It was true. There were no old people, only children and adults. He also
informed us that his people didn’t age or die. That life is continuous. They
grow up to about the equivalent of 25 of our years and then they stop. They
do suffer accidents though, and bleed, and feel pain, but their bodies are
capable of regenerating very quickly. Their world is free from harmful
bacteria, and if any traveler were to bring any back from far away places,
such bacteria would be exterminated before making contact with Kaa’s
surroundings. While the travelers, the Nos, are visiting planet Earth, or
CRIO, they try to avoid contact with harmful bacteria and germs as much
as possible.
In this sense, the creatures that they create, the oemores, are very useful. If
for any reason they come in contact with harmful components to their
human bodies, they are genetically capable of fighting these without the
need of vaccines or medicine. However, this doesn’t mean they don’t suffer
the discomfort that comes with said bacteria and germs. According to him,
their bodies are capable of creating all kinds of antibodies that attack and
destroy instantly anything that threatens their physiological systems. Their
bodies posses a gland, which we also have, that secretes a series of
substances that make them immune to sickness, after being affected one
initial time. He also told us that our own bodies didn’t function correctly
because of the lack of balance and equilibrium that for generations we have
prolonged. Generation after generation we have polluted our bodies with
so many chemical substances that our bodies don’t operate properly. Every
time we take in more of these substances, either through food, medicine or
illegal drugs, we keep getting weaker, regardless of any alleged advance in
our medical sciences.
