THE SCIENCE
Biological Age Testing
Biological age testing measures how old your body is based on cellular and molecular markers, rather than your age in years.
Biological age testing provides an insight into how your lifestyle and genetics have influenced your true age, known as your biological age, as opposed to your age in years, known as chronological age.
What is biological age?
Biological age is a method of measuring how old your body is on a cellular level, rather than just how old you are based on how many years you have been alive. Factors such as lifestyle, diet, exercise and even stress can influence your biological age, making it a truer indication of general health than your chronological age.
How can biological age affect you?
Your biological age can have a significant impact on your day-to-day life. It can affect your energy levels, how you generally feel and even your risk of certain diseases. A higher biological age can increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes as well as cognitive decline. Lowering your biological age by following recommendations can help you live a longer, healthier life.
What does a biological age test tell you?
A biological age test measures various biomarkers in your body to assess your biological age. It will give you a clear picture of your biological age compared to your chronological age, as well as recommendations on lifestyle changes you can make to lower your biological age.
