Longevity Advocate Bryan Johnson Abstains From Coffee, Prioritizes ‘Gorgeous Stability‘
New York, NY – Bryan Johnson, the tech entrepreneur and founder of the “Blueprint” longevity project, deliberately avoids coffee and other stimulants like nicotine to maintain consistent energy levels and emotional balance, he revealed in recent interviews. johnson, known for his rigorous and highly-publicized pursuit of reversing aging, believes such substances introduce disruptive “spikes” that compromise daily equilibrium.
according to Johnson,his lifestyle – encompassing quality sleep,controlled nutrition,and regular exercise – allows his mind and body to operate in a state of “beautiful stability” without the need for artificial boosts. He described coffee as a “climbing drug,” noting he experienced emotional disconnection while consuming it and opted for complete elimination.
While abstaining from coffee, Johnson does allow for a limited intake – up to 60mg daily – of caffeine sourced from green tea or other less impactful mixtures.
This avoidance is part of a comprehensive, intensely disciplined routine. Johnson’s day begins at 4:30 am and includes detailed biometric monitoring, infrared and heat/cold exposure, intense physical training, and intermittent fasting, alongside a predominantly vegan diet supplemented with specific nutrients. His ultimate goal is to restore his organs to the functionality of an 18-year-old by age 46.
Johnson clarifies his approach isn’t a universal prescription, acknowledging that many individuals benefit from coffee consumption. However, he maintains that caffeine presents an “escalation risk” for his specific metabolism and longevity objectives. Experts corroborate this, emphasizing the wide variance in individual responses to caffeine, with potential impacts on sleep, anxiety, and heart rate.
Johnson frames his habits within a broader philosophy prioritizing sleep as the primary “medicine” for longevity, followed by a clean diet, consistent movement, environmental control, and the elimination of substances that disrupt the body’s natural rhythms, as reported by the Daily Mail.
