new epigenetic clockBGR

CheekAge is based on new research into biological aging and the markers that could help scientists determine your biological age just by swabbing the inside of your cheek.
The test was able to determine the difference between the person’s biological age and their actual age.
The results showed that the oldest biological age group reached around 50 percent mortality, roughly 7.8 years earlier than the group that had the youngest biological age markers.
The tool proved better at predicting the mortality of the sample givers than other more established epigenetic clocks out there right now.
