What if you could reverse the clock on aging—naturally? What would it be like to feel ten years younger, full of limitless energy, better health, and peak biomarkers. Too good to be true, you say? Well, one guy says he's done exactly that.

Max G, co-founder of health firm Join Zero, has been on Bryan Johnson's Blueprint, a draconian longevity protocol that aims to reverse biological aging. After two years of devotion, he claims to be 18 again biologically—10 years younger than his age! But is this groundbreaking anti-aging regimen really effective? And how much does it cost to stick to it? Let's take a closer look at his experience and get to the bottom of Johnson's ambitious Blueprint.

Max G posted on X (formerly Twitter) his experience with Blueprint. He stated in a post that prior to embracing Johnson's methods, he had perpetual fatigue, poor nutritional intake, and an irregular sleep pattern. But through perseverance with the program, his life was changed, and now he is ten years younger biologically. His biomarkers of cholesterol, blood sugar, and inflammation are all at optimal levels.

Looking back at his experience, Max G penned, "Almost 2 years on @bryan_johnson's Blueprint: in 2023: always tired, carb-loading, night owl habits. In 2024: turned things around, focused on health & longevity. 2025: 10 YEARS YOUNGER biologically (18 vs 28) with 90% of all biomarkers in optimal ranges."

How Does the Anti- Ageing Blueprint Really Work?

Blueprint is a carefully designed longevity regimen authored by Johnson himself. It is based on scientific studies and utilizes evidence-based methods to maximize multiple dimensions of health. As stated on the official Blueprint website, the program is centered on a few important pillars:

Diet: A precisely measured diet of nutrients aimed at feeding the body and slowing down ageing.

Exercise: A disciplined regimen of exercise geared towards keeping cardiovascular and muscular function in perfect shape.

Sleep Optimisation: Prioritizing rest and recovery to promote cognitive function and cellular repair.

Skincare and Supplements: An integrated regimen to facilitate skin health and overall longevity.

Johnson, who is self-styled as "the most measured person in history," regularly experiments and optimizes the program from real-time biological information. The process includes testing the biological age of more than 70 organs and modifying the routine accordingly.

Challenges of Following Blueprint

Although the results are impressive, Max G also pointed out the difficulties of sticking to such a rigid regimen. One of the main disadvantages, he said, was the effect on his social flexibility. Late-night meals and spontaneous excursions became challenging because of the strict regimen of Blueprint. Moreover, monitoring and sticking to the routine required a lot of effort and discipline.

But to balance this, Max G stuck to the 80/20 rule, which means he followed the protocol 80% of the time and had some room for flexibility in the other 20%. He recognized that his dedication varied with work requirements but insisted on consistency to reap long-term gains.

Aside from the physical changes, Max G divulged his largest takeaways from undergoing Blueprint. He underscored the necessity of focusing on three building blocks of health prior to considering other interventions:

Nutrition – Having a clean, nutrient-rich diet is the cornerstone of longevity and health.

Sleep – Maximizing rest and recovery supports cellular regeneration and brain function.

Exercise – Engaging in regular exercise is integral to maintaining a young body and mind.

In addition, he stressed the importance of monitoring improvement by saying, "You can only improve what you measure." He also urged people to establish a support network, as being in contact with similar individuals can enhance accountability and motivation.

Does the Blueprint Really Work?

Blueprint promises to enhance mood, cardiac health, vitality, concentration, and muscularity. Although anecdotal evidence such as Max G's case is compelling, the wider scientific establishment is yet to study the long-term implications of such an drastic regimen. Despite this, however, Johnson's biomarkers were said to be among the very best in the world, supporting the hypothesis that a protocol-driven longevity program could produce remarkable improvements.

The idea of reversing biological age is a developing science, and Blueprint is one of the most ambitious efforts to advance the limits of human longevitiy. Not everyone will be interested in adopting that kind of drastic lifestyle, but Max G's success indicates that even partial compliance with the principles of Blueprint can have quantifiable benefits for health.

As longevity research continues to move forward, methodologies such as Blueprint will become ever more sophisticated and available to the masses. As skeptics hold that extreme programs will not prove feasible for large numbers of people, pioneers like Bryan Johnson and Max G are a preview into what might become possible with targeted health monitoring and disciplined lifestyle adaptations.

For those interested in reversing aging, Blueprint offers an organized system. Yet, they advise that every individual will react differently and longevity depends on lasting persistence over instantaneous cures.

Max G’s experience with Blueprint serves as an intriguing case study in the field of longevity. His decade-long reversal in biological age underscores the power of disciplined lifestyle changes in reshaping health outcomes. While Blueprint remains an intense and highly structured regimen, its core principles—nutrition, sleep, and exercise—offer valuable insights for anyone looking to enhance their well-being.

As more people start experimenting with the methods of biohacking, the discourse related to turning around biological age has been continually on the move. Whether or not Blueprint is it, its presence in the longevous cause is indisputable.

Former Bangladesh one-day international (ODI) cricket captain Tamim Iqbal has been hospitalized after he suffered a heart attack on the field during a domestic match. The 36-year-old was leading Mohammedan Sporting Club in a match of the Dhaka Premier League (DPL) on Monday when he complained of chest pain., after which he was rushed to the hospital.

