This innovative test is based on extensive research and uses a formula developed by leading scientists to convert nine blood biomarker levels into a biological age score. Each biomarker represents different physiological systems, such as inflammation, metabolism, and organ function, giving a holistic view of your overall health and aging.
Your PhenoAge score is your biological age compared to your chronological age. If your biological age is higher than your chronological age, it may indicate accelerated aging, suggesting the need for lifestyle changes or further health assessments. Conversely, a lower biological age suggests that your body is aging more slowly than expected, which is a positive indicator of your health.

What we test
Biological Age - PhenoAge
The PhenoAge Blood Biomarker Test provides an assessment of your biological age using a set of nine key blood biomarkers.
Ageing, whilst a natural process, is the accumulation of damage in your body over time, caused by a long term over-activation of the immune system.
Test instructions
Fast from all food and drink (other than water) for at least 8 hours, and no more than 12 hours prior to your blood test.
