aslan. A thorough review of biomedical research literature shows no empirical or peer-reviewed evidence that this product, under any formulation, prevents or postpones any aspect of aging. Further, there is evidence that the pharmaceutical ingredients of this product pose the risk of respiratory and cardiovascular complications, as well as a risk of serious systemic allergic reactions.
The Gerovital H3 concept was introduced for the first time in 1957, in Verona, Italy, on the occasion of the 4th International Gerontology Congress. Many scientists from the USA , Germany , England, Japan, Italy, Austria and Romania have studied and confirmed the effects of the Gerovital H3 treatment suggested by Prof. Dr. Ana Aslan.[citation needed] In the 60’s the Gerovital H3 treatment became viewed by many to be a scientific certitude (which, readers should note, is an oxymoron, though certainly pedantic enough to appear credible to consumers), a high value anti-aging treatment.[citation needed]
Notables such as French President Charles De Gaulle, U.S. President John F. Kennedy, West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, Chinese Chairman Mao Zedong, and Vietnamese Chairman Ho Chi Minh traveled to Romania to attempt to benefit from this anti-aging therapy.[citation needed] Other well-known people, including actresses Marlene Dietrich, Lillian Gish, the Gabor sisters, actors Charlie Chaplin and Kirk Douglas, and artist Salvador Dalí followed the same path.[citation needed]. Once discovered by these celebrities, Gerovital itself became famous and is now used in over twenty countries around the world for its claimed anti-aging properties.[citation needed]
Ana Aslan’s research activity received many international distinctions, for example:
  • “Cross of Merit” – First Class of the Order of Merit, Germany, 1971
  • “Cavalier de la Nouvelle Europe” Prize Oscar, Italy, 1973
  • “Les Palmes Academiques”, France, 1974
  • “honorary Foreign Citizen and Honorary Professor of Sciences”, Philippines , 1978
  • “Member Honoris Causa” Diploma of the Bohemo-Slovakian Society of Gerontology, 1981
  • “Leon Bernard” Prize, important distinction granted by the World Health Organization upon nomination and endorsement by officials of a member state (in this case by the Romanian Nicolae Ceauşescu) for contributing to the development of gerontology and geriatrics, 1982
The Gerovital H3 was claimed to be a revolutionary medicine and many people are trying nowadays to profit from its name by marketing derivative drugs.
Counter arguments to the positive effects of the drug are often based on the fact that drugs containing procaine, as does the original GH3, are not approved by the FDA.
Besides the Gerovital H3 Medicine, Ana Aslan also developed Anti Aging cosmetics lines. The original recipes for the preparation of the cosmetics are still respected today by Farmec (Romanian Company), which received the rights from Ana Aslan to produce the Gerovital cosmetics.
The Gerovital cosmetics products include several lines for skin care, hair care, eye care etc. Some of the cosmetics lines produced by Farmec from the original Ana Aslan recipes are: Gerovital H3, Gerovital Plant and Aslavital.
The Cosmetics do not have anything to do with the procaine drugs, are made of natural plant extracts, produced to high quality standards and are generally approved. (also by the FDA)
