Bryan Johnson, who gulps down 54 pills for breakfast, ditches longevity drug rapamycin. Here's why
Bryan Johnson, the 47-year-old tech entrepreneur who has spent millions on his quest to reverse his biological age, has ditched taking a medicine that he had been taking for years to increase his longevity. The millionaire, who gulps down 54 pills for breakfast, recently discovered a wrinkle in his meticulous approach to dodging death.
In his attempt to live' forever', the tech millionaire consumes 13 milligrams of the immunosuppressant rapamycin, which transplant patients take to help prevent organ rejection. However, the US Food and Drug Administration has not approved rapamycin for anti-aging therapy, but physicians have been prescribing it off-label because it has been shown to extend the healthy lifespan of mice.
Johnson, who undertook the «most aggressive rapamycin protocol of anyone in the industry», said it may have done more harm than good.
