Epigenetic Biological Age Testing in Singapore
DNAの塩基配列は一生を通じてほとんど変化しませんが、DNA上に存在する化学タグは、食事、睡眠、ストレス、運動、環境に応じて絶えず変化しています。これらのタグを読み取ることで、あなたの生物学的年齢がわかります。これは、暦年齢よりも若くなることもあれば、老いることもあります。

測定内容
生物学的年齢
数千の特定の部位におけるDNAメチル化パターンから算出される、分子レベルでの身体の推定年齢です。
年齢差
生物学的年齢と暦年齢の差。患者様が経時的に追跡する主要な指標です。
検査の仕組み
検体
1回の来院で採取する唾液または血液。
所要時間
Your personal health concierge confirms the reporting timeline for your laboratory when your sample is collected.
手法
数千のCpG部位におけるDNAメチル化プロファイリング。査読済みのエピジェネティック時計(GrimAge、PhenoAge)を用いて解析します。
この手法の理由
単一の時計には依存しません。複数の検証済みアルゴリズムを併記することで、医師と共にシグナルとノイズを判別し、6〜12ヶ月後の再検査でベースラインからの変化を追跡できるようにしています。
わかること
- 生物学的年齢が暦年齢に対して進んでいるか、遅れているか、あるいは一致しているか。
- 現在の老化速度。
- 実践しているライフスタイルの変更(トレーニング、栄養、睡眠、ストレス管理、サプリメント)が、実際に生物学的な変化をもたらしているかどうか。
- より注意が必要なシステムはどれか。
Why biological age matters for healthspan
Healthspan is the number of years you spend in good functional health, as distinct from lifespan. Epigenetic clocks were built to estimate that biological trajectory: they read chemical methylation marks on DNA and compare the pattern against reference populations of known age and health status.[1]
Second-generation clocks such as PhenoAge and GrimAge were trained not on chronological age but on clinical measures and outcomes, and in published cohort analyses an epigenetic age older than chronological age has been associated with higher risk of age-related disease and mortality.[2], [3]
A third-generation measure, DunedinPACE, reports the pace of ageing rather than a single age figure. It was developed from a cohort followed over decades and expresses how many biological years you accumulate per calendar year, which is the measure most sensitive to change between two readings.[4]
Methylation is responsive rather than fixed. Small randomised and pilot studies of diet, exercise, sleep and stress interventions have reported measurable movement in epigenetic age estimates, though the trials are early, small and not yet proof that changing the marker changes the outcome.[5]
These findings describe associations observed across populations, and epigenetic testing is a research-derived tool rather than a diagnostic. A result is a starting point and a way to track change over time, not a prediction about you as an individual.
Reading your report
生物学的年齢
Your estimated age at the molecular level from each clock reported, shown next to your chronological age so the direction and size of the gap is clear.
年齢差
Biological age minus chronological age. A negative gap means your methylation pattern resembles people younger than you. This is the figure most patients track.
Pace of ageing
Where a pace measure is reported, a figure near 1.0 means roughly one biological year per calendar year. Above 1.0 is faster, below is slower.
Multiple clocks side by side
Different algorithms weight different sites, so they rarely agree exactly. Reporting several together shows whether a finding is signal or the quirk of one model.
System-level signals
Some clocks report component scores that flag which systems are contributing most to the gap, which helps direct the rest of your work-up.
Doctor's interpretation
Your result read against your bloods, body composition and history in the action-plan session. A number without that context is not a plan.
What moves the result
Sleep
Consistent duration and timing. Short and fragmented sleep is repeatedly associated with accelerated epigenetic age in observational cohorts.
Aerobic fitness and strength
Measured cardiorespiratory fitness and lean mass track with slower biological ageing estimates, which is why VO2 max and body composition are read alongside.
Body composition and metabolic health
Visceral fat, glucose regulation and lipid status are among the strongest correlates of second-generation clock output.
Nutrition quality
Dietary patterns rich in vegetables, adequate protein and methyl-donor nutrients feature in the small intervention trials reporting movement.
Alcohol and smoking
Both leave clear methylation signatures. Smoking status is directly weighted in GrimAge.
Chronic stress load
Sustained psychological stress and its hormonal consequences are associated with faster estimated ageing.

PhenoAge and GrimAge were trained on clinical measures and outcomes rather than on chronological age, so they estimate biological age in the context of health. Pace-of-ageing measures such as DunedinPACE report how fast you are ageing per calendar year rather than a single age figure, which makes them the most sensitive to change between two readings.
Chronological age counts birthdays. Biological age estimates how old your body looks at the molecular level based on methylation patterns. Two people born on the same day can sit years apart, and it is the gap and its direction over time that your doctor works with.

What this test does not tell you
- It is not a diagnostic test. It does not detect cancer, cardiovascular disease or any specific condition.
- Different clocks give different numbers. The gap between algorithms is expected and is why several are reported together.
- A single reading carries measurement variation. Real change is judged from a baseline and a repeat measured the same way.
- The evidence that lowering an epigenetic age lowers actual risk is not yet established. The marker is a tracker, not a proven target.
- Reference populations used to train the clocks are not always Asian, so the age gap should be read as a trend rather than an exact figure.
- Recent acute illness, infection or major stress can shift a reading. Timing matters, and your concierge will advise on it.
