Advanced Longevity Plan (Biohacker)reasoning
Develop a cutting-edge 3-month longevity plan for a biohacker.
Z.ai: GLM 5
This comprehensive 3-month protocol is designed for the advanced biohacker. It integrates synergistic systems: metabolic flexibility, hormetic stress, cognitive enhancement, and recovery optimization.
Disclaimer: This plan is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult with a physician before starting new supplements or rigorous exercise protocols.
The Infrastructure: Wearables & Data
To biohack effectively, you must quantify. You will need:
- Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM): (e.g., Abbott Libre or Levels) to track glycemic variability.
- HRV Tracker: (e.g., Oura Ring or WHOOP) for recovery and nervous system readiness.
- Sleep Tracker: (Oura or Eight Sleep) for deep/REM sleep latency.
- Biomarker Baseline: Get blood work done before starting (Lipid panel, HbA1c, CRP, Testosterone/Estrogen, Vitamin D, IGF-1).
Month 1: Metabolic Flexibility & Inflammation Reset
Goal: Switch from glucose to fat burning, lower baseline inflammation, and establish sleep architecture.
Dietary Protocol: Ketoflex 12/12
- Framework: A modified ketogenic diet (approx. 70% Fat, 20% Protein, 10% Carbs) with an emphasis on nutrient density.
- Feeding Window: 12 hours eating / 12 hours fasting (gradually moving to 14/10 by week 4).
- Foods:
- Fats: MCT oil, Avocado, EVOO, Grass-fed butter.
- Protein: Wild-caught salmon, Grass-fed beef, Organ meats (liver capsules or fresh) 2x/week.
- Excluded: Grains, processed sugar, vegetable oils (canola, soybean).
Supplement Stack (Month 1)
- Morning (With Fat):
- Vitamin D3/K2: 5,000 IU / 100mcg (Immune & hormonal base).
- Omega-3 (High DHA/EPA): 2g (Neuro-inflammation).
- Magnesium L-Threonate: 1g (Brain bioavailability).
- Pre-Bed:
- Glycine: 3g (Sleep quality/thermoregulation).
- Magnesium Bisglycinate: 400mg (Relaxation).
Exercise Protocol: Aerobic Base Building
- Zone 2 Training: 3x per week, 45 mins. (Maintain a conversational pace; roughly 60-70% max HR). This builds mitochondrial efficiency.
- Mobility: Daily 10 mins (Functional Range Conditioning).
Stress Resilience: HRV Tuning
- Technique: 10 mins of "Box Breathing" (4-4-4-4) upon waking to shift the nervous system into parasympathetic mode before checking phones.
Month 2: Hormesis & Cognitive Enhancement
Goal: Induce controlled stress (fasting/exercise) to upregulate resilience pathways (Nrf2, BDNF) and introduce nootropics.
Dietary Protocol: Deep Ketosis & Fasting
- Feeding Window: 16:8 Intermittent Fasting (skip breakfast).
- The 3-Day Fast: In Week 2, perform a 72-hour water fast (electrolytes only). This triggers autophagy (cellular cleanup) and immune system reset.
- Refeed: Break the fast with bone broth and light proteins, avoiding carbs initially to prevent refeeding syndrome.
Supplement Stack (Month 2)
- Morning:
- NMN (Sublingual): 500mg – 1g (NAD+ precursor for energy/sirtuin activation).
- Resveratrol: 1g (Synergistic with NMN for longevity pathways).
- Creatine Monohydrate: 5g (Cognitive & muscular power).
- Cognitive Stack (Cycled 5 days on, 2 days off):
- Lion’s Mane Mushroom (8:1 Extract): 1g (NGF stimulation).
- Alpha-GPC: 300mg (Acetylcholine precursor).
- Bacopa Monnieri: 300mg (Memory consolidation).
- Pre-Bed:
- Apigenin: 50mg (Promotes calmness/GABAergic effect).
Exercise Protocol: HIIT & Hypertrophy
- Strength: 3x per week. Compound lifts (Deadlift, Squat, Bench). 5 sets of 5 reps. Focus on mechanical tension.
- HIIT: 1x per week. "Norwegian 4x4" Protocol (4 mins at 90% max HR, 3 mins active recovery, repeated 4 times). Maximum VO2 max gains.
