He had heart surgery and died, perhaps due to a complication related to the surgery. He started using rapamycin at the age of 72, which is a pretty old age to start using rapamycin, but he still got a lot of benefit from it. I wish he had used a senolytic agent as well. Like dasatinib+quercetin.

So sad to hear this. Such a big loss for the rapamycin community.

Dr. Green definitely bought himself time and quality of life during that time. Further he used that gift heroically, restarting a boutique practice, leaving a number of patients better off in what would have been otherwise declining years. He left a legacy and launched an industry that is taking off meteorically. Such an accomplishment in oneā€™s last decade.

He may have used Dasatinib + Quercitin. He prescribed it for me. He read extensively about all manner of things related to health and aging. Advanced glycation end products were one of his many concerns. He was probably a bit more adventurous in prescribing for himself than he was for patients. The first time I met him there was no place for me to sit in his office because there were so many stacks of journals and papers on all the chairs. He moved a stack of paper about 2 ft high off of a chair and I sat down. The whole stack had been about Parkinsonā€™s.

Did he express an opinion on what to do to minimize this risk?

I was looking at his website ā€¦ https://rapamycintherapy.com/
Such a great mind. A real loss. I wonder what support is there to update or keep everything going? Itā€™ll be a pity to have this website come down at the point the yearly website fee isnā€™t paid.

He recommended a book titled 'The Age+less diet ". I have not read it yet.

Thanks. Age-less Dietā€¦written by Helen Vlassara MD. I know of herā€¦she is a scientist who was involved in the creation of the Hba1c test. Iā€™ve heard her talk on podcasts; she is good. I tried to get her on my podcast but could not reach her (retired). I try to follow the basic advice she (and the Anti-AGE Foundationā€¦episode 112 link below) offered: avoid foods cooked by frying, grillingā€¦use wet and cooler means of cooking (steaming, soups) vs dry and hot (causing burning / browning).

He only became interested in aging and rejuvenation, and consequently found out about rapamycin, due to his own rapid health deterioration some 15-20 years ago. It turned out he had had an undiagnosed heart condition making up for lost time in destroying his health. He figured he wouldnā€™t live for another 5 years at the time unless he did something drastic. Thatā€™s what prompted him to go down the rabbit hole and subsequently discover Blagosklonnyā€™s publications. The rest is history. So no, I wouldnā€™t be worried at all. Iā€™d be reassured. In his interviews he looked like someone who should have kicked the bucket a long time before.

Both alan and mikhail got the covid vaccine. Mikhail got a stroke afterward.

Such a waste of talent, be the best guys in the feild yet fail on such obvious thing (avoiding the clot shot)

We really need to make this public. so people dont just think they got health issues out of nowere. Almost every shot is banned in europe due to just this

Although you may be right that there may be problems with the Covid vaccines, that does not mean there is no truth that we should try to identify.

Hence saying things like:

ā€œAlmost every shot is banned in europe due to just thisā€

Is not something I wish to waste my time on reading.

I know I can simply block your posting, but you should be aware that it is important to say things that are at least arguably true.

You are aware right that we got 20-30% excess death in many countries post the shot right.

You should watch the documentary ā€œdied suddenlyā€ regarding the mass death.

How is this even news to you? imagine that you write ā€œI could block your postingā€ - when talking about side effects on the most toxic medication in history.

You said "Almost every shot is banned in europe due to just thisā€

That is not only just completely wrong, but also something you donā€™t even justify. Hence I will simply block you.

What is going to happen to all of his patients ?

It would be great if someone (a doctor) can get hold of the data on rapamycin from his patients. It would be a gold mine for rapamycin data.

Patient record / HIPPA confidentiality laws probably prevent that - but I do agree it would have been valuable if it could be anonymized.

Perhaps @DrFraser can make the pitch to takeover the patient base.

Iā€™d love to - and have the capacity to do so! People are surprised when they fill in a form, and I can see them often same day, and almost always within 3 days.

Do we know anyone to contact? I met with 2 of Dr. Greenā€™s patients today who will be seeing me. Iā€™d love to take on that mission building on a great base. Sadly I only plan to work another 44 years ā€¦ and try and keep all my patients alive until then.

Dr. Green saw patients in every state - it is illegal to do so without being licensed in each state, unless one sees them in one of the states youā€™re licensed. The site of practice of medicine with telemedicine is the place the patient is at. I appreciate this isnā€™t prosecuted too often - but I have 7 states I will see patients in AL, AZ, CA, FL, KY, TN, WA.
