The Science of Aging: How to Slow Down Your Biological Clock Pt. 2

Derrick Hines Episode 135

In this episode, Dr. Derrick Hines continues his insightful conversation with Chris Mirabile, diving deeper into the practical applications of epigenetic testing. Chris suggests that an annual test is sufficient for most people, balancing cost and effectiveness while accounting for lifestyle changes throughout the year. The conversation delves into how these tests can guide healthier lifestyle choices that slow down the biological aging process.

Chris shares insights from studies showing how Novos products can significantly impact biological age over time. The discussion emphasizes the importance of being patient and consistent with lifestyle changes to see meaningful results. Derrick and Chris also explore actionable steps listeners can take to improve their health and longevity.

Takeaways:

  • Annual epigenetic testing is recommended to track meaningful changes and avoid misleading seasonal effects.
  • Consistency is crucial; significant changes in biological age typically appear after six months of dedicated lifestyle improvements.
  • Practical steps to slow down aging include increasing vegetable intake, starting a simple exercise routine, and considering scientifically-backed supplements.
  • You have more control over your aging process than you might think; small, informed changes can significantly impact your long-term health.
  • Patience is key—true results come with time, so focus on sustainable, long-term habits rather than quick fixes.
  • Utilizing epigenetic test results effectively means understanding your current lifestyle and making targeted adjustments to improve health outcomes.
