Reverse aging mogul discusses regimen as he strives for the biological age of an 18-year-old

right now is the very first time in human history where you can say with a straight face you may not die you believe that oh there's no question it's hard to believe Tech millionaire Brian Johnson is 46 years old but no matter his chronological age he's striving for the biological age of an 18-year-old his team of 30 doctors utilize all the latest tech the plan is rigorous it's actually really hard yeah it is and it Burns really fast at $2 million a year a life like this is Out Of Reach for almost everyone and this

is what I take on a daily basis of supplements it's alphabetized and we have a year supply of everything we do it's part of his quest to live forever which he believes may happen in our lifetime and what I've shown is for the very first time we could potentially think about ourselves improving at the speed of Technology on this day at his home in Los Angeles he lets us into his pricey routine and his excitement for the future of the human race I'm the first human to opt into an algorithm that takes better care of

me than I can myself he calls his all-encompassing protocol project blueprint blueprint was born out of trying to fix my own problems but then taking care of my family my kids and my parents my friends it's generated a steady churn of shock headlines he once injected himself with his son plasma I mean the way that happened is my dad is now 70 one day we were talking on the phone I said dad also there's this these plasma exchanges people have been doing that have shown some evidence that is potentially helpful for people with Cog decline

now it's still experimental it's not you know Ironclad yet but if you want to try it I'd be more than willing to offer you my plasma and my son overheard the conversation he's like Dad I'm in so he did it knowing uh full well what he was doing he recognizes how insane this all sounds the perceptions people have about blueprint and me are all wrong they think I live in a cage they think that I'm somehow deprived of Joy they think that somehow I just don't understand their Joy of pizza and donuts they think I

don't understand but I do I understand all of it I've been where that person's at I do you eat pizza and donuts I don't and you know what they sound awful to me like it would make me feel sick and I would I would feel miserable for 24 hours he wasn't always this happy or this Rich growing up in a modest Mormon household in Utah at 21 he returned from a mission trip to Ecuador and came back with one goal in mind the only thing I wanted to do with my life was trying to improve

the human race and so you set out on that mission I said okay I'm going to make a goal and make a whole bunch of money by the age of 30 with money you can mobilize things uh more effectively versus having to ask people permission for you know what they would want to do in the world so how did you make make it happen I just started building companies I then bought venmo and we got bought for just under a billion in 2013 I read that you were really unhappy during that time I was born

into a religion that's a very tight-knit it's it's basically it consumes your your entire identity and then I got married I had children I was doing a startup and those worlds kind of just combined so the lack of sleep and the grind on a startup created some depression which then deepened when I was having an exal crisis with My Religion which then you know having problems with my partner how did you get yourself out of that uh when I was 34 years old in one year's time I sold my company uh my marriage ended I

left the church and I went off to remap my whole existence welcome to the Future caution may cause loss of age as we enter Brian's clinic this uses multi-spectral Imaging and then it generates 10 data points on your skin health we see a room full of Hightech hospital grade gear chosen to measure his progress and hopefully help turn back the hands of time but Brian believes it's not about what you start doing it's what you stop instead of doing something positive stop the negative so instead of trying to choose a supplement that you want to

take stop going to bed late or stop skipping exercise so often times stopping is more powerful than starting and it's about where you may live and what you eat in blue zones we're seeing people who live below the US poverty line living about 10 years longer than Americans author Dan Butner has written extensively about so-called blue zones but says that living longer doesn't have to be so complicated we know for example people who eat beans beans are the cheapest food in the grocery store live about four years longer than people who don't eat beans so

I'd much rather see people eating beans than shooting themselves up with other people's [Music] blood Brian says his pricey investment in himself has turned back his biological clock by 5 years and he hopes to live a long life with the people he loves I'm just so happy I get to exist I'm so pleased that I'm alive and I just want to keep on playing and I hope other to too our thanks to Eva we should note thus far there's no definitive research that has proven any medicine or device can reverse the effects of aging on
