Personally aging fucking terrifies me, if I could sacrifice half of humanity, my family, friends and cat included in order to be young forever and not suffer any illness, I'd honestly do it.
The consistent degradation of the body, the mind, the disease, the dysfunction, it's all horrific.
I don't mean aging beyond physical appearance, but on a physiological level. We all know those pretty boys who looked great when young, but looked like they were ran over by a truck when they aged.
It's both depressing and terrifying. Also, there's the issue of death itself, you mean to tell that I spend all this year's on earth, for me to eventually die without having done and experience not even a quarter of what life has to offer?
I'm young, and I'm thankful that I became aware of my fear of death and aging early on, because truly the best treatment is prevention, I'm already doing stuff to preserve my youth markers for as long as possible, and not fuck up my health too early, but of course, I'm not rich, I don't have the money for all the stem cell treatments, 50 red light therapy panels, etc. And really today, the science of anti-aging isn't too clear, there's a lot of contradiction.
I pray that by the time I'm in my 30s and 40s, the science and research becomes more clear, I'm personally very supportive of what people like Bryan Johnson and those other rejuvenation athletes are doing, and I'm 100% hoping on that protocol when the moment is right and there's enough evidence from research and anecdotes to validate many of those protocols, diets and supplements, or maybe half of them are dead by the time I'm old, and at the very least we know what doesn't work!
