Kerala-based liver specialist Dr Cyriac Abby Philips, popularly known as ‘The Liver Doc,’ has accused American tech millionaire Bryan Johnson, famous for his anti-ageing ventures, of selling “dangerous" supplements under the name of his startup, Blueprint.

Johnson launched Project Blueprint in 2020, a $2 million-a-year experiment aimed at reversing biological ageing through sleep optimisation, proper nutrition, and rigorous exercise.

The Liver Doc expressed his concerns on social media platform X, calling Johnson’s business practices “terrifying" and comparing him to convicted American biotech entrepreneur Elizabeth Holmes and Australian influencer Belle Gibson, who falsely claimed to have cancer.

“It is terrifying that people do not see Bryan Johnson as actually a well-evolved masculine form of fraudsters Elizabeth Holmes and Belle Gibson, selling both expensive and utterly useless investigations and peddling potentially dangerous snake oil supplements in the name of BLUEPRINT," the Indian doctor wrote in his post shared on Monday.

The liver expert further claimed that, unlike Elizabeth Holmes, who defrauded investors, Johnson was allegedly swindling “poorly informed health and science illiterates."

“While Belle Gibson told people she was dying, this gentleman is telling people he won’t die and created a cult around not dying. She was lying and he is too," he continued.

Johnson, who has made headlines for his extreme anti-ageing routine—spending millions to extend his life—quickly responded to the allegations. He posted a reply, asking, “Cyriac why are you so angry? Who hurt you?"

He defended his Blueprint program, emphasising that its products, including extra virgin olive oil, proteins, nuts, and nutrients, are backed by “independent and robust scientific evidence".

“They are third party tested. The certificates of analysis are publicly available. They are affordably priced," Johnson added.
