Why I Take 100+ Pills Every Day

hi my name is Brian Johnson and I am a professional Rejuvenation athlete like Magellan who circumnavigated the globe or Shackleton that tried to Traverse the South Pole I am a modern day Explorer searching for the Fountain of Youth not for the purpose of living indefinitely but so that we can each be our very best self and as part of this journey I take a lot of supplements [Music] my team and I set out to ask the question what is possible right now with slowing our speed of aging and reversing it to do that we've designed a protocol for sleep and exercise and diet and also 111 supplements in this video we're going to explain to you what I take when I take them and why I've spent millions of dollars building this protocol and I've shared it all freely it's important I share with you that before you do anything you should probably speak with your doctor yeah a lot of people are pretty confused that I can take this many supplements any given day for example this is my morning pills if I end up dying from taking pills this guy is gonna be the culprit all my pills are put in these tins and my team does this once every two weeks so we do 28 tins at a time it's easier to batch process all this and these tins make it very easy to transport around the number of pills we take changes on a regular basis sometimes 111 sometimes it's 104. it depends upon what data we receive so we have a protocol put in place we do a whole bunch of measurements we look at the data and we determine whether it's appropriate to continue just completely eliminate some pills I take I take every day sometimes I take them twice a day sometimes I take once every two weeks for example rapamycin so each pill has a different frequency and a different protocol so every morning upon waking I take these 60 plus pills you can find on my website a list of all of these I'm going to walk you through a few of them this is ashwagandha it helps with anti-anxiety improved cortisol management improve sleep and increase testosterone 600 milligrams once a day it says calcium Alpha ketoglutarate I'm sorry what calcium Alpha ketoglutarate I take it for an improved fertility Index this is EPA it's good for liver enzymes the arteries we are watching and measuring for DHA production as I'm on caloric restriction 500 milligrams of cocooflavanols it's for heart and brain health this is hyaluronic acid 300 milligrams a day for joint health garlic I take for liver enzymes and cholesterol management I also eat garlic as part of my super veggie on a daily basis the creature is repelled by garlic turmeric one gram a day I take it for inflammation joints and liver I've yet to choke on pills although I think several haters are hoping that I that I choke on the pills it'll be pretty ironic so I'm going to show you how I take them about 20 ounces of water so typically I'll just do it about three different goes first one down second one I'm not even sure what happens in my mouth you know just like I just put it in it's like all right everyone get in line we're gonna go down this is it last one here we go that was 43 of the 100 I take on a given day before bed I take DHEA and my melatonin supplement melatonin specifically I get a lot of questions on so my team has looked the evidence behind melatonin they think it's relevant for me to take so I do so we measure things accordingly what I have found in my efforts of trying to become a professional Rejuvenation athlete is almost no anti-aging scientist agrees with another anti-aging scientist they all have their different opinions so what I take is based upon my team's analysis the evidence and the measurements we get for my body it's why we generate hundreds of biomarkers we're trying to see if what we're doing is working or not here is our supplement Supply Closet I'd say it's uh personally extremely satisfying where you see the structure and organization of what we're doing and then you get a test result and you see the actual effect in the body it's really a satisfying process the 111 pills I take daily now are around 11 that's per day and the objective of blueprint is to be on the frontier of slowing my speed of aging and reversing aging damage so these are not required for everyone this is just a a template of if somebody wants to be on the outer edge of the frontier this is the best we're doing right now if you look at the thousands of measurements we've taken over two years and ran our process from evidence to protocol to data continually all the data is telling the same story I'm potentially the most measured person in human history and so that's interesting where you say there's a bunch of opinions about health and wellness about what to eat what not to eat what supplements to take and then you have this where we just have this enormous amount of data and these results some other criticisms people will make is they'll say okay he takes a hundred pills therefore that means his diet is garbage or they'll say that means that a vegan diet is bad or it means that he needs meat or it means that blueprint is agnostic and so blueprint says nothing about plants or meat is simply a process to say we can look at evidence we can design a protocol we can look at data and so I am a vegan by choice not by necessity so if somebody can achieve this without supplements wonderful this is not a situation where blueprint is pro supplements as the only way of doing things it's a way of doing things do you need to take 100 pills a day to be healthy no you can do so many of the basics like sleep and exercise and just having a good diet and getting the majority of benefits hey everyone I hope you enjoyed this video I really enjoyed making it I'm happy I didn't choke on the pills on camera that would have been really embarrassing I hope it's helpful I hope it pushes the conversation forward in a productive way if you want to learn more about it watch this next video
