Bryan Johnson is a successful entrepreneur, investor, and visionary thinker - and now, based on his incredibly popular age reversal Blueprint here - is now an icon in the age reversal and longevity communities.

His recent foray into incorporating longevity science into his Blueprint includes results such as:


5.1 yrs epigenetic age reversal
Slowed pace of aging by equivalent 31 years
Now aging slower than the average 10 yr old
Ideal muscle & fat (MRI)
50+ optimal clinical outcome biomarkers
100+ markers chronological age
Several fitness tests = 18yr old
Body runs 3°F cooler

He is perhaps best known for co-founding Braintree, a payments company that was sold to PayPal for $800 million in 2013. After the acquisition, Johnson turned his attention to developing the next generation of transformative technologies. He founded OS Fund, a venture capital firm that invests in companies working on scientific breakthroughs to solve some of the world's most pressing problems.

Johnson's passion for using technology to enhance the human experience led him to launch Kernel, a company that is building advanced neural interfaces to augment human intelligence. Kernel's mission is to create a new era of human intelligence by building hardware and software systems that can augment, repair, and improve cognitive function. Johnson believes that these technologies have the potential to fundamentally transform the way we live and work, and could ultimately help us solve some of humanity's greatest challenges.

In addition to his work with Kernel and OS Fund, Johnson is also a philanthropist and supporter of various social and environmental causes. He has pledged to donate at least half of his wealth to charitable causes, and is a signatory of The Giving Pledge, a commitment by some of the world's wealthiest individuals to give away the majority of their wealth to address society's most pressing problems.

In this discussion with Bryan, you'll learn how to use deep science and quantification to push the boundaries of what's possible for you in the realms of lifespan and health span.

Tim Gray is the UK’s Leading Biohacker and Founder of the Health Optimisation Summit June 17-18 2023. In this episode, Tim tells us about his fitness routine, supplement routine (we share an affinity for Timeline Nutrition), and general dietary methods. Like me, Tim has tried A LOT of biohacking devices. We get to hear about his favorites and some of the devices he thought were totally silly until he tried them and became hooked.

Tim first joined me in the podcast How UK’s Leading Biohacker Eats, Drinks, & Optimizes His Life: An Interview With Tim Gray. As I covered in that episode, he is known for his detailed tracking of more than 35+ biomarkers per day, appears frequently in the mainstream media to discuss practical, trackable, and immediately applicable health hacks, and is featured on over 30 podcasts a year.

After his own journey of self-healing from chronic health conditions using biohacking, Tim embarked on a mission to educate and empower the masses. As such, he created the Health Optimisation Summit, Europe’s largest health conference that showcases the best speakers from the health, biohacking, fitness, longevity, nutrition, functional, and preventative medicine spaces (including yours truly) in order to provide people with the knowledge, tools, and resources to take their own health and performance to the next level.

If you've ever looked into ketogenic diets or ketone supplementation, you may have already heard of H.V.M.N. 

As one of the most research-backed companies in their field, they make one of the best supplemental ketones on the market. 

The company was first founded in 2014 by my former podcast guests Geoffrey Woo and Michael Brandt (see Geoffrey Woo's interview and Michael Brandt's interview.) 

Since that time, the research on ketones has exploded. In 2018, H.V.M.N. products affiliated with United States Special Operations Command were tested as part of Operation Tech Warrior, and in the 2019 Tour de France, multiple cycling teams including Team Jumbo–Visma and Lotto–Soudal confirmed usage of ketone ester for performance and recovery. 

My guest on this show is H.V.M.N.'s research lead Dr. Latt Mansor, who holds a Ph.D. in Physiology, Anatomy, and Genetics from the University of Oxford. He also holds an MA (Columbia University) and a BS (University of Nottingham) in Biotechnology. Latt brings over a decade of experience spanning academic research, health technology, and pharmaceuticals to the H.V.M.N. team, and now, to this conversation. 

He oversees all the scientific development and clinical applications for all H.V.M.N. products, and this episode is all about what the company actually makes and how their products work, including how to time and dose ketones as a supplement.
