Meh I dunno, I’ve seen people in their 20s look like they’re 40-something. If he’s gonna spend millions then hopefully that knowledge can be used for the rest of us. He shares his protocol and all his data on his website (Blueprint). He has a huge team of doctors monitoring all his vitals, levels, etc. at the macroscopic and molecular level. And according to the data, he has reduced his epigenetic age and also reduced the rate of future aging. As for him looking creepy, it’s probably because he’s white with smooth skin (and probably doesn’t expose his skin to the sun because it will damage it, which tbh is a fair concern). If he were black or brown, people might say “black don’t crack” or something like that.
Tbh there’s a lot of cope in the comments here. Like getting older isn’t just about looking older. It’s also not being able to recover from injuries and being at higher risk of things like cancer, etc. because your cells become less efficient at killing damaged cells and regenerating healthy ones. Try being 16 and tearing a tendon vs being 40 and doing it. It’s honestly not fair, and tbh youth is kind of “wasted on the young.”
And this problem affects societies as well. Every developed nation has an aging population and the child birth rates are declining as well. I’d rather extend my youthful time on this planet than be in constant pain due to aging. If people are delaying childbirth, then having healthier parents at an older age is also nice, especially if you want to play with an active kid. And yes I know “diet, exercise, sleep” is important but tbh it sounds like a capitalist saying “you just need to buckle down and find a job.” Like I fucking know that stuff is important but it’s not gonna fix everything.
If anti-aging research was being done in Cuba or China the comments would unironically be “damn gimme some of that youth energy Xi!!!” All the angry sentiments in the comments here come off as libertarian-bro contrarianism (for contrarianism sake).
EDIT: Just to be clear, I do not support or condone exploiting young people as blood bags. I was talking about anti-aging research in general. I thought we just had a big thread about how people need to stop taking the worst possible interpretation of comments here. Jesus…
