Anti-aging geek CEO says it takes 19 months to gain a year of age

Brian Johnson, the creator of Project Blueprint and a tech entrepreneur best known for his research into longevity, has declared that he has significantly slowed down his biological aging. He said that a recent analysis revealed that the slowdown in biological aging has meant that birthdays now occur every 19 months. In simple terms, it now takes you 19 months to gain one year of age, strictly biologically speaking.

In a post on social media site X, Johnson wrote: “My new record is 0.64 aging pace. My birthday now comes once every 19 months. I used to create Braintree Venmo, now I’m creating a human with the goal of slowing and reversing aging. Nutrition is the key to anti-aging. This is what I eat every day. You can too.”

“I’ve been working hard to slow down my aging and I’ve finally achieved a personal best of 0.64, which roughly translates to only aging 7.6 months every 12 months,” Johnson said in a video message.

Project Blueprint is focused on devising a strict daily protocol that will ultimately slow an individual’s aging process.The program costs $2 million per year, according to the 46-year-old entrepreneur, and has reversed epigenetic age, a marker of cellular aging.

He has to adhere to a strict diet plan that includes 100 different supplements and calorie-restricted foods every day. Johnson recently revealed that he also includes pure cocoa, which is high in flavonols and free of heavy metals, in his daily diet.

So far, the entrepreneur claims to have been able to reverse his own epigenetic age by 5.1 years.

Johnson has been in the news a lot recently for the unusual ways he tries to reverse his age and extend his life, from undergoing risky blood transfusions with family members to trying out various hair treatments.
