I think the key here is understanding how telomeres work. They naturally shorten with age, but the idea that a 90-day hyperbaric protocol could reverse that by 20 years is a stretch. Telomere length is influenced by a complex mix of genetics, lifestyle, and environmental factors. A single intervention, no matter how promising, isn't likely to have such a dramatic effect. Plus, the quote sounds like it's from a non-scientific source—no specifics on the study, no peer review. That’s a red flag. If it were real, it would be everywhere.

The study mentioned sounds more like anecdotal hype than solid science. Telomere changes don't happen that rapidly or dramatically from a single intervention—especially without proper controls or replication.

The issue isn't just about the study's quality—it's that the claim defies what we know about biological aging. Telomere changes are gradual, not sudden, and a 20-year reversal in 90 days isn't just unproven, it's biologically implausible.
