Man who became ‘10 years younger’ by following Bryan Johnson’s age-reversal plan reveals its downsides
A man claimed that Bryan Johnson’s age-reversal plan helped him look like an 18-year-old at 28. He also revealed the protocol's downsides.
A co-founder shared a post on X about his journey of following Bryan Johnson's Blueprint, a longevity protocol aimed at reversing biological ageing. The man, who goes by Max G, claimed that after two years of following the plan, his biomarkers show him 10 years younger than his chronological age. In a post on the thread, he also revealed the downsides of following the protocol.

“Almost 2 years on @bryan_johnson's Blueprint: in 2023: always tired, carb-loading, night owl habits. In 2024: turned things around, focused on health & longevity. 2025: 10 YEARS YOUNGER biologically (18 vs 28) with 90% of all biomarkers in optimal ranges,” Max G wrote.
