Millionaire Bryan Johnson is spending the modest sum of $2,000,000 a year to live until he is 120 years old.
Yes, you read that right ¡two million dollars!
I decided to spend an entire day researching his longevity plan and I bring you the economical version so you can also try it without breaking the piggy bank.
What Bryan has achieved with his routine is astonishing:
- He has slowed down aging by the equivalent of 31 years.
- He reduced his biological age by 21 years in just 5 months (from 42 to 21).
- He accumulates aging damage more slowly than 88% of 18-year-olds.
I am passionate about the idea of not aging so fast; I wanted to see how I could mimic his method in my daily life without spending a fortune.
After many hours of research, this is what I found about what Bryan Johnson does and how to achieve it without spending that fortune:
Supplements
This is where things get a little crazy. Bryan takes 104 pills every day.
Yes, it looks like a traveling pharmacy, but I've narrowed the list down to just three that might interest you:
- Resveratrol
- NMN powder
- N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine
These supplements have shown promising effects on anti-aging, cognitive longevity, and cellular productivity.
Diet
Bryan's diet is intense:
- 10% calorie restriction.
- Intermittent fasting.
- 2,250 calories a day.
- Vegan food in 3 meals.
Since I don’t plan to give up my milk and my good steak, I decided to only implement the basics:
- Intermittent fasting in the morning.
- Add nutritious vegetables to most of my meals (broccoli, lentils, etc.).
- 10% calorie restriction (you can calculate this with apps like MyFitnessPal).
Exercise
Bryan exercises for at least one hour a day, 7 days a week. His workouts include:
- Bodyweight movements.
- High-intensity interval training.
- High-repetition weightlifting exercises.
To care for his joints, he spends 10 minutes stretching before each session. Here’s my version:
- Morning walks with my dog before the kids wake up.
- 3-5 days a week of weightlifting in the garage.
- Bodyweight exercises like pull-ups and leg raises.
Dream
Bryan has a nighttime routine that can last up to an hour. It's no wonder he has achieved a 100% sleep performance for six consecutive months! Here I share my basics for a good night's sleep:
- Sleep in a cool, dark room.
- Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.
- Nighttime with family to relax.
Although Bryan uses melatonin as a sleep supplement, I prefer magnesium bisglycinate, which has also been shown to be effective.
And that's all I am implementing from his routine for now. I respect what Bryan is doing, becoming a human study of longevity and anti-aging. It will be interesting to see his results in the future.
