I've recently been researching the organic molecule amygdalin and discovered that it has been used as a cancer drug. One of the unfortunate circumstances that causes it to be banned as a drug by the FDA is the increased toxicity of the HCN product when mixed with ascorbic acid. Any ideas how to counteract this?

I don't mean that evolution had a specific "design" I simply meant through evolutions trial and error that the current "design" of organisms are intended to die. Mr.skeptic is also correct in stating that we don't actually age. Aging is a side effect of the deterioration of our cells.

Humans are categorical creatures by nature, and as such we simply enjoy the organization of systems to their simplest form.

Immortality is but a vain ambition of us, a more advanced species. The whole purpose as an organism is to die. If organisms weren't designed by evolution to die then then there would be no purpose for this thought to even pass through minds. But it does. Organisms are meant to die because if they did not do so then organisms would not be able to evolve, and species such as ours would not exist and all life as we know it would not exist.
