"A wealthy entrepreneur who spends more than $2 million a year and who has received blood from his teenage son and other young persons in his quest to achieve immortality, or at least stave off aging, reports that he has developed a rare disease that he says is causing “My stomach to eat itself.”
Biohacker Bryan Johnson, founder of online payments company Braintree, announced on social media that he has been diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis (AIG), an incurable autoimmune disease.
In a lengthy, nearly 2,000-word post on X, Johnson said, “My stomach is eating itself,” but declared that is “going to try and solve it.”
“AIG causes irreversible damage: nutritional deficiency, anemia, and over a long horizon, elevated cancer risk,” Johnson said. “When AIG is discovered today, standard medical care concedes defeat, stating that nothing can be done except managing the condition, no matter how awful or lethal the effects.”"

No, they aren't. You just said it's anti-inflammatory, and yet cortisol is your body's primary anti-inflammatory signaling molecule. Blunting cortisol will blunt your body's response to inflammation. And there's no need to boost your thyroid hormones if they aren't low. If you're already on the higher side of thyroid function it could push you towards hyperthyroidism.
Cortisol causes all sorts of problems.
The anti-inflammatory properties balance that out without the harm caused by too much cortisol.
Very few people have too little cortisol, or excess thyroid hormone. Those with both should obviously stay away from this herb.
Not that complicated a concept, really.