Advanced Recovery: Thermal Stress
- Sauna: 3x week, 20 mins at 175°F+ post-workout. Induces Heat Shock Proteins (repair protein folding).
- Cold Exposure: End showers with 30-60 seconds cold. Increases dopamine and brown fat activation.
Month 3: Longevity Maintenance & Peak Performance
Goal: Integrate advanced peptides/senolytics, periodize training for peak output, and solidify habits.
Dietary Protocol: Carb Cycling
- Strategy: Keto baseline, but add "Targeted Ketogenic Diet" (TKD). Consume 25-50g clean carbs (berries, sweet potato) immediately pre-workout to fuel high-intensity output without spiking insulin the rest of the day.
- Protein Pulsing: High protein days (2g/kg body weight) on training days; moderate protein (1g/kg) on rest days to stimulate mTOR selectively.
Supplement Stack (Month 3)
- Senolytics (Week 1 only):
- Fisetin: 20mg/kg body weight (take for 2 consecutive days). Kills senescent "zombie" cells.
- Note: Do not take Fisetin continuously.
- Morning:
- Spermidine: 10mg (Autophagy induction).
- PQQ: 20mg (Mitochondrial biogenesis).
- Pre-Bed:
- Tryptophan: 500mg (If sleep latency issues persist).
- Note: Cycle off Nootropics for 1 week this month to prevent tolerance.
Exercise Protocol: Power & Flow
- Power: 2x week. Plyometrics and Kettlebells. Explosive movements.
- Endurance: 1x week. Long, slow distance (Zone 2) for 90+ mins.
- Recovery: Deep tissue massage or foam rolling daily.
Stress Resilience: Neurofeedback Concepts
- Technique: Use a Muse headband or similar EEG device for 10 mins daily. Practice maintaining "Calm" brainwaves (Alpha/Theta). This increases cortical thickness and emotional regulation.

Michelin Star Recipe Designplanning
Design an innovative, multi-component dish worthy of a 3-star Michelin restaurant.
Z.ai: GLM 5
Dish Title: "The Ivory Arch: A Study in Decay and Renewal"
Conceptual Narrative
This dish is a meditation on the life cycle of the forest floor, specifically the moment where decay fuels new life. It centers on the polar pairing of Roasted Bone Marrow (representing the structural end of life, rich, fatty, and primal) and White Chocolate (representing purity and sweetness, usually confined to dessert).
By emulsifying the cocoa butter of the white chocolate with the rendered fats of the marrow, we create a "blonde meat butter" that is neither sweet nor purely savory, but a bridge between the two. This is contrasted with the sharp acidity of Morello Cherry (echoing the blood/viscera) and the earthiness of activated charcoal and rye, creating a dish that looks like a piece of abstract art but tastes like the depths of winter turning into spring.
The Components
- Core: Smoked Bone Marrow & White Chocolate "Parfait"
- Acid: Morello Cherry & Hibiscus Gelée
- Texture: Charred Rye & Activated Charcoal "Soil"
- Aromatics: Candied Douglas Fir Tips
- Finish: Oscietra Caviar and Pickled Red Veined Sorrel
Sourcing Notes
- Bone Marrow: Source from a local artisan butcher. Request "canoe cut" femur bones from grass-fed, dry-aged beef (28 days minimum) for a deeper, nuttier flavor profile.
- White Chocolate: Use a high-end, single-origin white chocolate (such as Valrhona Ivoire or Zotter) with a high cocoa butter content (30%+). Avoid compound chips.
- Douglas Fir Tips: These are the bright green new growth tips of the Douglas Fir tree. They can be foraged sustainably in spring or sourced from specialty foraging suppliers like Regalis Foods or Mikuni Wild Harvest.
- Caviar: Oscietra is preferred for its nutty finish, which complements the marrow.
Advanced Culinary Techniques Used
- Cryo-Roasting: Freezing the marrow before roasting to control rendering.
- Hybrid Emulsification: Combining animal fat and cocoa butter.
- Spherification (Reverse): For the cherry yolk (optional variation, here we use a gelée for texture).
- Smoke Infusion: Using a smoking gun with cold smoke.
