Determination of the biological age

Telomeres are protective ends of chromosomes that shorten with each cell division, which is referred to as “finite shortening of telomeres”. When telomeres reach a critical length, the cell enters a state of cellular senescence, which leads to a loss of normal cellular functions and is strongly associated with ageing. Telomere shortening is just one of many factors in the complex ageing process. Genetics, environmental factors and lifestyle also play a role.

Oxidative stress can also lead to an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the body’s ability to neutralize them. Measuring oxidative stress in the body is complex, with different markers and approaches. The interpretation should be made in the context of clinical symptoms and the overall picture of health. Different measurement methods capture different aspects of oxidative stress. The results should be interpreted by qualified physicians. Take advantage of our possibilities.
