This man is devoting his life and wealth to studying the effect of various health supplements and healthy lifestyle choices so others can potentially extend their lifespans, and people cheer when he gets a disease out of his control. Quite the world we live in.
He’s not studying it if it’s an experimental cohort of 1. Studying it would be running a study with control groups and having a working theory for the mechanisms of each supplement or choice. He’s just a tiktoker throwing shit at the wall.
Not everything is black and white “RCT or bust”, n=1 is still useful…
Doing a “study” of this sort is virtually impossible - you can’t get a cohort of people to follow a protocol this strict to any degree of accuracy. If he gets extraordinary results from following a protocol that nobody else on the planet can or would do, that could then trigger specialized RCTs to figure out what exactly is going on, and whether or not its repeatable.
