[American technology tycoon and 17-year-old son exchanged transfusions to maintain youth failed: useless]In order to resist aging, 45-year-old Silicon Valley tycoon Bryan Johnson (Bryan Johnson) once conducted a three-generation transfusion experiment, perfusing his 17-year-old in his body The son’s plasma, and then provide his own plasma to the 70-year-old father. However, the effect is not ideal.

Johnson tweeted last week that he had discontinued the plasma therapy because he had not detected any benefit from it. However, he believes that this type of plasma exchange therapy may be helpful in older people, and the results of his father are not yet in.

Johnson is obsessed with “rejuvenation” and spends $2 million a year on health regimens. He instituted a regimen called Project Blueprint, paid a team of 30 doctors to oversee his condition, lived an extremely strict routine, exercised every day, Strictly adhering to vegetarianism, the daily calorie intake is only 1977 calories, the last meal is eaten at 11 am, and more than 100 supplements are taken every day.

According to Bloomberg, scientists have experimented with sewing young and old mice together so that they share a circulatory system. The results showed that the older mice showed improvements in cognitive function, metabolism and bone structure, while the younger mice showed the possible positive effects of frequent blood donations. However, there is still little experimental data on this technology in humans, and many researchers believe that there are uncertainties in plasma exchange life extension therapy.

Some researchers analyzing the field of longevity warn against choosing plasma therapy in healthy people. “We don’t yet have a clear idea that this is a viable treatment for humans,” said Charles Brenner, a biochemist at City of Hope National Medical Center in Los Angeles. “To me, that’s gross, no evidence, and relatively dangerous.”