Tariqul Islam, a team official, told a leading media organisation, that Tamim was being treated at a hospital in Savar on Dhaka’s outskirts and urged people to pray for his quick recovery. Meanwhile, the doctors also released an official update wherein they said, "He returned to us in a critical condition. We can call it a heart attack, and we subsequently did an angiogram ( X-ray for blocked arteries) and angioplasty to remove the blockage. The medical procedure has gone smoothly. He is currently under observation. The swift coordination between the medical staff at BKSP and the hospital ensured Tamim was treated quickly."

Can We Predict Heart Attacks?

You can identify a heart attack if the person feels sudden pain or discomfort in the chest, shortness of breath, nausea or sweating. However, several symptoms can occur a month before a person actually suffers a heart attack. They include

1. Chest Pain: A persistent feeling of pressure, tightness, or squeezing in the chest is a hallmark sign that may precede a heart attack.

2. Pain in Other Parts of the Body: Heart attack symptoms aren’t always confined to the chest. Pain may radiate to the arms, jaw, neck, back, or stomach, often described as an aching or heavy sensation.

3. Shortness of Breath: Struggling to catch your breath or feeling out of breath without significant exertion can indicate reduced blood flow to the heart and lungs.

4. Unusual Fatigue: Feeling excessively tired, even after minimal effort, could be a subtle sign of heart trouble.

Why Is Angioplasty Done?

Angioplasty is a procedure that widens blocked or narrowed arteries. It restores blood flow to the heart without open heart surgery. For angioplasty, a long, thin tube (catheter) is put into a blood vessel. It is then guided to the blocked coronary artery. The catheter has a tiny balloon at its tip. Once the catheter is in place, the balloon is inflated at the narrowed area of the heart artery. This presses the plaque or blood clot against the sides of the artery. The result is more room for blood flow.

In recent times, incidences of people suffering from heart attacks while being in the middle of an activity that is physically exerting like running on treadmills, have been repeatedly reported. Iqbal already had blockages in his heart when he was on the field. There is a huge probability that this caused his heart attack.

Nearly two weeks after US Health authorities set a timeline for compounding pharmacies to end the production of duplicate weight loss drugs, things have not changed online. Popular websites like Amble, EllieMD, Willow and Mochi Health are all still advertising versions of Tirzepatide, the active ingredient in Zepbound. Compounded versions of Mounjaro, a Tirzepatide, are also openly available across online platforms.

What Is Compounding?

Compounding is where pharmacies mix ingredients of a drug to create a specialised version for specific patients. Say someone is allergic to a dye in a branded medication or needs a liquid form and the main manufacturer only sells capsules. In that case, the patient can turn to a compounded version or the liquid form. Moreover, when drugs are in shortage, they can be compounded in larger quantities to help fill the gap.

Mochi Health, a leading telehealth company in the US, has no plans to stop and neither do the four pharmacies, it uses to supply patients with medications. According to CNBC, the company uses a network of about 500 providers to write prescriptions for weight-loss drugs, including compound versions. It is betting that offering personalised versions of drugs will keep the company out of the crosshairs. Speaking to a leading health news website, CEO Myra Ahmad underscored that there can be different dosing schedules for different patients. Some patients prefer to go up in dosage much more slowly while others like to mix some other medications into their compounded formulations, depending on the side effects that they’re having. Some patients have side effects with any additives and brand name formulations. Compounding really opens up the door for so much personalization.

How Does Tirzepatide Weight Loss Drugs Function?

Tirzepatides, like Zepbound and Mounjaro, are typically antidiabetic medications used to treat type 2 diabetes and for weight loss. However, unlike semaglutide like Ozempic, these drugs work on two hormone receptors. Muanjaro and Zepbound activate both GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) hormone receptor agonists, leading to an increase in the production of insulin when needed. They also reduce the amount of glucose, or sugar, produced by the liver, and slow down how quickly food is digested. This all helps to lower blood sugar levels and HbA1c. Notably, the fact that Tirzepatides works on two receptors doubles its efficiency than semaglutides like Ozempic and Wegovy.

How Much Are Zepbound And Mounjaro Priced?

Zepbound and Mounjaro, two medications manufactured by Eli Lilly, are part of a new class of drugs designed to manage obesity and type 2 diabetes, respectively. In the US, the list price for both Zepbound and Mounjaro is approximately $1,060 for a one-month supply, depending on the dosage. While insurance coverage can significantly reduce out-of-pocket costs for some patients, others may face the full price if the medications are not covered under their health plans. Eli Lilly has introduced savings programs and discount cards to improve access, but affordability remains a challenge for many, especially those without comprehensive insurance.

However, if soap and water are not readily available, it is always a good idea to carry a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol to clean your hands.

Why Is It Important?

CDC notes that washing hands can keep you healthy and prevent the spread of respiratory and diarrheal infections. Germs can spread form one person to another especially when your touch your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands, or when your prepare or eat good, touch surfaces or objects that have germs on them, or blow your nose, cough, or sneeze into hands and then touch other people's hands or common objects.

What Are The Key Time To Wash Hands?

• Before, during, and after preparing food
• Before and after eating food
• Before and after caring for someone at home who is sick
• Before and after treating a cut or a wound
• After using the toilet
• After changing diapers or cleaning up a child who has used a toilet
