I have the telomerase activity of a teenager.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
A protocol equivalent to mine was tested in healthy people age >64 and showed a significant increase in average telomere length of >20%.
hyperbaric oxygen therapy 90 min (5x/wk) . 20 min O2, 5 min break, 2 ATA chamber
45 min Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy 2 ATA
+ telomeres that are age 10
I've started a new longevity protocol: hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT).
My HBOT protocol is based on the protocol demonstrated to improve telomere length and reduce immunosenescence Ref (8).

my telomeres say I'm 10 years old, and + and regenerate at 12 year old vibrancy
I'm using HBO for a few objectives. One is for longevity, two is for performance, and three is to potentially elongate my telomeirs.
I had invested a lot of time. I had spent 90 days. I had shifted my entire life to accommodate this therapy. I sat in this little teeny tiny cube, 5,400 minutes, and it was worth it.
I had a baseline measurement in March of 2024 and my measurement was 11.4 KB. After, HBOT, they measured at 11.7 KB. That's a 2.6%, increase.
So my protocol is to complete 60 sessions in 90 days. I will be doing sessions of 90 minutes.
And I had no detectable levels of systematic inflammation in my body. That is a wild result. Inflammation is often times the biggest culprit of problematic disease and dysfunction inside the body. It's called inflammaging. And I had nothing in my body. So it took HBOT took inflammation in my body to zero.
Just from head to toe, there was something interesting throughout the entire body.
I had mine measured and they are the biological age of a 10-year-old.
