The American businessman is 45 years old and lives a million dollar experiment to rejuvenate
Have you ever thought about being 18 again? Not just with appearance, but with the biological rates of the time? An American entrepreneur wants to prove that it is possible. The plan doesn’t include fantasies like stepping into a time capsule. It takes discipline and about $2 million a year or the equivalent of R$10.4 million.
A report made by “Fantástico”, from TV Globo, last Sunday (19) presents Bryan Johnson, 45, as a guinea pig in a project that aims at his rejuvenation at the age of 18. So far, the program has made progress.
To do this, he cultivates habits that make him look like a modern monk:
- Sleeps early and alone;
- Daily exercise;
- Alcohol? Zero;
- Fat? Also zero;
- No sweets;
- Maintain a vegan diet.
These are strict rules, but it is not enough to follow them. Johnson uses strategies and rituals to make the experiment efficient. For example, it’s not about having a regular time to go to bed and wake up. His method includes special lights to improve sleep quality.
The businessman also has a home clinic, where he has access to state-of-the-art procedures that can help him in his rejuvenation process. The experiment has 30 doctors, dozens of treatments and tests carried out day after day. In the midst of this, Johnson makes use of drugs and vitamins.
According to the report, her only restriction is plastic surgery, as she doesn’t want to resort to tricks that shorten the process.
The result for the entrepreneur was satisfactory. He says he lowered his biological age by at least five years. His tests confirm this by showing that his heart has returned to the rhythm of when he was 37 years old, his skin looks like that of a man at 28 and his breathing capacity is already compatible with that of an 18 year old.
Rejuvenate at what cost?
The alcohol-free, fat, and always sleeping alone lifestyle might not appeal to many fans, but Johnson points out that he enjoys it.
“People might think I’m missing out, but, in reality, I’ve chosen to be healthier. All meals are more calculated. I eat exactly 2,000 calories a day,” she says. For him, this experiment can “change the world” if it shows that it is possible not to age.
