Bryan Johnson's 90-minute evening routine prioritizes sleep above all else. He brushes and flosses with such precision that his gums appear 24 years younger and his plaque index beats his dentist's. The routine also includes stretching, reading, and talking with his son, all automated so conscious effort doesn't drain his day.

What about evening routine? Obviously, you prioritize your sleep, so what about leading up to bed?
Nothing is more important in life to me than sleep. If sleep is right, life is right. And you can typically locate around 90 minutes from the time I arrive home from meetings or work to do my routine and wind down. So I do a face routine. Teeth. Very happy about my oral health. I dramatically reversed age of my gums. I think 24 years. I had a lot of detachment and loss, and we worked very hard on that. And my plaque index is also lower than my dentist and my son. My dentist can't get my gums to bleed even when she tries. So then I do an oral health regimen and I stretch, read, hang out with my son. We talk about the day's events and we just try to relax for the hour before. I've had to implement these protocols with precision and get muscle memory to do it for me, because if I have to think about it, there's no way I could live life and get everything done.
