Everyday, he takes 100 pills for his heart, eye, sexual and brain health. A report revealed that he takes 30 of the pills in the morning, and 70 more within the day.
Kurzweil used to ingest 250 pills everyday in the past. Since his discovery of “more bio-available forms” of the supplements, Kurzweil can now take 2 instead of 10 pills.
In addition, Kurzweil eats a rather bizarre diet. For breakfast, he consumes 85 calories of berries, 170 calories of dark chocolate infused with espresso, 150 to 350 calories of porridge, 100 calories of smoked salmon and mackerel, and 100 calories of soy milk.
Kurzweil, whose father passed away at the age of 58, believes that his unique diet and pills can make him live longer
“The common wisdom is it’s 80 percent genes, 20 percent lifestyle. If you’re diligent, it’s 90 percent intervention and 10 percent genes,” he said.
