Why doesn’t Misha Blagosklonny look younger?

Why is my brain humming Psycho killer by Talking heads every time I see these eyes? LOL

Hahaha - well typically I take these photos after my gym work out - so everything is swoll, pumped, circulating and humming.

Will take a new avatar pic in a few days - lol. Or, Fa-fa-fa-fa, fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa, better… maybe not! :wink:

My start on rapamycin has yet to come.
My primary goals will be live longer to be able to support my family members longer.
I have been reading a lot as result of this forum and hope to convince my own GP to take care of normal labcontrols and my own pharmacy provider to source the rapa.

It’s a great choice for me… and hopefully for you too!

It is unfortunate how difficult it is for many on this site to get this health …life enhancing medication from reliable pharmacies at home. My working in healthcare for 24 years has been an asset to acquiring rapamycin. I am surrounded by supportive physicians - several now taking rapamycin themselves. LOL. Just lucky in my career for these connections.

Blagosklonny banned me from his Twitter account a couple of years ago when he bragged about how he sunbathes regularly and doesn’t use sunscreen, and I pointed out that he’s increasing his rate of skin aging and risk of skin cancer.

So yeah, my money is on the UV exposure.

So… I guess that action didn’t age very well for him. :wink:

Many people were banned from his account. Wondering if excessive irritability, intolerance, extreme arrogance, and aggressiveness could be signs of cancer progression. Could cancer change personality?

Absolutely! Anything that changes brain anatomy/physiology (metastasitic cancer, for instance) can change personality. Of course, it could also just be a simple matter of being a proud, stubborn old Russian man.

Back in my day (age 73 now), in Southern California, sun bathing, surfing was popular. For my fair hair, skin, green-eyed composition, spending a good portion of my youth in those activities-BAD IDEA! Then add in, mild teen acne-used sun lamp therapy for that and additional tanning when I wasn’t at the beach. So far only one small BCC and SCC caught early and successfully treated with cold steel. Good heavens, what we didn’t know back then! If anyone has a time machine, I could borrow, please let me know.

Brain metastases can definitely change personality!

Loose the facial hair if you want to look younger :joy:. But I’m glad it is working for you. I hope too to look younger in a year or 2 but being fit and healthy is no. 1.

Can you please tell me what test you do to check your biological age? I want to see if it is available in Australia. Thx

Will consider shaving the beard - but then too young - lol.

I think the GlycanAge is one of the best - used in the PEARL studies. Shows inflammation - lower biological age less inflammation… means glycans on proteins are better.

For a 25% discount on your next test, please use the link: Price and Plans | GlycanAge (or the code ORDERNOW25).

Also, I like TruMe labs spit test cheaper for DNA methylation

The man is fighting cancer, cancer is a very devastating disease. He has metastasis in his brain, so it is normal for him to look old.

I just visited my in-laws and they told my wife that she looks older, but her husband does not.

I guess she needs to start taking Rapamycin. :wink:

Have you really been doing Rapa since 2000 or you meant 2020? Either way great results!

Thanks for catching that. It’s strictly a typo - corrected… began in 2020. 4 years in August.
The benefits really have been amazing skin quality, no gum disease, better memory, robust immune system. no more allergies, dysphagia gone, strength and muscle tone… loss of fat. Yeah total improvement.

Before rapamycin, I just resigned myself to aging as an unstoppable disease…just gonna get worse, arthritis, old look.

Post rapamycin… now I feel the fight is on and l’m winning. Wishing the same for everyone out there.

Hi handsome!! Is that really 2% rapamycin cream? Or was it a typo for .2%? That 2% seems really strong based on what I have read, therefore the question. I guess you made it yourself? Thanks.

I’ve had people that have known me for along time comment that my skin looks younger, even younger than in my 50s (I’m 65 now). Less sag and better color. Despite very little topical treatment (I want to do the creams, but have been too lazy to get started consistently).

Additionally, I have more muscle mass this year than at any point in my life (I started modest resistance training in my mid 40s). This probably has more to do with a recent increase in training volume, but clearly weekly rapa is not getting in the way.
