Nutritional Epigenomics & Health
The newest discoveries in epigenetics have led to the emergence of epigenetic clock models. These models identify DNA methylation signatures, allowing us to accurately measure or predict a person’s chronological age, disease, and mortality. These clocks have huge potential for developing our understanding of the disparity between increased average lifespan and improvements in health span.
