Doctors React to Bryan Johnson’s Don’t Die Documentary

[@walker2837]

Eat well, exercise well, get good sleep, minimize negative stresses. Enjoy life while it lasts.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

That's the plan!

Hello, I remember when my dad turned 72 years old...he looked at me and said...living a long life is bad for your health ;-) if you live it long enough it will kill you..nobody gets out alive lol. Great video by the way. Cheers!

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Your dad is a wise man

[@wesadrian6981]

We can always learn something from people like him. Even if we don’t agree with what he’s doing.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Agree!

[@Dontbustthecrust]

The main thing to learn is the importance of randomized human controlled trials with a large sample size.

[@UPcoffi]

Thanks for the dose of common sense mixed with humor, you guys are the best.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

That’s very kind. We do our best to keep it real.

Brilliant show, Talking with Docs . Thanks for the front line analysis!

[@TalkingWithDocs]

You are very welcome!

[@mariacarrillo6249]

I love, love your sense of humor, but above all your non-judgmental demeanor. I watched it and I found the documentary to be very interesting. Thank you for the video.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Thanks so much for the positive feedback. We think our world needs less judgment. This guy is on his own journey and it is very different from most peoples but at the end of the day if it makes him happy that’s a good thing.

[@saraht4973]

Thank thank you. So happy to hear your analysis.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Much appreciated!

[@Waterhorse1]

Such a great show. Entertaining and informative Thanks Docs!

[@patdecker-y2m]

Please consider doing a video about dental care and your overall health. Love you guys!

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Yes, this is an important topic and most people do not realize how it can negatively affect your health. Great idea.

[@Truthwinz]

I watch my 91 year old mother lose the love of her life 20 years ago, her siblings and all her friends because she’s outlived all these people who mattered in her life. Her youngest is dying of lung cancer. I’m thinking when it’s my time I will be okay and enjoy my time & hopefully leave my part of the world a little better. I think his regiment is so rigid I don’t understand how he stops to smell the earth before or after a rainfall or the beauty of raindrops on a rose petal etc. I do that & make sleep a priority, healthy eating & portions habits, exercise body & brain & I love my community. Bottom line if that brings him joy Que sera sera.

[@KathiStrunk-p8x]

Beautiful outlook on.life and death.

[@fartsinthewind]

I do think he's sacrificed some of his humanity to a point. He seems to live like a robot.

[@108Malati]

I remember reading that Metformin can lower hemoglobin level and thus can increase the risk of anemia

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Metformin can lower your B12 levels that overtime could lead to anemia. This is easily compensated for with B12 supplements, which most people likely require already.

[@anachronistofer]

The depths of human folly to fight change never cease to amaze me, and obscene personal wealth coupled with technology is exacerbating this. Only impermanence lasts.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Nice

[@1952teapot]

He's so afraid of dying he's not fully living!

[@curtislaketek2822]

Yeah he is. He feels fantastic, you don’t need to drink, smoke and eat trash to live a fulfilling life….

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Yes seems like it.

[@amandazplace5663]

Ya, I kind of wonder if this degree of rigidly micromanaging your health has its own drawbacks.♥️🇨🇦

[@Dontbustthecrust]

@@amandazplace5663 everything has compromises.

[@hellomacs]

define fully living? he's doing what he loves, he's bringing awareness to others to be more healthy and make better choices. Are doctors not fully living? Your definition of fully living is going to be different to others.

[@alandavey3010]

at 77 i am fortunate not to know this in my younger days,, ignorance is bliss,,,, been active most if my life building hard work never killed anyone except my great work collegue ,, george the creek ,,,,who passed from dust disease being a plasterer,he worked every day , you guys makes so much sense,

[@DaleH2o]

Check out the chapter in Malcolm Gladwell's book Outliers about the town of Roseto in PA. The story of the immigrants who lived long, healthy lives despite poor diets. He describes how physician Stewart Wolf discovered that the people of Roseto were remarkably healthy and had low rates of heart disease, despite not having particularly healthy diets or lifestyles. Wolf concluded that the secret to their health was not individual factors, but rather the strong community and family-oriented culture of the town. A healthy lifestyle is important but may not be the base of the longevity pyramid if there is such a thing. Even in blue zones you can see lifestyle is part of a community.

The greater you attempt to avoid death, the greater the chance you will die during the attempt

[@curtislaketek2822]

How so? Eating well and exercising will increase death risk?

