30 DAYS OF $2M/YEAR PROTOCOL – HERE ARE THE RESULTS.

Would you like if aging was just an option? Every day, new research pushes the boundaries of our understanding of aging. Bryan Johnson claims to have reversed his biological age by 31 years thanks to a strict protocol that blends nutrition, supplementation, and medical data.

💪 Dear Wonderwomen and Supermen,

Thirty days of rigor, self-denial, and extreme discipline—just to roll back the clock. When a journalist volunteered to follow a radical biohacking routine initially created by tech millionaire Bryan Johnson, the expectations were moderate, and skepticism was high.

But after just one month, the results spoke louder than doubts: noticeable physical transformation and measurable reversal of biological aging.

Could this experiment hold valuable clues for anyone striving to live longer and healthier, or is it simply an expensive illusion? Dive into this compelling case study and uncover the science-backed truths behind reversing your biological clock.

SPOTLIGHT

Bryan Johnson, former founder of Braintree/Venmo, spends nearly $2 million a year to reverse his biological age. His “Blueprint” program compiles thousands of scientific studies to offer a rigorous protocol. It includes a calibrated plant-based diet, over 100 daily supplements, daily workouts, intermittent fasting, and constant biomarker tracking. A journalist from the Hard Reset series followed the routine for 30 days with discipline. The goal: observe quantifiable effects on health and biological aging. The verdict? Despite the constraints, the results are real. Here are the key takeaways from this immersion.

The Details :

  • A data-driven protocol, not desire-driven : Blueprint is based on eliminating free will in favor of serving the organs. Johnson claims his mind no longer decides—his organs do, guided entirely by data. The protocol was developed with 30 doctors and aims for perfect adherence with zero deviation, promoting complete automation of self-care.

  • Nutrition: strict, plant-based, and monotonous : Bryan’s daily meals include Green Giant, Super Veggie, Nutty Pudding—all eaten within a 6-hour window. Everything is weighed and packed with polyphenols, fiber, plant-based protein, and antioxidants. He describes the food as boring but filling. His diet excludes caffeine, alcohol, and processed products. Why? The goal is to reduce inflammation and optimize metabolic markers.

  • Supplements: an arsenal of 100 + pills : The plan includes over 100 daily supplements: collagen, spermidine, NAC, creatine, zinc, omega-3, and more. This routine costs him around $1,000/month. While some of these supplements have solid evidence, others remain experimental. So far, the results are subjective but noticeable! For instance, his skin appears brighter, and his body odor changed—probably due to the minerals.

  • Physiological results after 30 days : After the test, he lost 20 lbs (around 9 kg). His triglycerides dropped from 300 to 70, and LDL from 126 to 92. His VO2 Max increased by 2.2 points, and his biological age dropped from 36 to 33. In short, clear improvements were noted in cardiovascular, metabolic, and body composition markers. Although 30 days is a short time, the trends are promising.

  • Psychology & Limits: discipline or deprivation ? : Despite the monotony, the protocol wasn’t unbearable. It was even described as liberating, helping eliminate impulsive decisions. However, the social constraints, cost, and time commitment make it hard to generalize. For the author, the key lies in personalized adaptation.

Key takeaway 😀

Though restrictive and monotonous, the journalist described the protocol not as torture, but rather as oddly liberating—removing the burden of constant decision-making. Yet the extreme social limitations, high costs, and substantial daily commitment make this routine difficult to maintain long-term or generalize.

Ultimately, the balance between rigor and adaptability proved critical to sustainable longevity practices.

💭 “Biological age are tests unreliable”

 FALSE… but nuanced

Tests like DunedinPACE or GrimAge use scientifically validated epigenetic markers to estimate aging speed. While no test is perfect, they provide valuable indicators—especially when repeated and combined with other measures (DEXA scans, VO2 Max, blood panels). According to a study published in Nature Aging (2021), some biological age tests are more predictive of mortality than chronological age. Use them wisely—but don’t dismiss them.

TIMELESS WISDOM
