The concept of biological age might sound like a new notion, but it’s something researchers have been looking at for 35 years. A person’s biological age can tell us more about them than chronological age because it includes genetics, lifestyle and environmental factors. Since it’s such an individualised metric, it’s important to find a reliable way of measuring it. In the episode, Rina and her guest Dr Peter Joshi describe 11 different biological ageing clocks, the research behind them and why GlycanAge is such a great tool for providing not just an accurate measurement of your biological age, but also actionable tips you can incorporate to promote healthy ageing. Our guest is a Chief Scientist for Humanity Health, a company using digital biomarkers to measure and improve the rate of ageing.
