Listen on Causes or Cures:
Can You Really Slow Down Aging?
Chris Mirabile says YES.
Most of us feel it sooner or later…birthdays pile up, energy dips, joints creak, and the mirror quietly betrays us. But what if your biological age could tell a very different story than the date on your driver’s license?
In the latest episode of Causes or Cures, I chat with Chris Mirabile, who says he’s done just that. After surviving a brain tumor at just 16 years old, Chris made it his mission to master his health and extend his life. That journey eventually led him to found NOVOS, a company focused on science-based strategies that target the 12 biological causes of aging.
And here’s the headline: Chris says he has reduced his biological age by 13.6 years and slowed his pace of aging by 37%.
What We Talk About
In this episode, Chris Mirabile and I cover:
*His remarkable personal story — from a life-threatening brain tumor as a teenager to launching a company at the frontier of longevity science.
* What “biological age” actually means — how it’s measured, why it matters, and what it doesn’t tell you.
*How he slowed his pace of aging — and what it feels like to have your body clock tick more slowly than the calendar.
*The 12 causes of aging — why scientists believe they’re critical and how targeting them could change healthspan, not just lifespan.
*The emotional and spiritual side of health — and why your inner life may be just as important as lab markers.
*The story behind NOVOS Core — what’s in it, the early evidence (lab and human studies), and what research is still needed.
A Quick Note
As always, a disclaimer: I don’t endorse or recommend any specific supplements, including the ones discussed in this episode. But Chris Mirabile brings a wealth of knowledge, compelling data, and an inspiring personal story that’s worth hearing.
