Aug 20, 2020 In this engaging discussion, Ryan Smith from TruDiagnostic, a pioneer in biological age testing, joins Dr. Daniel L. Stickler, an expert in functional medicine. They dissect the fascinating differences between biological and chronological age and explore the revolutionary advancements in epigenetic testing. Topics include the complexities of DNA methylation, the role of telomeres in aging, and how lifestyle choices impact our biological clock. There's also a dive into how these insights can transform health monitoring and anti-aging strategies for everyone.

Episode notes
Exercise and Aging
- Dr. Stickler found that intense exercisers, like Ironman athletes, showed accelerated aging in early epigenetic clocks.
- This observation, likely linked to inflammation markers like CRP, has been addressed in newer clocks.
Socioeconomic Factors and Aging
- Socioeconomic status and education correlate with epigenetic aging: higher education is linked to slower aging.
- Childhood stress and abuse can significantly accelerate epigenetic aging.
Sex, Alcohol, and Aging
- Women generally have lower aging rates than men, correlating with their longer lifespans.
- Moderate alcohol intake (beer and wine) may positively affect epigenetic aging.
