Description
What is the purpose of Epigenetic Testing for Biological Age Analysis?
For centuries, aging has been measured simply by counting years your chronological age. But modern science shows that this is only part of the picture. Your biological age, determined by analysing specific epigenetic markers, reveals how your cells are aging, which can be very different from the number of birthdays you’ve celebrated.
DNA methylation patterns are the most scientifically validated biomarkers of ageing, offering a window into how your lifestyle and environment have influenced your cells over time. By understanding your biological age, you gain the power to take targeted action, potentially slowing or even reversing aspects of cellular ageing.
With this test, you’re not just measuring how long you’ve lived but how well your body is ageing.
Biological Age Reports
The biological age assessment goes beyond traditional age measurements by analysing epigenetic markers that determine how your body is truly ageing compared to its chronological age.
Biological Age Score
Advanced epigenetic analysis calculates your personalised biological age. This score highlights whether your cells are ageing faster or slower than your years might suggest, offering a clear picture of your cellular health.
Youth Capital
Discover your “youth capital”—the gap between your biological and chronological age. This key metric reveals whether you are building a surplus of longevity or facing a biological deficit and tracks how your biological youth changes over time.
Population Comparison
Gain valuable context by seeing how you compare to others in your age group. Your percentile ranking shows what proportion of the population has better or worse ageing markers, helping you understand where you stand in terms of health and longevity.
Lifestyle Sensitivity
With each major lifestyle factor—including diet, exercise, alcohol, and tobacco we assess your personal sensitivity to these behaviours. If your epigenetic data shows minimal impact from high exercise levels, for example, it suggests low exercise sensitivity, meaning you may need to adjust your routine to maximise biological benefits..
These insights empower you to make informed, targeted changes to optimise your health and slow the ageing process.
