How old are you really

Post by Sean Hayden » Thu Mar 01, 2018 1:48 pm

We may be able to tell soon with a simple urine test.
Background: A molecular biomarker of physiologic age, as opposed to chronologic age, is needed in clinical medicine. 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGsn) and 8-oxo-7, 8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoGsn) are two promising aging biomarkers.
Urinary 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine as a Potential Biomarker of Aging

I wonder if it's any better than "how old do you feel"?
