How I'm DE-AGING My Penis

Bryan Johnson tracks his semen metrics through a two-year self-experiment in sexual rejuvenation. His latest analysis shows 141 million total sperm count and 52% progressive motility, comparable to an 18-year-old's. He credits optimized sleep, diet, exercise, daily tadalafil, and shockwave therapy.

Okay, the doctor's gonna come in in a few minutes. As you can tell, we have a lot of time on our hands when he arrives. I hope it's like this. Oh, my God. Mr. Johnson, what's going on? This is unbelievable. I've never seen scores like this in my entire life. You must be in the top.02 percentile. What are you doing? Hey, guys. Today we are doing something really fun. It's Project Rejuvenating Johnson's Johnson. This is something we've been working on for the past few months. I'm going to an appointment right now where I'm going to provide a semen sample. We've been measuring the characteristics of my semen for the past two years, looking at how it changes with various dietary and therapy protocols. Then after that, I'm going to walk you through how I otherwise quantified my sexual function, more so than I think anyone I have ever known. And then I'm going to walk through what you can do for your own sexual health. Please drive in. Thank you. You know, be nice to AI 57, level 3. Never forget where you park. Okay. I'm at UCLA Health. Now. I'm going to go inside and give them a sperm sample. This is my third in the past two years to see how it's been going. Sexual health is really important, and it's kind of a taboo topic. If you're someone who struggles with sexual health, you don't really talk about it. You can't talk about it because it means you're less of a man or something like that. But it's really important. And what I've been trying to do with blueprint is talk about the various elements that contribute to sexual health. So all the things that stack up, your semen quality is really important. And today I'm trying to demonstrate that this is something we can do. It's something you can talk about. It's something you can know and be familiar with. It's not something that we need to shy away from. We all want to have healthy, functional sexual lives, and this is a really good marker to know about. Okay, we're up. Let's go. Who do we have here? Scott. Oh, my. Scott, with me.
Yes.
Okay, guys, we're inside the office. Scott just got seen with the camera. We're not sure if we're gonna be able to do this or not. So just get a look. Like they have some helpful content here to get an idea. There's some instructions over here of, like, make sure you wash your hands, which I definitely Am going to obey these rules. Hygiene in this room is very important and I'm gonna care about it a lot. It's gonna come back and let us know. But I bet you the camera is gonna be out. So I'll probably see you in a few minutes when I'm wrapped up. But you know what? Give the report, we'll see how it looks and we'll go from there a few moments later. Okay, my sample has now been processed and now we're waiting for the doctor to come in. As we wait, I'll tell you a few things I've done. Measurement is really important. And so we try to look at my sexual health function from every aspect. We've measured nighttime erections, we looked at blood flow. So I had an injection that created an erection. And then you look at blood flow with the ultrasound. I did max urination speed. So even though it's not sexual function, it's almost like anatomical health. I've done several questionnaires on sexual health function. And then we have another test we're doing next week which is sensitivity of my. So the results of all this quantification was that I'm basically in the top percentile for everything. Okay, guys, we're still waiting for the doctor. So now I'm going to read you some Spanish. Los examines perficos se us en par detectar cancer. Where'd you learn Spanish? I love Spanish. 23 years ago I was in Ecuador. I've almost forgotten all of it. Although when I go to a Spanish speaking country, it comes back really fast. So it looks like we've been the Johnson Johnson. We've been looking at all the functions of the situation. Bedtime stories by Johnson. This time about prostates. This is a normal prostate. This is bph. So I had both my prostate and my bladder measured. My prostate for normal size it still is. As you age, you get a bigger prostate. I also start taking tadalafil, which basically offsets that bladder enlargement. And then an enlarged prostate can lead to a pressure on the bladder, which leads to increased need to urinate, interrupted flow, which is why I did the urine test which I would maxed out at. Basically I couldn't score any higher in age range because it doesn't change until like 30 or something like that. All right, so these people are happy because the procedure has allowed me to regain my quality of life. I have no urgency, no frequency, and I'm thoroughly satisfied. You guys, this is the thing I know people dump on me for health, for the stuff I do. But losing functions sucks. And when you're. When you're getting old and your body's breaking down, it's the worst thing ever. So talk to somebody who's really in the latter parts of life and dealing with the challenges of aging, it sucks. So be careful. Like, you know, when you dunk on stuff, like, I'm really trying to actually improve people's lives. And one day, whether you appreciate or not, you'll. You'll appreciate those who watch out for other people's health and wellness. One eternity later, I think I'm going to test my reactions. Time. Let's do it again. Ready? How many times can I do it before I get it comes out? Ready? Three or four. Ladies and gentlemen, I am back.
