Bryan Johnson shat himself

[AION]

So sad but predictable.

He's hardly failed. This is but the beginning. He just found out about his autoimmune gastritis last month. He's gonna start heavily fighting it as well as his girlfriend's endometriosis which is a massive disease affecting like 10% of women worldwide. 

People's attacks on this guy are disturbing. Not that long ago one of the leading forms of medicine was to bleed people so that the balance of humors(bodily fluids) in their body could be restored. That's partly how George Washington died. Soon enough our current medical practices will look just as barbaric.

 Medicine makes wild progress in very little time and are many massive initiatives worldwide lead by different people to work on curing all diseases within the next decades. AI's recent recursive learning breakthroughs lead me to believe this will inevitably end in major success for humanity.

For once we agree!

Tampering with billions of years of evolution is not a healthy idea.

We are part of evolution silly. Unless you aren't using a computer or phone like I am but are using a smoke signal or telepathy to write forum posts then you truly have transcended my level.

Nothing to do with what I said.

How could counteracting the actions of the endocrine system and the body in general promote longevity

He thinks he is smarter than millions of years of evolution because he read and interpreted a study with his puny human mind.

@Schizophonia

That’s actually a very fair objection. If someone just blindly throws synthetic compounds at their endocrine system to override natural feedback loops, they usually wreck their health and we see that all the time with uncalibrated biohacking like our friend Connor Murphy for example. 

Where the nuance lies with Bryan Johnson is that he isn't guessing or relying on human intuition alone. He's running constant bio-markers, blood panels, and organ imaging, effectively treating the body like an engineering system with a feedback loop. Modern medicine itself—from antibiotics to surgery—is technically "counteracting" natural evolutionary outcomes (like dying from a routine infection at 30).

It’s definitely a high-risk pioneer path, but I think the real-time data approach is what separates him from standard bro-science.

But surgery and antibiotics work towards homeostasis (killing bacteria, repairing tissues…). They just do it even more efficiently.

What I'm looking for are supplements that alter the endocrine balance.

 

But I'm being picky here to inflate my ego lol we understand each other yes.
