Biological age - how to determine?

A person's biological age, sometimes called phenotypic age, provides a measure of a person's physiological and functional state.

This is a calculation of the individual risk of illness and death compared to people of the same chronological age, based on biochemical indicators of inflammation, metabolic and immune function.

The biological or epigenetic age can be more than the passport age, as a result of internal and external factors.

Internal ones include physiological processes and genetics.

External factors - lifestyle, environment - diet, bad habits, ecology.

The first method for measuring biological age - you can take a test (https://www.saragottfriedmd.com/lifespan-quiz/)- write in your homework the number that will be obtained as a result of testing!

Biological age - method 2

If you made blood analysis for the course, now you can already use them in order to find your biological age. Although this is, a rather relative value, it gives an understanding of where you are at the moment.

To determine biological age from blood tests, we use two options.

Here's the first option:

1. You must go to the site http://aging.ai/

2. Select the Aging.ai 3.0 section, where you will need to enter 19 blood parameters.

3. Enter all parameters in the units indicated there.

4. Press submit and get the required value - your biological age.

5. Why do you need to do this?

- In order to see where you are now and start moving in the right direction.

6. If I do not want to determine my biological age or have not been tested?

It's okay, it's not necessary!

7. One of the tasks this week will be calculating biological age, in the block with homework you can reflect this
