Human biologist, co-founder of 10X Health and host of The Ultimate Human. A former mortality-risk analyst, he built his method around gene testing and fixing nutrient deficiencies, methylation first, plus morning sunlight, breathwork, cold and hydrogen water; he discusses peptide therapies openly on his podcast. Dana White publicly credits Brecka's protocol with transforming his health.

Kayla Barnes-LentzBiohacker and co-owner of LYV wellness clinics who documents her protocol publicly on the Longevity Optimization podcast. Her days are structured around circadian light, morning sun, evening blue-light blocking, sauna and cold contrast, red-light therapy, a whole-food organic diet, no alcohol, and clinician-supervised therapies she discusses openly.
Peter AttiaPhysician and author of Outlive, focused on the science of longevity, what he calls Medicine 3.0. His own regimen centers on zone 2 cardio, strength and stability work, protected sleep, and relentless metabolic monitoring, all aimed at training for the "centenarian decathlon." He discusses emerging therapies, including peptides, with clinical caution on his podcast The Drive.
Dana WhiteUFC President and CEO who publicly overhauled his health after human biologist Gary Brecka told him, from bloodwork alone, that he had about a decade to live. White credits the data-driven protocol, including an 86-hour water fast he described publicly, cleaned-up eating, daily training and cold/heat exposure, with dramatic weight loss and reversing multiple risk markers.
Wim HofDutch extreme athlete known as The Iceman, holder of multiple cold-endurance world records and creator of the Wim Hof Method. His days are built around the two pillars he teaches: cycles of deep rhythmic breathing done first thing on an empty stomach, and deliberate daily cold exposure, plus the yoga and mobility practice that underpins his records.
