Rapamycin Weekly: How I'm Experiencing the Pulse Effects

Posted by earlyrenee in Longevity & Anti-Aging - 1 points, 0 comments.

I started a 3–6 mg weekly rapamycin dose last month, and the first week I got a mild mouth sore that faded after a couple days. The half‑life is about 62 hours, so I'm guessing the low level stays in my system long enough to keep mTORkicking the brakes on growth. Since then, my sleep latency has improved a bit – I fall asleep faster and wake less at night. I also added 1–2 g of taurine daily because a 2023 study said it extended lifespan in rats; I thought it might help keep my mitochondria humming.
