Macrobians are a legendary race of long-lived people mentioned in ancient Greek, Roman, and Egyptian mythology. According to the stories, they were a group of people who lived in a far-off land and were blessed with exceptional longevity, with some accounts suggesting that they lived to be over 100 years old or even to the age of 200.

The term “Macrobians” comes from the Greek words “makros,” meaning “long,” and “bios,” meaning “life.” In some accounts, they were said to live in a land that was perpetually shrouded in mist and located at the western edge of the known world. They were also sometimes depicted as being tall and physically impressive.

The legend of the Macrobians is often associated with the idea of the “Fountain of Youth,” a mythical spring or pool of water that was believed to have the power to restore youth and vitality to those who drank from it. Some accounts suggested that the Macrobians knew the secret of the Fountain of Youth and used it to extend their already long lives even further.

Our company, Macrobian Biotech, takes inspiration from the Macrobians and their association with long life and vitality.
