Do you mind if I ask what caused your tinnitus ? I have noise induced and am wondering if I can see any benefit.

Hi there. New to this site. I would love to see the “benefits of Rapamycin” according to age categories. I suspect that the under 55 or 60 accounts for “nothing noted” and the percentages for improvements would be much greater in above 55-60 age crowd. Just an idea. Thank you for your work.

I think you are spot on.
At 62 years, I was already having a variety of issues… visceral fat, dysphagia, memory issues, strength diminished, loss of skin elasticity, eye issues.
These and more were greatly improved by 3 + years of rapamycin.

I am just finishing (as a subject) the year-long PEARL clinical trial using Rapamycin, where one of the principal endpoints is visceral fat, as measured in a DXA scan. I have seen a 30% drop in total-body visceral fat, from about 3.3 lb to 2.3 lb.

Approximately 18 months on Rapamycin. First 3 months a 6mg once per week. Then off for some 3 months (detailed elsewhere). Then restarted at 12mg once per week.
After 3 months on following my restart, I effortlessly dropped from a peak pf 206 lbs / 24% body fat to 194 lbs / 21% bf.
About six week ago I started another loss of weight. Note: I had upped my physical activity quite at bit.
This morning I weighed in at 177 lbs / 17% body fat.
Blood work great. Interesting journey.