Detailed Instructions
1. The Marrow & White Chocolate Parfait
This component challenges the palate by removing the "meaty" texture of marrow and replacing it with the snap of chocolate, while retaining the savory depth.
Ingredients:
- 500g Beef Bone Marrow (soaked)
- 200g High-quality White Chocolate
- 50g Whole Milk
- 10g Sea Salt flakes
- 5g Smoked Paprika (mild)
Method:
- Preparation: Soak the bones in ice water for 24 hours, changing the water every 8 hours, to draw out blood and impurities.
- Extraction: Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F). Roast bones for 20 minutes. Remove the marrow from the bone while hot. Pass the rendered marrow through a fine chinois sieve.
- Cryo-Roast: Spread the marrow on a parchment-lined tray, freeze solid, then roast again at 220°C for 5 minutes to achieve a brown butter aroma without burning. Chill.
- The Emulsion: Melt the white chocolate gently over a bain-marie. In a separate saucepan, gently heat the milk and the prepared marrow until fully liquid.
- The Merge: Slowly whisk the warm marrow mixture into the melted white chocolate. Use an immersion blender to ensure a stable emulsion. Add salt and smoked paprika.
- Setting: Pour into hemisphere silicone molds (3cm diameter). Freeze completely. Once solid, unmold and store in the freezer until plating.
2. Morello Cherry & Hibiscus Gelée
Provides the acidic "cut" needed to balance the fat.
Ingredients:
- 300g Morello Cherries (pitted)
- 100g Hibiscus flowers (dried)
- 50g Honey
- 4g Agar Aggar
Method:
- Vacuum seal cherries with hibiscus and honey. Cook sous-vide at 85°C for 1 hour.
- Remove hibiscus. Blend the cherries and juice until smooth. Pass through a super-fine sieve.
- Weigh the liquid. Bring to a boil. Whisk in Agar Agar (0.8% of liquid weight). Boil for 2 minutes.
- Pour into a shallow container to set (1cm height).
- Once set, cut into irregular geometric shards or dice finely for texture.
3. Charred Rye & Charcoal Soil
A textural element representing the earth.
Ingredients:
- 100g Rye Bread (stale)
- 5g Activated Charcoal powder
- 30g Butter (melted)
- Maldon Salt
Method:
- Blitz rye bread in a food processor to coarse crumbs.
- Toss crumbs with melted butter and charcoal powder.
- Spread on a baking tray and toast at 180°C until completely dry and aromatic (approx 15 mins).
- Cool and season with salt.
4. Candied Douglas Fir Tips
The "fresh" note.
Ingredients:
- Fresh Douglas Fir tips
- Simple Syrup (50/50)
Method:
- Blanch the tips in boiling water for 30 seconds to remove bitterness. Shock in ice water.
- Simmer gently in simple syrup for 10 minutes.
- Drain and dehydrate at 55°C for 4 hours until tacky but not brittle.
Exquisite Plating Presentation
The Vessel: Use a matte black, irregular ceramic slate or a piece of polished slate stone.
Assembly:
- The Base: Smear a deliberate, thick stroke of the Charred Rye Soil across the center of the slate, creating a "horizon line."
- The Structure: Place a frozen Marrow & White Chocolate Parfait hemisphere on the left side of the soil line. It should look like a white moon rising.
- The Bleed: Arrange the Morello Cherry Gelée shards cascading down the right side of the parfait, mimicking erosion or lava flow.
- The Garnish: Place three Candied Douglas Fir Tips standing upright in the soil to mimic trees.
- The Crown: Top the Marrow Parfait with a quenelle (approx 15g) of Oscietra Caviar. The black caviar against the white marrow/chocolate creates a stunning visual contrast.
- The Final Touch: Place 2-3 leaves of Pickled Red Veined Sorrel piercing the caviar.
Service Instruction: Serve immediately. The diner should eat the parfait while it is still cold and firm. As the spoon breaks the hemisphere, the diner experiences the snap of the chocolate shell, the creamy melt of the marrow, the pop of the salty caviar, the tart chew of the cherry, and the resinous crunch of the fir.
Chef’s Note: The goal is for the diner to question what they are eating. The white chocolate provides the texture, but the marrow provides the soul. It is a dish that tastes like a memory of a forest fire—ash, fat, wood, and new growth.
