Is it possible to reverse aging? And we’re not talking about your chronological age, but about the rate at which your cells are aging internally. Unlike your chronological age, you can actually improve your biological age through simple lifestyle changes.
In this episode, Dr. Nichola Conlon, a molecular biologist, delved into the secrets of cellular aging and the science of aging. Dr. Conlon shed light on the concept of biological age, emphasizing its significance as a more accurate predictor of future health compared to chronological age. She discussed the impact of lifestyle choices on biological age, from the damaging effects of excessive alcohol consumption and smoking to the rejuvenating benefits of regular exercise and an anti-inflammatory diet rich in plant-based foods.

Dr. Conlon highlighted the distinction between lifespan and health span, stressing the importance of extending the health span for a better quality of life. Moreover, she shared insights into activating beneficial pathways in the body through practices such as intermittent fasting and high-intensity interval training to promote cellular health and reverse biological age.
Chronological age is the number of years a person has lived, and biological age is the rate at which a person ages at a cellular level. Dr. Conlon explained how lifestyle factors impact biological age more than genetics, stressing the importance of knowing the difference between the two for better health management.
Behaviors like excessive alcohol consumption and smoking are factors that accelerate aging at the cellular level. On the other hand, engaging in regular exercise and following an anti-inflammatory diet rich in plant-based foods can help reverse biological age. Lifestyle choices play a significant role in determining the pace of aging and overall health as you grow chronologically older.
Activating beneficial pathways through practices like intermittent fasting and high-intensity interval training can help trigger an energy alarm in cells, promoting repair and conservation for improved cellular health. These lifestyle changes can help reverse biological age without the use of supplements.
