Part 1 Biomarkers Reflect Biological Aging

Aging affects chronic disease risk, but variations in biological aging mean individuals of the same chronological age can have different health outcomes.

Recent research shows that biological age, assessed through biomarkers like fasting glucose, CRP, albumin, and others, predicts morbidity and mortality better than chronological age. These biomarkers reflect various physiological functions, including metabolic health, inflammation, and immune competence.

A higher biological age is linked to higher risks of cardiovascular diseases, cognitive decline, and diabetes. Managing these biomarkers through lifestyle changes can improve health outcomes and increase longevity. Understanding and addressing biological age can help reduce chronic disease risk and promote healthier aging.
