Biological Age Assessment

Meaning

Biological Age Assessment refers to the clinical measurement of an individual’s functional age, determined by the health of their tissues and cellular processes, which is often distinct from their chronological age. These assessments utilize specific biomarkers, such as telomere length, epigenetic clocks, or physiological metrics like cardiovascular health and lung capacity, to quantify the rate of aging. The resulting biological age provides a more accurate representation of disease risk and longevity potential than birth date alone.
