Consommer 20 à 30 grammes de peptides de collagène par jour

what it claims

Consume 20 to 30 grams of collagen peptides daily, ideally with vitamin C, to improve skin health and elasticity.

The use of collagen peptides for skin health is a widely studied field. Meta-analyses, including those published in the International Journal of Dermatology, confirm that oral collagen peptide supplementation can improve hydration and elasticity, and reduce visible wrinkles after several weeks. Vitamin C is an essential cofactor for endogenous collagen synthesis, making this combination biologically coherent and supported by mechanistic studies. However, the dose recommended by Bryan Johnson (20-30g) is significantly higher than the doses generally used in clinical studies, which often range between 2.5g and 10g per day to achieve significant effects. While the safety of these high doses is probable, the idea that a massive additional intake guarantees proportionally better results is not established by current scientific literature. It is, therefore, a personal optimization that exceeds the standard recommendations proven by randomized controlled trials (RCT).

The buzz from a Monster Energy comes almost entirely from its caffeine (and the sugar riding along with it) — the taurine and the B-vitamin megadoses on the can don't add a proven benefit beyond that.

Extreme, prolonged sun deprivation — like months aboard a nuclear submarine — is exactly the scenario where routine vitamin D supplementation makes real sense: several studies on submarine crews (Royal Navy, US Navy) show levels drop markedly within weeks without it.

For women in their 20s: four basics are enough — omega-3, vitamin D3, magnesium glycinate, and a quality probiotic — rather than 15 supplements.

Noli has read similar claims

Other advice in the Register that leans on the same research.

Regular sauna use (especially dry sauna) is associated with better cardiovascular longevity — but the claim that jumping into cold water right after "undoes" that benefit, or that icing your testicles protects fertility, are untested extrapolations layered on top of a real association.

Dry Finnish sauna is the best-studied form for long-term cardiovascular benefit, at several sessions a week; but the claim that sweating clears microplastics from the body has no source — it's a leap from a study about heavy metals, not microplastics.

There's a real mechanism behind part of this idea — heat trapped by tight underwear affects male fertility — but stretching it into a universal "anti-aging" habit (circulation, inflammation, skin barrier, hormones, deep sleep, for everyone) goes well beyond what the research shows.
