Biological Age Testing

At VirtualCare Wellness Clinic, we offer biological age testing to provide a deeper understanding of your health beyond your chronological age. Unlike the age on your birth certificate, biological age reflects the cumulative impact of your genetics, lifestyle, environment, and health choices.

Why Biological Age Matters
Biological age is a stronger predictor of healthspan and lifespan than chronological age. By measuring how old your body is at the cellular level, we can assess your true health and better understand the risk of age-related diseases.

TruAge Complete: Our Top Choice for Biological Age Testing
We recommend the TruAge Complete test for the most comprehensive insights into your biological age and aging trajectory. The test includes several markers that assess various aspects of your health and how they contribute to your aging process.

What the TruAge Complete Test Covers:

  • Biological Age (OMICmAge): Your body’s true biological age based on DNA methylation.
  • Disease Risk Prediction: Understand your risk for age-related diseases.
  • Risk of Death: Assess your age-related risk of mortality.
  • Physical Fitness Age (FitAge): How old your body is from a physical fitness perspective.
  • Immune Cell Concentrations: Levels of various immune cells and their impact on aging.
  • Pace of Aging (DunedinPACE): The rate at which your body is aging each year.
  • Telomere Length: The length of your telomeres, which are linked to cellular aging and disease risk.
  • Impact of Alcohol & Tobacco: How your lifestyle choices (e.g., alcohol consumption or tobacco use) have affected your DNA expression and aging.
  • Weight Loss Response: Whether your body is likely to lose weight from restricting your caloric intake based on DNA.
