biological age

Biological age refers to how well or poorly your body is functioning compared to typical standards for your actual age. Unlike chronological age, which counts the years you've been alive, biological age considers factors like cell health, organ performance, and overall physical condition. For example, someone might be 40 years old chronologically but have a biological age of 35 or 45, depending on their lifestyle, genetics, and health habits. It provides a more personalized measure of aging, helping to assess health risks and the impact of aging processes on your body's systems.
