In medicine, if you look hard you will likely find something. That part that confuses me about his story is: not once does he mention the symptoms or side effects. Unless I somehow missed that part, or he's leaving them out for private reasons, his evidence and symptoms are entirely lab-based. Bodies are weird and do "abnormal" things in reaction to the environment, stress, physical activity, nutrition, etc. -- not everything your body does has to be a disease, a disorder, or something wrong. He talks about how if he hadn't spent (ungodly amounts of) money tracking his health over the years, he could be in worse off condition. But I'd bet that if he hadn't been tracking his labs, he would've lived a pretty normal life. Maybe the outcomes at 80+ years might be slightly different? But bodies will still naturally deteriorate over time and humans cannot live forever. | ||

Well I mean we have a control group consisting of just about every other person diagnosed with this disease, right? The wikipedia page [1] suggests you're probably right, especially given that he is male. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrophic_gastritis#Signs_and_s... | ||
