I’m per week away from my one 12 months anniversary on Rapamune and have experimented with doses between 5 and 12mg/wk (at 72kg). Concerningly, in a well being take a look at following 6 weeks at 12mg/wk a variety of blood and well being markers had moved within the flawed route.
Whenever you learn folks’s anecdotes relating to any complement you overwhelmingly discover subjective statements: NMN gave me extra power; L theanine helped my focus; valerian helps me sleep… Rapamycin decreased my aches and pains and so forth.
I’m more and more leaning in direction of the philosophy that results are solely legitimate in case you can measure them. I actually assume it’s time the neighborhood held itself to account so inform me, what goal metrics have you ever seen enhance by taking rapamycin? For me personally the one constructive change has been 5kg weight reduction.

I can definitely perceive using the philosophy that results are solely legitimate in case you can measure them. Nonetheless, I discover evaluating the impact of rapamycin extra advanced. Probably, based mostly on research, an impact of rapamycin is “slowing the clock”. ie for instance, you age as a lot as you’d have aged in 5 years on the level that ten years have handed. You wouldn’t be capable to measure this, though it might be an extremely useful impact. Equally, suppose taking rapamycin decreased your danger of getting most cancers by 50%. You wouldn’t comprehend it.
I do know it’s not scientific, however, I really feel I have to take rapamycin as a result of there may be some probability I get advantages that can not be measured. These advantages may very well be large.
Possibly it’s simply wishful pondering on my half.
I agree. My complete life – age 74 – not solely in well being / vitamin, however in nearly each discipline / endeavor, solely generally are there “scientific” measurable markers. And in lots of circumstances, these markers are later discovered inaccurate, or not very helpful.
In nearly each area, the query just isn’t solely what did occur, however what might have occurred.
But we do have some goal markers, because of the worms, & mice in hundreds of experiments. That suggestions will not be totally customized, however it’s what we work with, particularly in a cutting-edge discipline.
Nonetheless, extra data can be helpful. And per Maveric78 above, some time again I instructed to Admin that historical past/outcomes of individuals taking Rapa for longevity functions, however whom stopped, and even died, can be helpful. (He thought that data wouldn’t be out there, as so few world-wide even take Rapa for apart from transplant functions.)
In all fields I’m involved with survival biasis. That’s, these on this website, & extol virtues of Rapa, possible don’t embody the failures. Most of us have realized extra from our failures than successes.
