Medical Interventions (TRT, HGH, Stem Cells, Peptides, etc.) For Longevity | Episode 5

Just with the current pace of medicine and medical technologies, if you live an extra year, you get another three months of life. We could easily approach a time where every year you live, you get another year of life.

With growth hormone, it's all about eating at the right time and sleeping. So, if you eat not too close to sleep time, and then you rest through the night and have a good night's sleep, that's the best way to improve your growth hormone levels.

So, some of the risks of TRT: There's worse sleep apnea; you can actually get larger breasts; little known fact is your testosterone can be turned into estrogen, which is a risk for men particularly; you can have what's called benign prostatic hyperplasia, so a bigger prostate, [which would make you] go to the bathroom at night; shrinking testicles, not something I think many of us would want; and an increase in red blood cell protection, which could lead to blood clots.

MOTS-c, when injected into mice, lowers blood sugar levels, increases mitochondrial activity, gives you the signatures of long life, probably promotes life; there's some evidence of that.

There's a real fundamental drawback to using stem cells to live longer, and that is that they often don't find their niche, their resting place. Even if you inject them into the eye, often, they don't find their home.
