Buckminster Fullerenes are sixty carbon atoms indestructibly arrayed in a soccer ball shape that holds the promise of increasing longevity by up to 90%.

It's often referred to affectionately as buckyballs, but for the sake of brevity, I'll refer to it from here on as C60.

The bad news...

In 2020, the world was paralyzed by fear of COVID-19. Many of us now wear masks in public, either voluntarily or involuntarily, as a preventive measure to “stop the spread” and hopefully protect ourselves from contracting the virus. While the media and the state have compelled us to take this preventative measure there’s another epidemic that you hear a lot less about which is significantly more likely to ruin your life or the life of someone you care about...

For the vain and discerning biohacker, the aspirational beautiful immortal, Collagen is an irreplaceable anti-aging agent. While it will make you look younger, the profundity of its effects, demonstrated in over 400 clinical trials, is so much more than skin deep.

Listen to almost any health podcast and you'll hear the health-conscious raving about Collagen. It's very popular; it's called a "health craze" - here, we'll look at the science and evidence for Collagen and see if it lives up to the hype.

Biohacker Review: ESS60 is next-level C60...

In my nearly 9-years of obsession with biohacking, the super antioxidant C60 really stands out as a game-changing anti-aging agent.

As an antioxidant, C60 doesn't fundamentally hack anything in the body on its own; instead, it just helps the body take out the trash. At the root of aging and nearly all diseases are tiny free radicals bouncing around your body, causing havoc. Antioxidants, like C60, bind to these trouble-making molecules and escort them promptly out of the establishment. With that (very) simplified explanation of C60 out of the way, let's talk about ESS60 and my experience with it...

The Mitochondria that drive our trillions of individual cells and define the grace with which we age have been a particularly hot arena of scientific research over the past few years.

CoQ10 stands out as a particularly well-evidenced Mitochondrial support supplement.

Skulachev Ions (or SKQ1) are smart antioxidants; smart because they specifically target the Mitochondria that actually need them.

This makes SKQ1 a very potent, economical, and safe anti-aging agent, I'll make the case in this article that it's the cutting-edge anti-aging innovation of tomorrow.

It's an understatement to say that European Biohackers face a challenge in getting quality Nootropics, smart drugs, and anti-aging agents...

Almost weekly I will receive emails from Europeans who want to supplement their productivity, happiness, or cognition by using some of the proven, safe, and effective Nootropics that I have written so extensively about. Those in North America do have it easier when it comes to selection and ease of acquiring supplements.

• Europeans often have to deal with a multi-layered maze of their local country's and the European Union's regulations concerning a given Nootropic.
• Prescription requirements vary from country to country.
• VAT taxes vary from country to country.
• Shipping and customs concerns.

I've lived here in Europe myself for over half a decade and in a word, it's just trickier for European Biohackers. So in this article, I share some credible Europeansources...

NMN is a refined form of Vitamin B3 that feeds your Mitochondria the crucial fuel, NAD, that it needs to empower your health.

Elite anti-aging researchers at places like Harvard identify it as a promising molecular piece to the longevity puzzle and, most interestingly to me, the self-quantification community has identified it as a Nootropic; an enhancer of energy, motivation, and cognition.

When deciding on a Nootropic or anti-aging tool I urge biohackers to take a dual-pronged approach...

1. Look at the science on Pubmed - Pubmed is the international database of scientific studies, papers published in journals, and clinical trials. There are over a hundred scientific papers about NMN and 34 items of human research, which is a respectable body of science.
2. Consider the anecdotal evidence - Along with the published science you want to give some consideration to what rigorous self-experimenters are reporting about the effects of a given Nootropic or anti-aging agent. A single anecdote is not really useful, it's just an unverifiable data point, but if ten people are saying the same thing that's meaningful. On Longecity.org, the most popular anti-aging forum, you can find several hundred posts discussing the subjecting effects and documenting the blood test data resulting from NMN experimentation.

This article will delve into the science and some of the more credible anecdotal signals of what to expect from NMN.

Nootropics are more than smart drugs, increasingly the science being done by leading anti-aging researchers is showing us that they are crucial pieces to the puzzle of longevity.

Defeating death may sound totally hyperbolic, a pipe dream of transhumanists. Are you going to live forever because of any one of these Nootropics? Probably not, but they contribute powerfully toward escape velocity longevity.
