What Is a Biological Age Test? The Link Between DNA and Aging

A biological age test is designed to estimate how your body may be aging at a cellular or molecular level, rather than simply measuring your chronological age. In this video, we explain what biological age testing is, how DNA-based markers are used, and why this area is becoming important in longevity science. Full article: https://longevityinsights.co.uk/what-is-a-biological-age-test/ Biological age tests are often discussed in relation to DNA methylation, epigenetics, biomarkers, metabolism, inflammation, and healthspan. While these tests do not predict exactly how long someone will live, they may offer insight into patterns linked to aging and healthy aging. In longevity science, biological age is usually interpreted alongside lifestyle factors such as sleep, exercise, nutrition, stress, and other health markers.
