By the end, you will understand A changing score can reflect measurement noise or short-term biology rather than rejuvenation
Epigenetic clocks and multi-marker scores are valuable research tools, but consumer interpretation is limited by calibration, repeatability and unclear clinical action.
Questions before paying
