In a surprising twist, a woman who spends a mere $108 per month on anti-aging remedies has surpassed millionaire biohacker Bryan Johnson in a leaderboard ranking aimed at tracking the effectiveness of anti-aging practices.
What Happened: As per a Business Insider report, Julie Gibson Clark, whose monthly investment in anti-aging measures amounts to $108, currently holds a higher position than Johnson on the Rejuvenation Olympics leaderboard. The online platform, which Johnson himself initiated, employs DNA tests to rank participants based on the rate of their biological aging.
Clark holds the second position on the leaderboard, surpassing Johnson, who is known for his high-end health routines that cost approximately $2 million annually, and currently ranks sixth. Clark’s monthly expenses include a $27 gym membership and a $79 subscription for NOVOS supplements.
Clark incorporates fasting, exercise, cardio and strength training, meditation, and a vegetable-rich diet into her daily routine. In contrast, Johnson’s expensive regime features a strict diet, daily intake of 111 supplements, and other unconventional techniques to slow down his biological age.
Clark highlights the importance of integrating healthy habits into everyday life, saying, “This stuff has to just kind of be like brushing your teeth.”
Responding to the ranking, Johnson commented, “It’s a victory that in a @FortuneMagazine profile, speed of aging is now a topic of status, intrigue, slight, drama and competition.”
Why It Matters: Johnson’s high-cost regimen, as detailed in a previous Benzinga article involves, involves a team of 30 doctors monitoring his body’s daily functions, with the goal of giving him the health of an 18-year-old. Additionally, Johnson has participated in blood-swapping procedures with his 17-year-old son and 70-year-old father.
However, the growing consensus among anti-aging scientists and biohackers, as reported by Benzinga, emphasizes the benefits of vitamin D for longevity. This consensus, which includes Dr. Anthony Fauci and anti-aging researcher Joao Pedro de Magalhaes, highlights the need for affordable and easily accessible anti-aging practices, echoing Clark’s ideology.
