Bryan Johnson began his life as an entrepreneur, buying, selling, and growing companies like Venmo to build a healthy living for himself. Several years ago, he became fascinated with the idea of maximizing human technology to extend the length and quality of one's life as far as possible. Today, he lives as the most tested man in the world at the center of "Project Blueprint", where drawing on his access to wealth and resources, he pushes the boundaries of human existence to see if he can become the oldest person of all time. As someone who has pushed back quite strongly against biohacking and "optimizing" one's health beyond homeostasis, I was fascinated to ask Bryan about his approach to life and fact-check him on a few of his theories.

The problem is that he is using a lot of stuff all the time. He can be measured as often as he wants, but if something positive changes through a new drug you cannot tell if it was really through that drug or treatment or if it was the combined effect of all stuff together and every one thing alone wouldn't'd do anything, or he has started a new treatment a month ago, then the next one, something good happens, everyone thinks it was the second treatment, but it was the first or the one before just acting a little late. I don't think that what he is doing is clinically viable and can only lead to traces of new knowledge.

@zenzen4982 24 күн бұрын

There was an older comment that kinda answers this: """ A part of the debate around this guy's lifestyle that doesn't get discussed enough is his unique situation to do all this. And I don't mean just the fact he can afford it, which he does talk about. I mean that he had the time in his day, this is basically his job at this point. So he's less having to trade his free time for his health and longevity dedication like most of us would. He gets to still have free time for things he enjoys like family. This changes the quality vs quantity debate quite a lot. """ My personal take: It is admirable that he does something to advance the species, at the same time it highlights how enormously unacceptable it has become to be poor. Charlie Chaplin said something along the the lines: "As long as tyrants still die there is hope.". It is a lot easier to accept that most people never get to live their dreams, that competition for the sake of competition in a capitalistic system is moot, as long as we share the same fate. He is a trailblazer and I think the hate is motivated by people that would love to explore with him, but society isn't set up for this currently. Even he has to treat this as a business as no-one can predict how long modern slavery will continue.

@@peterhel1077 yeah, sleeping well doesn't come for free through. If you are crammed into a slum and the only way out is work that will destroy your body, so you really gotta pick your poison, because your mentally ill single parent left you nothing but debt and ruined your education. 1/7 children in Japan live below the poverty line and that is a society with relatively little inequality. Again, personally I think it is good that someone is doing what he does, highlighting the inequality in society comes with the territory and the hate he gets is misplaced, but will hopefully lead to having the grossest inequalities reexamined. I just image that is the reason for the hate, personally I haven't seen much of it, might be best to ask the people infuriated?

I am 100% with Bryan on the importance of sleep, and I have used my Whoop strap to figure out what things affect my sleep. I'm still working on improvements.

@AgentOrange96 2 күн бұрын

I use sleep trackers as well, and I do find them useful. I'd say in response to Dr. Mike's point that you'll know if you slept shitty without one, this is true. And I am definitely a better judge of how I slept or how rested I am than my sleep trackers. But I think the insights they can provide are useful in addition to how I feel. For example, if I'm not well rested, what can the data tell me? Maybe my depth of sleep appears to be poor (a big issue for me by the looks of it) or some sleep trackers can detect sleep apnea. Then it becomes a matter of how can I improve this. I think there is a tendency for some to over rely on technology, and I think that's problematic and cause harm. (I've definitely seen bad data on my sleep trackers, but I usually know why.) But for the right mindset, it can be a good supplemental tool.

The other way of looking at the value of life is to compare life lengths --- if you had the choice of two life lengths - one much longer and one much shorter - would you (or anyone) choose the much shorter lifespan because its shorter length implies that it's more valuable? Let me give you my answer: I would choose the longer life every day and twice on Sundays.

@Brian-oz8io 25 күн бұрын

This particular ideology is dependent on technology changing everything and stopping aging and eventually solving most (or all) of our problems. If we hypothetically assume that to be the case, the idea would be that if you live long enough you’ll get to experience completely new things that haven’t yet been thought of. You might also get to do all the things you want to do now (that you feel might increase your quality of life) and more For example: If we had complete control over our biology in the future, you might get to eat all those potato chips or whatever else you wanted to do and it wouldn’t matter anymore. So the quality of life you have now wouldn’t seem like a big deal. If you lived 500 years, you’d probably look back and say “wow the first 40 years of my life weren’t exactly what I wanted, but these last 300 have been awesome.” This part of your life would probably seem like less than a prologue For some people, I guess those possibilities are worth making some sacrifices