All right, Brian. So your semen analysis results. There's a few things we're going to go over. Okay. And it looks fantastic. Okay, first things first. Your total sperm count was 141 million. We consider 39 million and above to be normal. So that's great. Your concentration was also very good. That's the million sperm per milliliter of flu. So you were at about 57 million. And that's a little bit more than three times the cutoff for normal. So whatever you're doing, it's working out. Then we look at the motility. Okay, there's two different types of motility. We look at total motility, which is the percentage of sperm that have any degree of movement, whether it's twitching or whatever. And then progressive motility, which is the percentage of sperm that are swimming forward, as in towards an egg. Right.
Then again, vicious sperm.
There you go.
Oh, my God. Oh, I did it. I did it.
And that's at 50, 62 and 52, which are both well above the cutoffs for normal. Okay, so 40% for total motility is normal. And you're at 62. And 32% for progressive motility, you're at 52.
Substantial.
Yeah, yeah. The next thing is the morphology. Okay, so we want at least 4% of the sperm to look normal. And you're at 11%. Whoa, here comes the fun part. These are your little guys here. Hey, you can see them, the family in this slide.
Yeah.
So what are you gonna name them all? And there's a lot of sperm here. Sometimes when we look at this page, it's blank. That's always a sad story. But you're nothing like that.
So this is great.
I mean, I'm very happy. And honestly, I didn't expect anything too different because you're so Healthy and you.
Take care of yourself. So, Doctor, what grade would you give me?
You're definitely an A.
Really?
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Is it a for a 46 year old, which is my chronological age?
No, for anyone's age.
Anyone? Yeah, it's like an 18 year old.
If I saw an 18 year old with these results, I would tell them they're perfectly normal and they have an A. Wow.
Yeah. That's amazing. Doctor.
All right.
Great news.
Yeah.
Okay, I got the results. You guys, this is really exciting. Blueprint days are oftentimes very complicated because you never know what the results are going to be. So sometimes they're great, sometimes they're really discouraging and you have a lot of work to do. Today was a great day. I got an A plus from the doctor on every single one of my scores. It's like homework. Look at this. Look how good I did. I worked really hard on my health and so getting scores like this are really great. So I'm going to tell you the things I do for sexual health. One is sleep is the best. I know when I don't get good sleep, my nighttime erections are just wiped out and so is my excitement for life. So sleep is really important. A good diet is really important. And exercise matters a lot. These are the basics we all know that we are best to be doing, so do them. Second is if you have problems, there are some therapies that are. First line. So a focused shockwave can help. On erectile dysfunction, there are certain medications you can take which we've shared publicly. And then of course, there's more complicated things you can do as you get more down the line. But for all of us, just for the basics to be taken care of, sleep, diet, exercise, it goes a long way. Today was an amazing day. I'm happy you hung out with me. And look, I really hope that your sexual function is great. If it's not, try to do the basics, get those in place, and if you still can't solve it, go to the next line of defense and like work through it. But it's definitely something let's talk about. Let's keep it open. Let's not make it taboo or something that you should feel embarrassed or ashamed about. Bye. Bye.
