Re: Micro-Dosing Lithium for Life Extension - How to Divide 300mg Tablet? You didn't change diet or exercise whilst ramping Rapamcyin? I was concerned too on exercise blunting, but have found no such effect at 4mg/week. Are you doing this flying solo, or doctor supervised?…

Re: Micro-Dosing Lithium for Life Extension - How to Divide 300mg Tablet? @Brin Chikovski ok I figured. Did you start out at 10mg or work your way up? Other than the wound comment, any other side effects, positive effects actually measurable?

Re: Micro-Dosing Lithium for Life Extension - How to Divide 300mg Tablet? @Brin Chikovski Brin, you are taking 10mg I assume 3x per day, re every meal? 30 mg per day? I just started on 4mg once per WEEK. The prevailing thinking on Rapamycin is intermittent at best not to…

Re: Glucosamine instead of Metformin and Rapamycin? @Joe smith Started my first dose 4 mg weekly Rapamycin. No obvious effects. Most importantly, my exercise regiment and recovery seem unperturbed.

Re: Glucosamine instead of Metformin and Rapamycin? @Peter H. Howe apoe3/3 well that’s a better starting point, but still 60% of AD is 3/3. But apoe is NOT singularly causative, it’s a complex polygenic risk disease.…

Re: Glucosamine instead of Metformin and Rapamycin? @Joe smith The fact that Rapamcyin, being a macrolide, is not specifically mentioned in the article hardly gives me scientific comfort. Surely they would not have listed every macrolide in existence,…

Re: Glucosamine instead of Metformin and Rapamycin? @Peter H. Howe This is a really interesting debate. As it relates to aging and sarcopenia, it's now contested that it's actually OVER-ACTIVE mTOR which contributes to sarcopenia,…

Re: Glucosamine instead of Metformin and Rapamycin? @Joe smith Just doing a bit of a deep dive on berberine. You say you take 500mg berberine with Rapamycin? I've read some papers and references that berberine and macrolides (of which Rapamycin is…

Re: Biohackers Perform First Plasma Dilution Experiment on Humans This technique is a human modification of the Conboys' mouse experiments.

Re: Can any meaningful conclusions of efficacy/harm ever be drawn form individual experience/"self experimentation"? @Mark Thimineur 6/15 over 100! Looks like you won the genetic lottery, and thus your epigenetic data is not surprising. And it doesn’t seem at all you are waiting for anything...…
