Stuff I’m exploring for longevity:

Past:
HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen therapy)
cerebrolysin
MSCs (mesenchymal stem cells)
TPE (total plasma exchange)
blood boy
rapamycin
plasmalogens

Present:
sauna
metformin

Future:
IHHT (intermittent hypoxia-hyperoxia therapy)
EMF reduction

We’ve mastered the courage to die.

Can we muster the bravery to live.

Sleep is high status.
