Longevity-Obsessed Tech Millionaire Discontinues De-Aging Drug Out of Concerns That It Aged Him

The tech centimillionaire, who is known for taking droves of wellness supplements, has backtracked on one of his special pills.

Summary

Bryan Johnson, a 46-year-old tech multimillionaire focused on anti-aging, stopped using rapamycin—a supplement he took for five years—after research suggested it might accelerate aging.

Johnson cited side effects like skin infections and glucose issues, as well as findings from a recent study showing rapamycin could worsen epigenetic aging.

Known for extreme anti-aging experiments, Johnson also created the health startup Blueprint, which markets pricey supplements.

His controversial methods, including teenage blood transfusions and genital shock treatments, have raised skepticism about their effectiveness and safety.

    What an interesting happenstance. You’ve inserted yourself into a comment reply, argued with me and yet you seem to be having difficulty understanding what the conversation revolves around.

    Good luck to you.

      In what world was that an argument? Lol, good luck to you Mr. “If he dies you’re already long dead” guy.

      Here’s an actual argument:

      1. He isn’t even a billionaire
      2. If society completely collapses I kind of doubt people will care about the armed guard job and instead will just club the rich assholes over the head and steal their resources
