Today is my 39th birthday so in conjunction with health coaching discussions I’ve had with friends and family I’m going to implement another anti-aging modality as I approach 40. If it all works out I would never biologically hit 40. I still have no significant desire for a sports car as I turn the corner, even if I had the expendable money it seems like the absolute wrong advertisement. Me, I'd rather simply start or perhaps more aggressively continue, rewinding the biological clock.
Modest goals right.
For no great reason I’ve been waiting on trying one of the best candidate protocols for antiaging the TRIIM protocol. Patient’s in the TRIIM and TRIIM-X use growth hormone in conjunction with metformin, DHEA, Vitamin-D & Zinc to then experience soft tissue repair and regrowth of vital organs while reducing fat and inflammation. Subjectively subjects discuss experiencing increased energy and mood. When they are tested for biological age they reduce age faster biologically than they age. Given that the epigenetic ages seem to reduce faster as the trial goes on. I have expectations to continue my proxy protocol for 18 months to 24 months before reassessing. Instead of growth hormone I intend to take GHRH (growth hormone releasing hormone) and (growth hormone releasing peptides) which are about 1/10th the cost of growth hormone and arguably safer. While I can get metformin I will use berberine, because it seems to have very similar benefits while being easily available over the counter.
For anyone who would like to follow along here is the exact protocol costing just under 150$ per month. Not an extreme price to pay if it actually makes us younger. Note: The lead researcher Greg Fahy says he’s having good success with women in his TRIIM-X trial though the numbers are low and they were not in the TRIIM original study. I would imagine the GH dosing would need to be adjusted for women from other research indicating women have a less pulsatile GH secretion. If any of my women friends or family want me to dig more on this let me know...I’m happy to make an update.
