What I’m Doing to Become Biologically Younger with Jay Shetty
Tony Robbins tells Jay Shetty how he says he lowered his biological age to 51 at age 62, covering NMN, cold water, saunas, cryotherapy, bone training and sleep.
The gist
-
Robbins says he is 62 but biologically 51 after following David Sinclair's work on boosting NAD through its precursor NMN, and aims for 41 or 42.
-
Robbins says six NMN brands his team tested, priced $39 to $129 a month, contained none, likely because it breaks down within 30 days.
-
Robbins, an investor in the company, says MIB 626, a more stable NMN tested by Special Forces, should be available in 18 to 24 months.
-
Robbins starts every morning in freezing water to train discipline, does oxygen restriction training, and uses 2.5-minute cryotherapy sessions to clear inflammation.
-
Robbins cites research that 20 minutes at 160°F or more, four days a week, cuts heart attack risk over 51% and stroke risk 62%.

"Just in the last year I started using the saunas and I see a huge change... Like 4 days a week in the sauna for just 20 minutes at 160° plus, whether it's an infrared sauna or a traditional one. What happens is it reduces your chance of heart attack by over 51%."
