rapamycin weekly dosing: my sleep and energy story

Posted by daph_l in Longevity & Anti-Aging - 2 points, 0 comments.

i started a low‑dose rapamycin protocol last month, taking 4 mg once a week. honestly, i was curious about the reports of improved sleep and reduced inflammation. after the first few weeks i noticed that my nights felt deeper, with fewer awakenings.

by the third week my morning energy was steadier, and i could finish a full 10‑km run without that mid‑morning slump i usually got. i did the protocol with a 7‑day interval, and it seemed to fit nicely into my schedule, leaving no obvious side effects so far. i am also on a high‑protein diet with a bit of natto, so i thought maybe the combination of spermidine from the food and rapamycin was helping the autophagy process.

i would love to hear from others who have done a similar weekly schedule – did you notice the same sleep benefit, or did the effect wear off after a while? any tips on timing or timing with meals would be great. thanks for any insight.
