Hi Everyone, @bryan_johnson is in India. And longevity is the new buzzword. Only one of these statements is true. In 2020, I realised my body was older than I could’ve comprehended. And that's where my story begins. In July 2020, I got COVID. A full body check-up that year revealed a few things – High cholesterol High triglycerides Low B12 (126 pg/ml) Low D3 And pre-diabetic. I took the first steps – reduced my alcohol consumption and focused on nutritious meals. Despite the LOW FODMAP diet, my stomach issues escalated. Another round of tests (endoscopy and ultrasound) told me that I was a walking store of diseases. A bacterial infection H. Pylori. Ulcer. Fatty liver. GERD. Villous atrophy. The standard protocol for H Pylori infection is to take 14 days of antibiotics, four antibiotics every day. I did that. And I felt better for some time. Until I lost 11 KGs in 1 month is not. While having 3 large meals and 2 snacks. No calorie deficit of any kind. I did another round of tests to rule out Tuberculosis and the deadly C word. The tests came out negative and my gut was in very good shape. The doctor said it was in my head. Anti-depressants were an option (took them for 3 days) but I still felt miserable. I needed answers. This was when I came across systems biology (I was clear that it was the future of health care). Did a metabolomics test and - Mitochondrial dysfunction Lactate of pyruvate ratio was 338 (it should be 10-20) IBS diarrhoea. Low platelet levels and a rate of decline of 10K X 10^3/ uL per month The traditional sickcare model was failing me. So I went back to studying. And got in touch with a functional medicine expert in India. For the first time in 18 months, I was equipped with more data and a personalised protocol that looked VERY different from 4 nutritionists and 5 doctors I worked with. Cut to 2023, my biomarkers were in the optimal range (and continue to be today). I stopped taking most of my supplements. My stomach was healed. My absorption started to get better. My B12 – 432 pg/ml. The “personal” spilled into work. And this time, it wasn’t a sabbatical but the second stint of life. I met my co-founders @gehani and @sanmaya , and we set out to find a deeper thesis on what it will take to build a world-class longevity startup out of India. In the last few months, we’ve run pilots with real users by getting them to do blood tests on 150+ biomarkers and working closely with them to understand their issues. Majority of the users? Diabetes. Gut issues. Auto-immune conditions. Cardio-vascular issues. It told us one thing – 30s are the new 50s. Today, we’re designing a system for a long life. Only for the people who know they want to live a long life and are here to find out how. Thanks to @bryan_johnson, the world is ready for this! P.S. He is in India this week and speaking in Mumbai today with @deepigoyal. Not a better day than this to launch FOXO and make Indians live longer and unlock Life++.

While creating a whole new category of products sounds exciting, it's also brutally hard. Take Google Glass, for eg. it was a great innovative product but it failed because it didn't address a clear consumer need. So how do you do it? Here's how: bit.ly/3W1T6hi
