BioAge DNA Test
Evaluate your biological age through DNA testing. TeloTest™ is a genetic test for telomeric length analysis. Telomeres shorten in every cell-division cycle – and that decrease in length is directly associated with human ageing. In cases of early ageing, telomeric length is often detected as shorter than expected, providing information about the degree of cellular ageing of the body. Longer telomeres are related to increased lifespan and delayed development of age-related diseases.

We generally assume everything is fine with our bodies, that is until things start to go wrong. But what if there was a way to go under the surface and find out your 'true' biological age – then take steps to reduce, or maintain it? Explore the BioAge Test.
Going Beyond Genetics
Epigenetics involves changes in your biology caused by modifications in gene expression, rather than the underlying genetic code itself. Other factors that can influence your epigenetics include your diet, exercise habits, alcohol consumption, and stressors like sleepless nights. NADclinic can introduce you to our in-house team of Nutritionists, Lifestyle Coaches & Medics to further advise and support on any of these underlying influencers.
The DNA of Aging
Through the BioAge Test, NADclinic can accurately determine your body's biological age. Stop counting your age by birthdays or the frown lines on your face. Those are only numbers and they don’t matter. The only number that matters is your biological DNA age. Biological age compared to chronological measures how well, or how poorly our body is functioning relative to our chronological age.
People age at different rates. Some "look" and "feel" older than their chronological age while others look younger than their chronological age. Therefore, our biological age is better parameter of our health, well- being and life span than our chronological age.
How Does It Work?
The BioAge Test works by measuring the length of your telomeres, organic 'caps' which cover the ends of each strand of DNA and protect it during cell replication. This 'cap' shortens every time a cell divides, eventually becoming so short that cells can't function properly and die. While this occurs naturally over our lifecycle, certain factors can expedite the process, including:
- Poor diet
- Lack of exercise
- Smoking & alcohol consumption
- Obesity
- Stress
How NADclinic Can Help
Through DNA screening, then comprehensive DNA analysis with Fagron Genomics, we can develop a bespoke NAD+ Anti-Ageing IV Infusion Regimen to help maintain or improve the age of your cells.
At NADclinic, our IV Infusions contain NAD+, a form of the NAD molecule found naturally in our bodies, which supports mental and physical health. It's linked to cell metabolism, immunity, ageing and cognitive functioning.
