The provided text is an article from The Guardian's "Life and style" section, specifically an "Experience" piece written by Joseph Dituri about his 100-day stay living underwater for a scientific mission called Project Neptune 100. Dituri, a biomedical researcher and former naval diver, served as a human subject to study the effects of increased atmospheric pressure and prolonged confinement on the body, with potential applications for future space exploration, such as missions to Mars. The article details his daily routine inside Jules’ Undersea Lodge, including exercise, biomedical experiments, and unexpected encounters with marine life, such as a lobster named Fred and a nurse shark that eventually accepted his presence. Notably, Dituri reports several health benefits, including a boosted metabolism, weight loss, increased REM sleep, and signs of slowed aging, though he also mentions enduring the minor misery of a cracked tooth and briefly shrinking in height due to spinal compression.
