Wendy Christien - Chronological vs biological age Part 1

Loading player...
Our chronological age refers to our actual age whereas our biological age is
dependent on the health of our cells and our DNA.
We can do little about our chronological age, but we can do a lot to influence
our biological age – both for and against it. Our chronological age increases at
the same rate for everyone, but our biological age can be considerably
different. Research shows that most people will have at least two chronic
diseases by the age of 60! Reducing our biological age improves our health and
lifespan as well as our quality of life in our older years.
