We all have a friend who “never seems to age” and another who seems to have aged prematurely. This isn’t just luck; it’s a reflection of the difference between Chronological Age (how many times you’ve circled the sun) and Biological Age (how fast your cells and organs are actually wearing down).
What is Biological Age?
Your biological age is a measurement of your physiological health. It is influenced by your genetics, but more importantly, by your epigenetics—the way your lifestyle and environment turn certain genes “on” or “off.”
How We Measure It:
Modern longevity medicine uses “Epigenetic Clocks” or DNA methylation tests. These tests look at chemical markers on your DNA to determine how “old” your cells act. At Ziva Wellness, these metrics help us understand your baseline health better than any birthday ever could.
Can You Reverse Your Biological Age?
The most exciting part of longevity science is that biological age is fluid. Through targeted interventions, you can actually “de-age” your internal systems.
- Optimizing Nutrition:Reducing sugar and processed foods to lower cellular stress.
- Exercise:Using Zone 2 cardio and strength training to maintain mitochondrial health.
- Personalized Supplements:Using NMN, Resveratrol, or Spermidine to support DNA repair.
Conclusion:
Your chronological age is fixed, but your biological age is a choice. Understanding your internal clock allows us to create a roadmap to a younger, healthier version of you.
