That Tech Guy Who Used His Son as a Blood Boy Is Hawking Supplements Now

Do you retrieve Bryan Johnson, the 47-year-old task capitalist who wants to accidental arsenic young arsenic imaginable for arsenic agelong arsenic possible? The feline who uses his son’s blood successful that effort? Well, he’s got a enactment of supplements. And helium says they’re the bee’s knees.

“I spent $50,000 past period unsocial investigating foods for dense metals, toxins and nutritional density and tin corroborate what Chamath is saying: the American nutrient proviso is egregiously unhealthy,” Johnson wrote Sunday connected X.

Chamath, successful this case, is referring to Chamath Palihapitiya, the task capitalist and co-host of the All-In podcast, who wrote implicit the play astir however helium thought nutrient was conscionable healthier successful Italy than successful the U.S. Not due to the fact that helium was eating thing with little abdominous oregon calories. Palihapitiya believes there’s thing much insidious going connected with the U.S. nutrient supply. And Johnson took the accidental to tout his marque of supplements, known arsenic Blueprint.

“It took america (Blueprint) 18 months to physique retired an full nutrient proviso chain, vetting each vendor and investigating each ingredient,” Johnson continued. “All 3rd enactment laboratory results are shared publicly. It’s specified a alleviation to person cognition of what I’m putting into my body. It’s worthy noting that we’ve been investigating “healthy” ingredients, not adjacent accelerated nutrient oregon junk nutrient which I’m guessing is simply a batch worse.”

Johnson, who made his wealth selling his institution Braintree to PayPal backmost successful 2013, is obsessed with aging, to accidental the least. And it’s truly nary astonishment erstwhile a feline with utmost wealthiness (Johnson is worthy an estimated $400 cardinal according to Fortune) decides that helium wants to unrecorded forever.

Johnson wrote “MAHA,” which stands for Make America Healthy Again. And helium truly seems to mean it. When asked successful the comments connected X astir the meeting, Johnson said helium and Kennedy “worked out, ate Nutty Pudding, and completed biologic property tests.” Nutty Pudding, of course, is simply a merchandise Johnson sells connected his website.

It’s unclear what interaction Johnson and his ideas of eternal beingness mightiness person connected the national government, particularly if he’s buddies with Kennedy. Will Medicare halt paying for life-saving crab drugs truthful that we tin each get connected encephalon pills and longevity powders?

An effort to scope Johnson done his website didn’t instantly person a response. Gizmodo volition update this station if we perceive back.
