In this video, Bryan Johnson explains his two primary objectives—slowing the rate of aging and reversing existing biological damage—and announces the addition of calcium alpha‑ketoglutarate (CaAKG) to his anti‑aging Blueprint regimen. He references a mouse study that used a frailty index (assessing tremors, tumors, fur loss, etc.) and reported a substantial 20‑year human‑equivalent improvement, effectively shifting an 80‑year‑old physiological profile to that of a 60‑year‑old. Johnson judges the study results compelling enough to warrant evaluation, notes that CaAKG meets his safety criteria, and outlines that he will begin taking it immediately while continuing his standard measurement protocols. He provides links in the video comments for purchasing CaAKG and commits to sharing future data on its effects.

As you know, I'm trying to do two things. 1 slow how fast I age and 2 reverse aging damage or reverse my biological age. Today we're going to add caakg. We found this in a mouse study where the authors were looking at frailty index. Now, the frailty index is something that predicts disability, mortality and cognitive decline, among many other things. The authors looked at the frailty index of mice looking at tremors, tumors, loss of fur, and they found that the results were pretty significant, resulting in 20 year difference. Human years would be like going from 80 to 60. Now on that result alone we think it's worthy to evaluate. So given that we feel like it passes the safety profile, we will continue to do all the measurement protocols we normally do. We're starting to implement this today, so we'll be able to monitor this and share the results with you. If you want to check it out, have a link below in the comments, few sources where you can buy it. And then I also will be reporting back to you with what we see from taking it.
