Biological Age Testing
Epigenetic Clock / Biological Age Testing
DNA methylation-based tests (TruAge, GrimAge, Horvath Clock, DunedinPACE) that measure biological age vs. chronological age. The gold standard for tracking the effectiveness of longevity interventions. Bryan Johnson famously reduced his biological age by 5+ years.
How Biological Age Testing Works
Epigenetic clocks measure DNA methylation patterns at specific CpG sites across the genome. These methylation patterns change predictably with age and are influenced by lifestyle, diet, and environmental factors. The aggregate pattern produces a 'biological age' score.
📊 Evidence by Outcome
DNA methylation clocks accurately predict all-cause mortality and disease risk better than chronological age. GrimAge and DunedinPACE are the most validated.

DNA methylation GrimAge strongly predicts lifespan and healthspan
Lu AT et al.•Aging•2019•PMID: 30669119
Key Finding: GrimAge epigenetic clock predicts time-to-death, time-to-cancer, and time-to-coronary heart disease more accurately than other clocks and traditional biomarkers.
