Sorry, I have to ask again, did you miss the bit where HE IS HARVESTING HIS OWN SON?

Anyway, the blood plasma stuff isn't the only thing that's fascinating, everything else is too. Go read his website. It's unhinged: as noted by you, he harvests his son for himself, and himself for his father; he writes shit like "My mind is demoted, Self is elevated"; he pays $11/serve for what's basically broccoli, cauliflower, and lentils; he pays for pretty much every single measurement it's possible to take. It's interesting: all the hard-to-fake biomarkers for performance look good, from heart rate to VO2 to bench; he was having so much blood drawn that he got an ultrasound of his veins to see what damage he'd done; he posts gifs of a capsule camera going down his gastrointestinal tract.
He's an insane person who posts his life on the internet and I find him fascinating. The HARVESTING of HIS OWN SON is really, genuinely interesting, and it doesn't stop being interesting just because it's weird and unlikely to do much.
