What is TruAge Diagnostic Test? 

TruAgeTM is a test made for doctors and patients to determine how well they are aging and what their aging rate says about their risk factors for many other diseases. It is an epigenetic test which measures the methylation status of 900,000 points in your DNA to determine your biological age and disease risk.

There’s A Lot You Can Learn From Your DNA

What is your biological age?

Chronological Age

Refers to the number of years that have passed since your birth and has little relevance to how you feel and function.

Biological Age

Refers to how well your cells are aging - how well your DNA is giving them accurate, healthy instructions, so they can do their job properly and keep your body in tip-top shape. It can be changed by attending to your health. Most accurate prediction of health span (how healthy you are) and lifespan (how long you will live) than any other biomarker.

Once you send in a small blood sample, our lab uses ultra-precise technology and complex algorithms to sort through your DNA. We look at millions of tiny markers and analyze their patterns on your DNA. When you get your report back, your provider will offer in-depth analysis of areas in your life that are affecting your Biological Age.

Introducing: TrueAge Diagnostic Test

The world’s most accurate biological age test

TruAgeTM is an epigenetic test that starts with an at-home blood collection kit. Once your sample is sent back to our lab, we analyze patterns of DNA Methylation to identify your Biological Age.

But what does that mean, and why does it matter?

A DNA test can look at what genes you have. But an Epigenetic test can look at what genes are being used, and how much.

What should my biological age be?

As low as you can get it!

When your Biological age is less than your Chronological age, it means that you are living a lifestyle that is actively helping you lengthen your lifespan and prevent (or at least greatly reduce!) the chance of chronic illness and age-related diseases.

Did you Know? 

By decreasing age by 7 years, you decrease your risk of mortality by more than 50%!

How can I control my biological age

Risk factors such as lifestyle and environmental factors can impact how our genes perform, including:

Nutrition

Smoking

Physical Activity

Working Habits

Alcohol Consumption

Sleep Habits

Medication

Pollution

Your biological age can be slowed, and even reversed. You can apply changes to your lifestyle and use TruAge to show – and even track changes over time – how your lifestyle is changing YOUR risk of incidence of disease.

While scientists believe about 40% of your DNA Methylation is out of your hands, due to what you inherited from your parents or experienced in childhood – that still leaves over half of your gene expression in your own hands.

How often can I take the test?

We recommend taking the test every six months because your DNA methylation measurably changes within that time. By taking the test every half year you are able to notice if the treatments and lifestyle changes you have applied to your health have been effective in reducing your biological age.

Is epigenetic age connected to menopause?

One’s age at menopause and epigenetic age share a common genetic signature indicating that aging and reproduction are intrinsically linked.

Reproductive senescence is a feature of all female mammals, but humans are unique because we experience exceptionally long post reproductive lifespans. By using the epigenetic clock we are able to indicate how menopause may accelerate the epigenetic aging process in blood.

Since we are able to have a lengthy period of life after menopause approaching the link between menopause and epigenetic age can help women successfully focus on their health and lifespan.

FAQs

What is TrueAge?

TruAge is a test made for doctors and patients to determine how well they are aging and what their aging rate says about their risk factors for many other diseases. It is an epigenetic test which measures the methylation status of 900,000 points in your DNA to determine your biological age and disease risk.

How was TruAge test created?

This test uses a powerful algorithm and computer-learning software by analyzing almost a million data points from over 10,000 patients. By looking at how it has shown very tight correlations to chronological age and how the body methylates your DNA, TruDiagnosticTM is able to use their precise and reliable algorithm to predict one’s biological age.

How does my epigenetic aging rate affect my risk for other diseases?

We already know that aging is associated with chronic disease development, however, it also increases epigenetic aging. For each one-year increase in the difference between chronological and epigenetic age (the Δ age), there was a 6% increased risk of developing cancer within three years and a 17% increased risk of dying of cancer in the next five years.

How often can I take it?

We recommend taking the test every six months because your DNA methylation measurably changes within that time. By taking the test every half year you are able to notice if the treatments and lifestyle changes you have applied to your health have been effective in reducing your biological age.

Why this test use blood compared to others?

Unlike other tests that use saliva or urine, TruAgeTM uses blood. While we know that saliva or urine is easier to collect, those methods don’t have the scientific background supporting their use. With our test, we can guarantee accurate and useful results from science.
