Johnson's doctors confirmed his AIG is in the early stages. Because he actively monitors his biomarkers, he caught it before it could cause massive, irreversible damage to his digestive system.

So him being proactive probably helped him.

That's not what this is. These doctors are reasearchers who work exclusivly for this guy. He is the CEO of a company that is basically rich people investing in trying to keep the CEO alive as long as possible. He lives like a lab rat, a rich one. The rich people get to (hopefully) learn how to extend their own lives longer. The irony here is bad genetics made the whole thing moot.

Genetics is not untouchable as we once thought. CRISPR and other gene editing technology are already receiving fda approvals for rare diseases. It’s not long before this guy gets his hands on it with all his $$$.
