Robert Nelsen, a highly successful VC, @rtnarch, 60 years old, downs a daily cocktail of almost a dozen different drugs, including rapamycin, metformin, taurine, and nicotinamide mononucleotide, all of which he says help prevent illness and promote longevity

Cynthia Kenyon is the IT lady for molecular biology. (Molecular biology - Wikipedia)
She looks fabulous for a 70 year old. In this video, she talked about rapamycin as a longevity agent but she doesn’t take it herself (timestamp: 5:29)
She is a purist. Recently she called for a “Global Healthspan Foundation” to fund clinical trials on rapamycin and other interventions.

"Your go-to daily meals: I have 2 meals a day. One is a protein shake at 10 AM and second meal is at 4-5 PM. Protein shake includes 30 grams of whey protein with collagen and some frozen berries.

My macros are about 25% protein, 25% fat and 50% carbs.
Supplements you take: collagen 10 g/day, glycine 10-15 g/day, TMG 2 g/day, creatine 3 g/day, magnesium 400 mg/day, taurine 6 g/day, omega-3s 2 g/day, hyaluronic acid 200 mg/day, astaxanthin 12 mg/day
Workout routines: 3x week resistance training for 45 minutes (push-pull-legs split), 1x week HIIT training 4x4x4 Norwegian protocol, 2x week zone 2 cardio 60 minutes. Daily walking ~10-12k steps

Not a famous person, but definitely longevity-ambitious:
What sort of novel therapies are you using now?
My mindset is perhaps my most powerful tool. I believe that a positive, determined attitude can influence physical health in profound ways. Studies support this, showing that people with positive outlooks, especially in long-lived populations, can experience significant longevity benefits. While I use some supplements, my primary focus remains on harnessing the power of my mind to drive my longevity journey.I am currently exploring new therapies like NAD+ and Rapamycin, which have shown promise in longevity research. Rapamycin, for example, is a drug originally used in organ transplants but has gained attention for its potential anti-aging properties. It works by inhibiting the mTOR pathway, which is linked to aging and cellular senescence. I’m inspired by pioneers like Peter Diamandis, who advocate for its use in slowing down the biological clock. I haven’t fully committed to a Rapamycin regimen yet, but I’m closely monitoring the research and considering it as a part of my longevity toolkit.
