If it’s what’s on the inside that counts, then Bryan Johnson is considered a perfect specimen.
The 47-year-old biohacker claimed to have removed all toxins from his plasma, even without the use of his “blood child,” declaring his plasma to be “liquid gold.”
Johnson, who has become famous for his multimillion-dollar quest to reverse his age, recently underwent total plasma exchange (TPE), in an effort to remove “unnatural contaminants” from his body.
In the exchange, all of their plasma was removed and replaced with albumin, which is the most prominent circulating protein found in plasma.
“The goals of the therapy are to eliminate toxins from my body,” the California-based businessman wrote. in a post for X, formally known as Twitter.
The 47-year-old biohacker claimed to have removed all toxins from his plasma, even without the use of his “blood child,” declaring his plasma to be “liquid gold.”
According to the National Institutes of Health, TPE is a procedure in which the patient’s blood is passed through an apheresis machine and the filtered plasma is removed and discarded with a reinfusion of red blood cells, along with replacement fluid, such as plasma or albumin, to the patient.
Johnson, who caused a stir when he exchanged blood with his teenage son and elderly father last year, says “the evidence is emerging.”
“Others use TPE for autoimmune disorders, blood disorders, neurological conditions, transplant-related complications, and replacement of missing plasma components,” he explained.
According to the millionaire, the TPE operator told him that his plasma is the “cleanest” he has ever seen.
‘As we normally do, we complete a series of baseline measurements before this therapy, including toxins, but also other things, such as speed of aging, age of organs, microplastics and many other biomarkers. I will do six treatments in total,” he shared.
‘The operator, who has been doing TPE for nine years, said my plasma is the cleanest he has ever seen. By far. He couldn’t get over it,’ he boasted.
After the plasma exchange, which took about two hours to complete, he stated that the operator “didn’t dare” throw away the plasma.
‘I was imagining all the good I could do in the world. On people’s faces as PRP therapy. In your body, rejuvenating organs,’ he listed.
Johnson then said there is “probably” a way to auction or donate his plasma in the next round, calling it “liquid gold.”

Biohacking and Johnson’s diet have transformed his appearance, as shown in 2018 (left) and 2023 (right).
In the exchange, Talmage (left), Johnson’s then 17-year-old son, donated his youthful blood to his father (right), who in turn donated plasma to his father Richard, then 70 years old.
He then referenced his infamous blood exchange, stating that when his father received 1 liter of his plasma, his aging rate slowed by 25 years and stayed that way for six months.
“We don’t know if it was because of my superplasma or if it was because of the extraction of his plasma, but the results are interesting either way,” he said.
In the comments on the post, Johnson wrote that plasma exchanges can remove “unnatural pollutants that our body, including the liver, kidneys and immune system, are not capable of removing, including microplastics and other POPs (organic pollutants). persistent) similar”.
According to Dr. Mena Mirhom, assistant professor of clinical psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center, searching for alternative medical trends could indicate a different problem.
“When we find ourselves pursuing an experimental medical trend that is not scientifically proven, it can be a good opportunity to pause and consider the risks and benefits and whether there is an underlying problem that we are masking, such as body dysmorphic disorder,” he explained to the DailyMail.com.
“From a medical point of view, it is not recommended for a person who is already healthy,” he continued. “This is because there are certainly risks of side effects.”
At the beginning of the year, the technology mogul stated that he now only celebrates his birthday every 19 months, managing to delay aging in his quest for eternal youth.
In a video posted to YouTube, Johnson claimed that he has reduced his anti-aging process by an index of 0.64, which he claims is his “personal best.”
“This approximately means that for every 12 months that pass now I only age 7.6 months,” boasts the businessman, who claims to have gone back five years in time.
According to the biohacker, a major part of his age reduction has to do with his diet, which he and his team have coined the Blueprint diet.
