Episode notes
Biological Age vs Chronological Age
- Biological age reflects how fast our bodies physically age, distinct from chronological years.
- People can biologically age faster or slower than their actual age, confirmed by recent research.
DNA Methylation & Aging
- DNA methylation patterns act as biological clocks to measure aging rate.
- Balanced methylation turns on protective genes and turns off aging-driving genes for better health.
Personalize Your Aging Intervention
- Embrace dietary and lifestyle changes proven to lower biological age in clinical practice.
- Tailor diet and exercise to your unique needs for optimal epigenetic benefits.
