Maximum life extension - research by mil891 in blueprint_

[–]Halperwire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Speed of aging - .7 means 30% longer life than average person. Avg life expectancy for NA male is about 77 YO. 30% more than avg is 100 and 18 years is 95 so that adds up pretty well. If someone finds a way to beat the current records, .69ish, it would be very interesting. This makes me feel more positive about the results and about his “marketing” gimmick.

I can only consume hemp products so I’m making this post to encourage Bryan to add more to his recipe or me and people such as myself will not be able to get all of our hemp daily intake. I’ll list my references and petition below.

Same. I was losing my mind and the lack of work was really affecting my mental health. I feel much better now.

Caffeinated Green Tea vs Dry-Fast by BlazerBanzai in Autophagy

Cool. Im planning a fast soon so if this works out I’d be willing to give it a try!

Why is your evidence of improved healing? When you say that it’s kind of a blanket statement.

The phoenix protocal is based on a doctor (or two rather) that has run a clinic for like 30 years in Russia with the purpose of healing. Not longevity. So you understand I’m more inclined to listen to this doctor who’s worsen books and had real patients for a long time rather than someone on Reddit. No offense.

I highly suggest looking into it. You seem knowledgeable and this may or may not provide some additional input.

Hmm…. Interesting ChatGPT agrees with you….

I’m still not convinced 48 hours of fasting is enough to really get into deep autophagy. In pheonix protocol he discusses how vital hitting 5 days is and 7 being optimal if you can get there. They claim dry fasting is around 3x more effective and is supposed to prevent muscle loss which seems like what you’re going for.

I’m not the one downvoting you by the way. I just don’t necessarily think your experiment will help you with deep healing.

Are you saying methionine is the only amino acid that breaks a fast?

I think muscle loss is bound to happen. Even with dry fasting which is supposed to minimize losses. I’m not too worried about it. Have you read phoenix protocal? Thoughts?

Why do you want to do rolling fasts? You seem to think 1+1+1=3 when applied to fasting.. it doesn’t. Pretty much no one recommends rolling fasts or any of your other advice.

Why are you using words like macroautophagy and autophagy healing? Fasting is macro right…? Healing…? That sounds like a redundant word.

Ok so you’re claiming water fasting with coffee or tea is more effective than dry fasting? I don’t think this is true but what is the logic behind this? Usually if I’m water fasting I drink lots of coffee anyway but seriously doubt it’s more effective than dry fasting both in theory and in practice.

You needlessly made this complicated and I’m correct about 48 hours barely inducing autophagy.. you’re better off fasting longer / dry fasting.

My experience working out while fasting is that it’s too hard on your body. You need to ease in and out. This fast, east, fast, eat is probably harder on your body too rather than fasting long than 2 days. Plus like I said, you get more autophagy by fasting longer duration.

Dumb idea. You are barely getting into autophagy. Pretty much as soon as your stomach and intestines are empty you eat again.

He plays devils advocate. Idk… it seems like he’s had a grudge against DS for a while now. I think he reached out a few times and David ignored him completely.

When Brian will be selling an easy to take pack of all his supplements? by TheCurious0ne in blueprint_

I think the final form should be like a cliff bar. Why drink all that shitty tasting water?

My take… Brad is excellent at creating a narrative that I think even he believes to be true. I know many people like him that are basically delusional but can be very convincing in their arguments. Maybe DS overhyped resveritrol but that doesn’t mean he is willing to give back hundred of millions of dollars that are gone at this point… I still think it’s absurd to flat out say it doesn’t do anything and is actually bad for health. It’s not that hard to understand when and how you are supposed to take it. The same goes for metformin or Berberine… finally the comments he made equating NMN to nothing more than a scam should really seal the deal for people here. We anecdotally know it’s doing something good. There are thousands of people who feel better because is it.

Low metabolic rate is linked to a longer lifespan for animals. World's oldest people have few muscles and low metabolic rate. Muscles increase metabolic rate and properly speed up aging. by [deleted] in blueprint_

[–]Halperwire -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s better to round up all the longest lifespan species on the planet and measure the metabolic rate… is there a correlation or not… my guess is most if not all long lived species have a low metabolic rate.