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Maybe

[@FULLmeltHASH]

Bryan Johnson is good.... I love the way he sings on You Shook Me All Night Long

[@LoriEscher-f1m]

If it makes him happy - go for it. It’s not a practical way of life for us mere mortals but so what. As long as people aren’t being taken advantage of with his products.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Well said

[@Judy-fi7ce]

Hello from America, where the rest of the world is wondering, (including myself) why'd you elect this guy?? Vent your feelings and live longer :) But regarding Bryan Johnson and his lifestyle, he goes to extremes and beyond, IMO. Ninety supplements a day is insane. Many supplements are not approved by the FDA and have side effects. And like you mentioned, where is his time to enjoy life? Right now, this is what he enjoys, apparently. He's young and his body can tolerate what he's doing. As he ages, he will notice that the body changes with age, and he will need to accommodate that. I don't think there are too many people that would be willing or able to follow all that he does and incorporate it into their lifestyle. Diet and exercise and rest, yes, by all means, pay attention to these. Thanks for all the content you share. It's always interesting.

[@dexterlockhart425]

Question. So if Metformin is supposed to help you live longer why are the Type 2 diabetics dying younger than their counterparts?

[@neyral.castillo1696]

I'm from Honduras I never heard of that Island 🤔 . If he is doing this and makes him happy good for him .

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Agree

[@priestguardian2587]

meanwhile in the RW I am watching this eating a bowl of potatoe chips after eating a plate of spegettii with processed frozen meatballs and drinking a beer at age 65? Gues that makes me a dead man walking :((((

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Well, time will tell. But for him honestly it seems that it makes him happy so it isn’t hurting anybody else.

[@marylynnmazzocco5367]

Does he have friends, belief in something beyond himself and enjoyment?

[@TalkingWithDocs]

He is working on those things

[@CowboyPants-h5p]

sounds kind of Obsessive don't you think we are all going to die Eventually? Down the road It's not like you can turn back time It sure would be nice

[@TalkingWithDocs]

It certainly is extreme. That is undeniable.

[@heathermcnally2576]

He is affecting children's thoughts and putting bad ideas into mentally unstable people. It is moms and dads that are upset.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Not totally sure what is meant by your comment. We think it’s not unreasonable to try to be healthy and no one wants to die a premature death, but his views are extreme certainly.

[@cooksquotes]

Docs; I look at the Netflix documentary’s giving us an understanding on how Human DNA can be repaired to improve Human health!

Agree!

[@CatholicSatan]

Isn't there research that shows hypochondriacs are more likely to die early compared to their peers? Yes: "All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality Among Individuals With Hypochondriasis" JAMA Dec2023. Over stressing about your health is debilitating it seems!

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Interesting. He wants to live longer but doesn’t think he has all sorts of disease so kind of different

[@anachronistofer]

I watched the doc. Is it me, or does Bryan Johnson not look right? There's something weird, pasty, and unnatural about his skin, like Data from Star Trek: TNG. He looks artificial. Maybe that's just how he is, but I've never seen anyone that looks quite like that.

[@TheGoldwing1950]

I felt that as well.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Yes, with all of the cosmetic work, he has had to his face. It does look unnatural but there are lots of people walking around that have had Botox or filler that don’t look natural. This is not new. Whatever makes you happy.

[@Rannd]

I think the media gives Brian a bad rap. The stuff he is doing is amazing. He eats the same thing nearly everyday to keep a extremely specific baseline nutrition wise so when he does testing they can properly measure them. We don't have to do everything thing Brian does, but he does a lot that everyone can learn from and do in their lives. He also provides full documentation on his website that everyone can access for free without a "login". Also remember - Brian didn't have any control over the documentary.

[@45graham45]

But all of his supplements are processed food.

[@TalkingWithDocs]

Well, not really a supplements are not considered food. These are concentrated nutrients that are processed though. And we would agree with you or if you were implying that getting your nutrients from Whole Foods is better for sure.

Losing faith in your religion can be very liberating and a very good thing, not necessarily a knock. I am a doctor and the exam begins the moment you set eyes on your patient, with an overall impression of health. Bryan doesn’t ‘look’ healthy…

[@TalkingWithDocs]

It’s not a knock and sometimes necessary. But it undeniably does cause some stress, and as he said, it caused him some stress and being alienated from his children and his parents. We certainly were not judging or saying that he should’ve stayed in that religion.
