@bryan_johnson@Selkis_2028 Not that simple… what about the positive benefits one gets from taking a trip like this and what is the end price from taking vs not taking. Way too many individual variables to factor in
David Sinclair's lab is using AI to build a pill that reverses aging for $100.
Right now, their gene therapy costs roughly $10 million to manufacture. It requires a direct injection into the target organ.
That's not going to work for 8 billion people.
So Sinclair's team made a breakthrough. They found that the three age-reversal genes aren't the only path to resetting cells.
They discovered CHEMICALS that do the same thing.
In mice, they can now give an animal a liquid — not genes, not injections, a drink — and rejuvenate tissues in 4 weeks.
Sinclair says it's now normal for his students to casually report: "We just rejuvenated the ear. We just rejuvenated the skin. We just cured ALS (motorneuron disease) in these animals."
He calls his lab "Willy Wonka's chocolate factory" because the discoveries blow him away every week.
But he wants one molecule that does everything. So they used AI to screen 8 BILLION candidates. They're now down to three molecules that work. And they're using AI to try to combine all three into one.
The gene therapy could cost over $100,000 per treatment. Sinclair's goal: "What if it could be $100 instead? That's what I'm working for. I want to democratize this technology so anyone even in Kenya can take these medicines."
They should know within a year or two if the molecules work in mice.
The gene therapy is the proof of concept.
The pill is the endgame.

@bryan_johnson Get a shepinois (Belgian Malinois X German Shepherd) best dogs ever. Very high drive, Athletic, fearless and just a tad less psycho than a pure bred malinois.
@DrSuneelDhand I float to 3 different ER’s. Never once had a patient with GLP-1 complications. Not saying they are without risk, but surely if they were as prevalent as you say I would have had at least ONE patient…
No placebo group, only 59 participants (mostly white/highly educated/moderate depression/low suicide risk), only a 6 week trial (SSRI can take 8+ weeks needing dose adjustments), those that might be genetically vulnerable run the risk of developing a severe mental illness that includes psychosis. While psychedelics may have their place in a highly controlled environment with careful screening, it’s not without risk. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy should be priority over both. Guess you have to ask yourself is the juice worth the squeeze.
@MJTruthUltra No, Putin doesn’t do it because he knows that everyone will then start launching them and the world will be a radiation filled dust ball. Doesn’t take a genius to know this..
