Bryan Johnson sold his company to PayPal for $800 million in 2013.

Since then, he's been investing millions to reduce aging.

In 2021, he reduced his epigenetic age by 5.1 years in 7 months (World Record)

Here’s a breakdown of his “Blueprint” and my own experience with it: 🧵

@bryan_johnson created "Project Blueprint".

It aims to measure all 70+ organs of Bryans's body and then reverse the biological age of each as much as possible.

Bryan reduced his epigenetic age by 5.1 years in 7 months by following it.

From age 47 to 42.5.

How did he do it?

Examples Third Meals

Step 2: Supplements

Bryan takes about 25 pills everyday

Step 3: Track progress.

Bryan has had 100s of measurements taken.

Some are standard, such as biofluids and fitness scores.
Some are advanced, such as MRI and ultrasound.
And some uncommon, such as lungs, nerves, hearing, and intestinal tract.

But the blueprint is more than food and supplements.

It's also a combination of daily exercise, great sleep, and a skincare routine.

My experience.

Under the guidance of a health coach, personal trainer & mobility specialist I got the below modified plan:

Supplement & Workout routine

I got to be on the diet for 3 months and definitely enjoyed it and felt good on it.

This is my variant of nutty pudding. Using dried zucchini and sometimes dried tomatoes. Tastes amazing!

I’ve been getting interest on which doctors, nutritionist & movement exercises can help implement this program.

If you are one of the above please DM me and I’ll release a list of those that can help people implement blueprint!
