A multibillionaire tech genius who plans to “live forever” has revealed information about his intricate daily schedule.
This past week, Steven Bartlett and California-based business tycoon Bryan Johnson, 45, chatted on the Diary of a CEO podcast.
He thinks the secret to eternal youth is taking 110 pills, never eating after 11am, and sleeping at the same time every day.
The billionaire continued by saying that his main objective in the twenty-first century is to “not die,” and that he does all in his power to prolong life, including injecting his 17-year-old son’s plasma.
‘I’m revolting against the culture of death,’ he said on the podcast.
‘I was born to introduce this new idea to humanity,’ he told Dragon’s Den star Steven.
‘In the 21st Century, the only goal is not to die. It’s the rallying cry for the 21st Century, those two words: “don’t die”,’ he added.
Speaking this week, he also discussed how his Mormon heritage and prior struggles with depression and suicidal ideas contributed to his current success. However, he expressed concern that not taking care of himself earlier in life may have had unintended consequences.
Bryan continued by saying that he believes it is “absolutely possible” to “live forever” and that he uses an algorithm to make all of his judgments. As a result, Bryan does not provide his mind the “authority” to make decisions.
Bryan added that he values sleep above all else and that for the past six months, he has consistently gotten the highest possible quality of sleep.
The billionaire acknowledged that going to bed at 8.30 p.m. every night can be bad for his social life, but he insisted that it is worthwhile.
He frequently goes four to five hours without speaking to anyone after waking up so that he can “think.”
‘I probe myself to deep levels, but you can get knocked off so fast. ‘Someone saying “How are you, how was your sleep” can knock me off.’
Additionally, the single father allots 2250 calories per day for entirely plant-based food, which he consumes between 6am and 11am.
He advises drinking no more than 3 ounces of wine each day and only in the morning.
‘I’ve built my life around sleep,’ he explained. ‘That’s the opposite of cultural norms, most people will blow their bedtime if they want to go out with friends.
‘I’ve made the hard decisions. There are a bunch of small things. ‘My last meal of the day is at 11am, by the time I go to bed I have more than eight hours of digestion.
‘I ran a few hundred experiments on this. I sleep best with an empty stomach’.
‘I’m single, I’ve tried to date before, I’ve given them a list of 10 things that will make them impossible to like me.
‘We’re baby steps away from creating superintelligence, we cannot model out what the future is like in any way, shape or form,’ he explained.
‘The only thing we can play is don’t die, don’t kill each other. And don’t underestimate AI.’
Bryan spends $2 million (£1.6 million) annually on a group of more than 30 doctors and healthcare professionals who monitor and test practically all of his organs. Their goal is to modify his body such that it resembles an 18-year-old’s.
He measures everything from his bone weight to the frequency of his nightly erections and has taken 33,537 photos of his bowels.
He and his doctors assert that he has decreased his biological age overall by more than five years in just two years and now has the heart and skin of a 37-year-old, the lung capacity and fitness of an 18-year-old, and the lung capacity of a 28-year-old. Oliver Zolman, a 29-year-old physician conducting aging therapy research at Cambridge, is the head of his medical staff.
The businessman launched Braintree Payment Solutions when he was in his 30s; he later sold it for $800 million.
