JAKARTA - American entrepreneur and biohacker Bryan Johnson is known for his extraordinary dedication in an effort to prolong his life. In an interview with William Rossy on the Sprouht podcast, Johnson admitted that he spends around US$2 million or Rp33 billion annually on a healthy life and various long-lived strategies.

Johnson's approach combines cutting-edge medical technologies such as plasma transfusions with very disciplined daily routines. The simple goal is to keep the body and mind in the best condition for a long time.

Although this 48-year-old man was able to finance various expensive treatments, Johnson emphasized that the main key to longevity lies in daily life habits, especially avoiding things that damage health.

For Johnson, this large investment is not just to try experimental treatment. He underwent a science-based holistic approach that combines advanced technology, close monitoring, and lifestyles very regularly.

Its routine includes measurable diets, observed sleep, hormonal settings, and daily exercise. All designed to slow down the aging process and improve the body's biological performance. Johnson criticized modern habits that he considered accelerating aging.

"We are trained with the wrong habits. People instill false narratives," he said, quoted from the Times of India website on Saturday, October 11, 2025.

Habits such as staying up late, chronic stress, staring at the screen for too long, not moving, and a bad diet are considered common. Though all of that speeds up the aging process and increases the risk of serious illness.

Three Habits Bryan Johnson Avoids For A Long Life

Johnson believes that his success in maintaining health comes not only from what he does, but also from what he avoids. Here are three main habits that he thinks are very destructive and should be avoided.

1. Smoking

Johnson calls smoking the worst thing a person can do to his body. Tobacco has been proven to cause various severe diseases such as cancer, heart problems, and respiratory problems.

"Avoiding cigarettes is the main foundation in a long-lived strategy," Johnson said.

2. Passive Lifestyle (less Moving)

"Not exercising is the second-largest mistake," Johnson said.

Regular physical activity is very important to maintain heart health, control weight, and maintain muscle strength. He emphasized consistency in exercise every day is the key to maintaining long-term health.

3. Stress and Doom Scrolling

In addition to taking care of the body, Johnson also pays attention to mental health. He calls chronic stress and the habit of scrolling (constantly reading negative news on the internet) as two very dangerous things.

"Stress is endless. We keep reading negative things." he said.

This habit triggers anxiety and mental fatigue. By avoiding excessive stress and limiting screen time, Johnson maintains clarity of mind and emotional resilience. For him these two factors are important for longevity.

Despite having access to advanced medical technologies, Johnson still believes a healthy lifestyle is the basis of everything. Disciplined personal rules and positive habits make every medical intervention underwent more effective and sustainable.
