A sun tan is not a sign of health. It’s a sign that your skin has been damaged and will sag, wrinkle and discolor faster as time passes.

🧪 WHAT IS BLUEPRINT?
Like past explorers, I’ve asked an unthinkable question: is death still inevitable or is a new era of longevity here?

After selling my company Braintree Venmo for $800 million, I built a team of dozens of medical professionals, became the most measured person in history, and achieved arguably the best comprehensive biomarkers in the world.

And I share everything with you, for free.

After having poor health habits as a kid, running myself into the ground from 20 years of building companies, and a decade of chronic depression, now, at the chronological age of 46, my biomarkers are in the top 1%.

And not just the top 1% of 46 year olds, but on many markers, such as my cardiovascular fitness, I’m in the top 1% of 18 year olds.

Top 1%: Speed of aging
Top 1%: Muscle mass & function
Top 1%: Fat mass
Top 1%: Inflammation
Top 1%: Cardiovascular
Top 1%: Bone mass
Top 1%: Sleep
Top 1%: Combined clinical markers
Top 1%: Nighttime erections

Blueprint is an algorithm, built by science, that takes better care of me than I can myself.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Recognize tan as a sign of skin damage, not health

Contrary to the belief that a tan is a sign of health, it is actually a sign that your skin has been damaged by sun exposure.

#skin

#sunlight

Seek sun exposure when UV index is below 3

For safe sun exposure, a good rule of thumb is to get it when the UV index is below 3, which is typically earlier in the morning and later in the afternoon.
