The Biological Aging Test
What is it?
Our TruAge epigenetic test tells you how old you really are on the cellular level. The test tells you: your biological age, rate of aging, and age of 11 key organ systems by looking at 75+ biomarkers. By routinely taking the test, you can measure the impact of lifestyle changes you make to improve your epigenetic health.
More specifically, we have the best test to measure the body's age. Aging is the #1 risk factor for almost all chronic diseases and death. Understanding the actionable steps one can take to slow or reverse the aging process can equate to meaningful risk reduction over one’s lifetime. We provide you with easy-to-understand reports with actionable recommendations on how to slow down aging.

When you think of aging, you may think of some common, outward expressions (phenotypes), such as wrinkles, gray hair, health issues, or limited physical mobility.
These visible traits are reflective of complex, biological processes occurring in your body; processes that are interconnected and occurring at molecular levels all the way down to your DNA.
The difference in each of our biological "mileage" is the reason why we may look and feel significantly older or younger than others who share the same birth year as us.
Your Chronological Age, or calendarage, is the number of years that have passed since your birth. This number is fixed and does not change to reflect improvements or declines in health and physical capabilities.
Your Biological Age, or cellular age, is a calculation of the toll that life has taken on your body, and is a number that can fluctuate based on various lifestyle, environmental, and/or medical influences.
Understanding how each epigenetic clock is trained and validated is essential because these clocks are pivotal in predicting health outcomes, guiding interventions, and offering insights into "biological aging". To ensure reliability and utility, each individual clock (output) must meet rigorous standards.
