Epigenetic Age Testing: Your True Biological Clock

Aging is the single greatest risk factor for chronic disease—surpassing smoking and obesity by a factor of 10—yet most people rely on chronological age as their only metric. Ryan Smith, founder of TruDiagnostic, reveals how cutting-edge epigenetic testing can unlock your true biological age and provide unprecedented insights into your aging process from just a single drop of blood.

Smith explains the revolutionary science behind DNA methylation clocks, which analyze epigenetic patterns at 29 million locations across your genome. Unlike static genetic tests from companies like 23andMe, epigenetics reveals which genes are turned on or off in real-time, reflecting everything from your sleep quality to stress levels, nutrition, and environmental exposures. TruDiagnostic's algorithms, developed with Harvard and Duke University, can predict mortality with 92% accuracy within five years and track biological aging changes in as little as six months.

Attendees will learn how epigenetic clocks differentiate between people who look decades younger than their chronological age versus those who appear prematurely aged. Smith demonstrates practical applications using examples from the Rejuvenation Olympics—a competitive leaderboard featuring biohackers like Brian Johnson—showing how various interventions impact biological aging rates. The session covers how to interpret key biomarkers and use this data to optimize longevity protocols in real-time rather than waiting decades to see results.

This session provides actionable insights for anyone serious about longevity optimization, backed by TruDiagnostic's database of over 120,000 patients and 45+ published studies. Smith's presentation transforms abstract aging science into practical tools for measuring and improving your biological age, making epigenetic testing an essential component of any comprehensive biohacking strategy.
