MEASURING BIOLOGICAL AGE

Biological age tests: how old are you, biologically?

Prepared by: Research Desk. Sources are linked for verification.

Epigenetic clocks promise to measure how fast you’re aging. Some are impressive research tools; some consumer tests are much less than they seem. We explain the science behind the number.

Why read BioAge Peptide

Clocks compared

Horvath, PhenoAge, GrimAge and DunedinPACE: what each was trained to predict, and why your results can differ.

Testing, demystified

How consumer biological-age tests work, how they’re regulated, and the questions to ask before you pay.

Measurement before intervention

Understanding what a biomarker measures comes before interpreting any change in it. That’s our whole angle.

About us

BioAge Peptide is a resource on biological-age measurement: epigenetic clocks, blood-based biomarkers, and how aging research measures change. We write for quantified-self readers and researchers. How this site works.
