'My Stomach Is Eating Itself': Biohacker Bryan Johnson Reveals He Has Autoimmune Disease

Johnson said the rare disease can cause anemia and cancer risk, and his team plans repeat biopsies and other testing to guide experimental care.

  • 48-Year-Old tech founder and biohacker Bryan Johnson revealed he has an incurable autoimmune disease called Autoimmune Gastritis , describing the condition as his "stomach is eating itself."
  • Chronic iron deficiency and autoimmune thyroid disease are linked to his new diagnosis; Johnson noted that low iron impairs thyroid hormone conversion, a condition he previously managed with Armour Thyroid since age 21.
  • Unlike standard medical care that concedes defeat for AIG, Johnson plans to routinely monitor diagnostics including ferritin, iron, B12, Gastrin, and chromogranin A to guide his experimental management strategy.
  • Johnson received a 1,000 mg Monoferric iron infusion and intends to conduct a repeat biopsy with deep cytokine profiling and T-cell subset analysis to identify which pathways are firing.
  • True to his reputation as an advocate for "conquering death," Johnson vowed to incorporate experimental approaches into his ongoing Project Blueprint, a multi-million-dollar anti-ageing experiment.
