'My Stomach Is Eating Itself': Biohacker Bryan Johnson Reveals the Diagnosis His Anti-Aging Regimen Never Saw Coming
- On Monday, tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson revealed he was diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis , a chronic condition where his immune system attacks his stomach cells, marking a setback in his quest for radical life extension.
- Project Blueprint, the longevity initiative led by Johnson, involves subjecting his body to extreme procedures; he routinely consumes more than 100 specialized compounds daily, placing significant metabolic loads on his liver and kidneys.
- To combat the disease, Johnson is undergoing blood testing to decode "one million immune cells" and identify which are attacking his stomach lining, stating, "We know what therapy path to pursue to shut them down."
- Tracking his biomarkers closely, Johnson framed the illness as the "ultimate stress test" for his health regimen, noting the disease causes irreversible damage including nutritional deficiency and anaemia, yet remains optimistic.
- Independent immunologists warn that relying on unproven bio-hacking regimens during active autoimmune flare-ups could prove fatal, though Johnson remains committed to solving the condition through data collection.
