Story time. 🎥🐾
Another dog owner:
“Have you heard about rapamycin for dogs?”
Me:
casually nods 🫠
Also me 4 hours later:
19 tabs open.
Reading clinical trials.
Explaining mTOR pathways to my dog like he asked.
Deep diving the Dog Aging Project like I’m applying for an internship.
Why am I like this 😂
Anyway, what started as a normal sidewalk conversation turned into a full-blown longevity spiral…
So obviously I wrote a blog about it-
✔ the potential benefits (longevity, improved health span, cognitive support 👀)
✔ the possible drawbacks (side effects, cost, long-term unknowns)
✔ and yes… how you can actually enroll your own dog in the study.
Because if we’re going down the rabbit hole, we’re going down responsibly.
Anyway, if you’d like the full breakdown without sacrificing your entire evening to Google Scholar, it’s on the blog. Link in bio.
