Chronological Age Deferral

Meaning

Chronological Age Deferral refers to the proactive clinical and lifestyle strategy aimed at systematically slowing the rate of biological deterioration that is typically associated with the passage of time. This goal is achieved by optimizing systemic function and targeting key longevity pathways to minimize the gap between an individual’s chronological age and a more favorable biological age. It is a precision health objective focused on delaying the onset of age-related diseases and maintaining functional capacity deep into later life. Successful deferral translates directly into a longer, higher-quality healthspan, which is the period of life spent in good health.