I would love to see Bryan's work expand to mental health and trauma. I think there is sooooo much humans have to cope with that negatively impacts their health, literally impacting things like immune response, breathing, etc. and to the best of my knowledge, nobody is bridging the gap here either. I would especially like to see this with children/people who grow up in the foster care or group home situations; a massive percentage of these people end up living on the streets and having severe addictions at frighteningly young ages. Nobody can simply just tell those people to sleep more or eat better; the absence of parental and societal love has deep, deep impacts. Imagine somebody could say, "so, you went through [insert trauma here], which resulted in x and *this is how we fix that* "! So few people have access to affordable, quality therapy that supports not only the mental & emotional well being but also tracks things physically to determine physical effects. Healthcare is still far too much of a piecemeal model with specialists not talking to one another and the patient kept largely out of the loop. Maybe one day Bryan will be minister of Health in some part of the world. I wonder what he'd do in a role like that. Anyway, lovely and intriguing interview. :)

I guess my thought process was that the average person, working full time, spending all additional time focusing on things to “live forever” may interfere with other pieces of happiness such as family time, friend time, alone time, activities, whatever it may be. And again, that’s generalized, there are lots of variables to what would make someone happy in life. 🤷‍♀️

He's open to his guest's perspectives, really examines their arguments, asks probing questions, and doesn't let the conversation get too derailed if his guests subconsciously fallback on the same tired script because he's identified a point they don't have a good argument against. It leads to such interesting conversations, and I always feel like I better understand his guests perspectives, even though I still might not agree with them.

Exactly what Lilium said. Almost nothing to be learned also since what he is doing is trying things that are already in research. The actual research takes hundreds and even thousands of people to figure out if it has a positive correlation to the lifespan and quality. For example even though there is so much research on the heart medicines of today, still doing meta research on the hundreds of studies reveals that it is not so cut and dry if they are good or not. Doing research on one single person is for nothing, when research done on hundreds of thousands if millions of people has difficulty revealing the truth. Not to say he can't prove it for himself. That he can do but to say it will work for everyone is pretty ballsy.

Such an incredibly respectful and information rich interview. I can totally relate from 49:46 regarding not wanting a “cheat day”. I know that drinking red wine makes me feel like trash and I can’t sleep at all, where a glass of white at dinner occasionally doesn’t affect me. I know that eating any fast food, deep fried things, sugar, large amounts of bread and dairy, messes with my tummy and make me feel bloated, nauseous and just groggy for at least 3 days. I know that eating a lot of vegetables, certain fruits and lean proteins energize me and help with good sleep. I know that fasting 1-2 days of the week is good for me, not only for religious reasons but also because I feel rejuvenated, more productive and can focus my attention on other important things such as work, praying and spending time with loved ones. So why on earth would I put myself through the pain of having a MacDonalds burger and fries, or a Domino’s pizza, or a glass of red wine at dinner when 1) they don’t even taste very great and 2) I know exactly what I’m getting myself into.

I appreciate your efforts

@KidarWolf Ай бұрын

Hi, I just wanted to chime in as a "live fast, die young" sort of person, and give my own perspective, without judgement of your own view. For me, there was very much a consideration of long term consequences, and of potential long term consequences. I was a stunt performer, and my body has absolutely paid the price for that. I ache in places I didn't even know I had until I started aching in them, daily life can be challenging, I walk with the swagger of a man old enough to be my father, rather than that of a younger man. What I got in exchange for the physical challenges in my present day, is mental resilience - the knowledge that I can go through difficult things, difficult moments, whether those are excruciating pain, or a more restricted life as a result of injury or illness caused reductions in overall function, and that while things might never be the same as they were before, I will eventually find a new comfortable and happy normal that is physically, mentally, and emotionally fulfilling. In many ways, I prioritized my mental and emotional health over my physical health in being a stunt performer. For me, personally, that has felt like the right choice. While yes, every day is a physical challenge, I snap, crackle and pop more than a bowl of Rice Krispies, and anything that has me standing in one spot for too long can incapacitate me for days afterwards, it has also encouraged me, sometimes painfully, to respect that a body needs rest, but that doesn't mean the mind has to rest. On bad days, I read, I play tabletop roleplaying games, I write, I paint, I draw - things that require minimal physical effort, but give great emotional and mental fulfilment. If I had the opportunity to go back, and make a different choice, I wouldn't, because the person I am today is far more compassionate of my own needs, and far more mentally and emotionally resilient, than I was prior to being a stunt performer. My path was right for my development. The same is also true for someone who is risk averse and chooses a life of low risk - their path is right for them. We're not all the same, and it is the incredible variety of humanity that has been our greatest asset for species survival.

what an absolute masterclass on both ends. The right questions were asked by Dr.Mike and Bryan was open. Both discussing the subject calmly while putting their opinions/experiences on the table in a transparent way, even if they colide at times. Another great interview from Dr.Mike

He has a low body fat % for the purpose of living longer. If you measure any metric other than visuals, he is extremely healthy.

I love how Brian really takes time to think, he's so authentic and intentional, I dont see an ego behind his eyes just waiting to counter, he's great

I hope that in my life I'll become as good as you both are at investigating reality and thinking critically and find other people with that ability to have equally good conversations. Great episode!
