Will Bryan Johnson solve aging in the next 20 years?

That's sad to see, dude got older with age.

No. If he doesn't O.D. on some weird psychedelic before then, he'll probably just get his stack up to about the same size mine is now.

>>77224386
Using a walker by 73 is definitely not mobility-mogging by today's standards, and a decent predictor he probably won't see 93.

My obese grandma was still walking around without a walker, gardening and shit like that in her mid 80s lol. Maybe slavic babushkas are built different but still.

I hope he suffer greatly at every single microsecond of his existence

This is a bit impressive, but fairly achievable for most people by now. One of my granddads was still doing around half-mile walks (although with a walker) at 92 b4 ACKin'. When we see 100-year-olds doing a 10-second 100-meter, then anti-aging tech will have really hit S-tier.
>>
>>77224521
go off king

>>77224521
Isn't he 6'5? That's probably the reason he's in such shit health. Lanklets always have health problems later in life.
>>
>>77224441
Eh he looks ok for a former fat.

>>77224363
No. If things go well Bryan Johnson checks all the boxes and averages age 100 with a roll-the-dice chance of hitting 120 or so. That's not magic, that's just "don't be a fat, exercise regularly, eat well, sleep well, have fuckloads of money to detect cancer and shit early, money to treat cancer and whatever"

If things go wrong he's going to harm himself with increasingly unresearched treatments and eventually fuck himself and up. He's doing psychedelics and gene editing and all sorts of shit. Honestly they're being pretty careful but if you keep rolling the dice with unknown shit that'll fuck you up in the long run.

The other thing is his own bio markers at this point aren't incredible. He's stopped being transparent with his metrics and instead selectively shares shit when it helps him. He's continuing to age, just as a relatively fit person would.

Here's a protip on a smarter strategy: find low-toxicity shit that treats cancers prophylactically. Bryan does a bit of that at least incidentally, but his efforts in that direction are not remotely close to comprehensive.
>>
You’re all fucking idiots
>>
>>77224738
Like exercise and sulforaphane and saunas, mhm. But yeah you're right. Challenging is whether the low-toxicity bit is actually worth the tradeoff
>>
>>77224755
>Like exercise and sulforaphane and saunas, mhm.
Yup, it's just that those together might get you to not quite a 50% global cancer risk reduction; diving very deep into the jewish chinkjeet herb extract assays can get you well past 90% on a massive cocktail if you're indeed sharp enough at researching toxicology and bioavailability.

one can't just 'money' their way into improved genetics bro

and you can't just out-eat or out-exercise from them either

all anyone can do is slow the process down that's best for your genes, and a good rule of thumb for that is fasting (which happens to have some overlap with oxidative stress reduction)

CRISPR-Cas9 called, says u belong in 2011.

>and you can't just out-eat or out-exercise from them either
Yeah that's pretty much epigenetic modulation right there.

>fasting
Alpha lipoic acid upregulates expression of liver exerkine FGF21, an example of higher-tier caloric restriction mimetic therapy than Bryan Johnson knows about with the off-target effect of probably being able to fix his fuck-up ears.

Well that's why I think he's just going to make it to the upper end of normal for a rich guy his age, he's not immortal nor is he going to set the world record for being old.

It's pretty obvious looking at population studies that being rich and having your shit together even just a little lets you push life expectancies into the 90s.

So yes, you can eat and exercise and money your way into living longer and generally way above average. You can't be immortal, you're not going to beat some weird fuck Greek.
>>
>>77224561
hmm, interesting. manlets have: bigger population meaning they get laid more, no problem getting into cars or doors, can sit in chairs like a normal person, and can pick up items from the floor easier. it looks like we win
>>
>>77224893
I h8 to burst ur short king bubble, but 185cm is statistically the most likely height for the most women to prefer according to muh soiyance.

I'm around that height and only have problems with small cars/chairs, can squat ass to grass and pick up heavy shit no problem. I would not want to be 5'5" or 6'5".

>>77224448
My grandpa by father was carrying sacks to feed his animals by 85. And my grandma by mother was using a walker at the same age, but she was able to walk until she died at 94. Grandpa on the other hand one day sat on his chair and lost the ability to walk. Its about keep trying, if you stop trying at old age your body will quickly degrade. Silent generation guys were stubborn as fuck, the ones that were embarrassed to use a helping aid just got chairbound, the ones who actually tried enough to use it kept mobility until they died. Never give up bros
>>
no, retards like bryan and dave asprey who think theyre gonna be the first person to live to 150 are gonna be on their deathbed in their 70s wishing they had more fun.
>>
>>77224901
>most people are short
>durr thats because tall men are getting all the pussy
cope lanklet. youre not getting pussy like we are. youre in a drought and the tall meme is just a cope. pull up to any manlet and get your face crushed by a man with the same weight as you but much shorter. (also, youll never fight either because you dont know how)

It has extremely short half-life.

First they always take the worst looking pictures for these. Second they neglect to mention the man has just had a hip replacement - ie. a major operation, you could be told to use one no matter what age you were after getting a hip replacement, it's a big thing.

In pic-related he looks absolutely fine and still kicking ass for 73 years old.
>>
>>77225075
Don't associate Bryan with Dave. Bryan is actually trying to live longer, Dave is just a run of the mill grifter without a brain.
>>
>>77224363
i bet she still rides his face even though he can't eat box anymore, just because she gets off on how much of a hunk he used to be

My near 80 year old father still goes to the gym half the days of the week, and my grandmother lived to 99 and still had all her teeth and was mobile and active.

Its the food, its the tech, its the sedentary lifestyle.
>>
>>77224441
I don't know why people still follow him when he literally broke his ankle simply dancing at a rave. Even more baffling when the average time to recover is 6-8wks and he threw the kitchen sink at it just to still recover within the average timeframe given to him by doctors.
>>
>>77226173
I follow him a bit to see if he does any new non-scammy treatments, but I eat like triple the minerals he does (other than zinc) to the point I bounced off a huge ice block uninjured after slipping and falling this winter.

The only advancement that's even close to being commercially viable is growing your own stem cells to inject back into yourself to help with chronic joint issues. The rest of the """biohacking""" and """anti-aging""" landscape is a fucking wasteland of grifter frauds and schizophrenics.

Out of all the fucking retarded shit these people take the only things actually moving the needle are roids for muscle, amphetamines for career success, and the GLP/GIP drugs for leanness. No other drug/supplement does ANYTHING positive. (HGH is a net negative for longevity and if you believe otherwise enjoy dying earlier with a smaller bank account.)

Just see https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40950238/. You can do RNP on GSTA4, induce it, and skip all that shit, mimic the downstream activity of Yamanaka factors.

>The rest of the """biohacking""" and """anti-aging""" landscape is a fucking wasteland of grifter frauds and schizophrenics.
You're only about half right. Even Bryan Johnson's stack is basically half real /sci/ and half that, fairly well representing the lanscape.

Hayley Roberts is 45 and the Hoff is older than her parents

my grandma is 86, never been the gym and doesn’t use a cane. what’s the excuse here?
