Tech billionaires used performance drugs in secret. Now they're selling a revolution. [View all]

LAS VEGAS - This past week, in a city built on risk and reward, billionaire biohacker Christian Angermayer went about his wellness routine.

He injected himself with weight loss drugs, testosterone, and legal-but-off-label growth hormones, designed to reduce deep layers of fat and regenerate his cells. To feel more outgoing, he added the peptide oxytocin, typically used by doctors to stimulate labor. For focus, he popped a pill of his usual stimulant, normally prescribed for sleep apnea. He logged tens of thousands of steps, sprinting to meetings at his hotel and doing circles around a large swimming pool.

Angermayer was getting ready to show the world that the experimental health protocols embraced by longevity-obsessed business elites like himself can work for top athletes - and, ultimately, the entire world.

Angermayer, who at 48 looks a decade younger, is the co-founder and funder of the Enhanced Games, a Silicon Valley-backed athletic tournament that breaks a cardinal rule of sports by encouraging athletes to take steroids, hormones, peptides and any legal performance-enhancing drug.
