A new video update on Dr. Stanfield’s Rapamycin for Aging Muscle clinical trial. He seems to not yet have much traction on the funding, with only $30,000 of the required $350,000+ committed. I hope he’s able to get more support on this. We need many more clinical trials on Rapamycin:

I have my reservations on this guy. He seems to be more interested earning commission on the supplement’s he is promoting. And the supplement companies he stand behind is the most expensive and speculative ones out there in the market place.

I had some communication with Dr. Stanfield today - he indicates that in 3 months we will have the results of this trial. Also @KiwiGuy born in Dunedin … NZ citizen – I envy you living in N.Z.

@DrFraser Dunedin is a lovely part of the country! I was down that way recently - visiting Invercargill and walking the Hump Ridge Track. Absolutely stunning!

Cool! I don’t follow this guy at all, and the video in the first post seems to be private. Is there anywhere a description of what this trial is actually investigating? Matt K seems to say something about muscle mass. Is it an interventional trial?

My understanding is giving a modest dose of Rapamycin weekly to elderly individuals vs. placebo. Then having them exercise (I think a stationary bicycle) for a number of minutes/week. The theory is improvement in lean body mass for those on Rapamycin. I do not believe dosage is adjusted by weight or gender and testing for levels isn’t being done. I might be wrong, but I recall it was 5 mg/week - so lower dose than what I’d generally use.

On the topic of Dr. Brad, he just released a Microvitamin+ powder that includes extra things like creatine, collagen, psyllium husk, taurine, etc. so I just got some. Tastes good in my morning smoothie.

Dr. Stanfield has just livestreamed preliminary results from his Rapamycin trial. Here are the highlights:

  1. Getting results at the end of this week in older adults and exercise strength on Rapamycin.
  2. There’s a definite divergence in the group. He’s not sure which group is performing better (as he’s blinded to which group is which).
  3. He mention’s BJ’s Rapamycin video
  4. He’s doing a PhD in Rapamycin Research if the trial works out.
  5. Not enough info on humans on Methylene Blue

It will be deleted soon.

It’s still up so I had a chance to catch it. He does a nice Q&A too. He shouldn’t delete it because it was good. Worth the watch.
