I feel like this is missing the part where the FDA just shut down Ambrosia.

Check out their site. It's just a note "In compliance with the FDA announcement issued February 19, 2019, we have ceased patient treatments."

That's creepy to associate young people's blood plasma with nectar of the gods.

Well the nectar of the gods made you immortal if you ate/drank it, right? So it seems appropriate considering what they purported to be selling.

Hence the word purported and not “are selling”. We’re in agreement here, sounds like snake oil to me.
