A short educational/explanatory piece describing multiple ways to measure biological aging versus chronological age: heart age (arterial stiffness and plaque compared to sex/race/age peers), brain age (quantitative neuroimaging vs peers), biologic age (≈40 blood chemistries compared to population norms), and epigenetic age (DNA methylation patterns). The speaker links these measures to disease risk (e.g., increased heart attack risk if heart age > chronological age).
