Your birthday measures time. Your biological age estimates wear and tear. At Glendale Whole Health we use epigenetic testing to see how fast you are aging so we can target what matters for your healthspan. Results vary based on your health history and plan.
What is biological age
Biological age reflects the condition of your cells not the candles on a cake. It is influenced by sleep, stress, nutrition, movement and environmental exposures. A lower biological age relative to your calendar age is linked with better healthspan.
Why we use TruAge
TruAge analyzes DNA methylation from a small blood sample to estimate biological age and related aging signals. It is data driven, repeatable and useful for tracking change over time.
TruAge helps you track
- Overall biological age compared to calendar age
- Rate of aging to see if you are speeding up or slowing down
- Lifestyle impact from sleep, stress, movement and nutrition
- Response to care when we add nutrition changes, BHRT when appropriate, peptides or other therapies
Who is a good candidate
- Anyone building a longevity plan and wants a baseline
- Patients working on metabolism, hormones or recovery who want objective feedback
- People making lifestyle upgrades who want to measure progress not guess
How testing works
- Simple sample by finger stick card or small blood draw in office
- Lab analysis of DNA methylation with quality controls
- Results review where we translate the report into a 90-day action plan
- Retest after a set period to confirm change and refine the plan
Note: turnaround times can vary. Results vary and are one part of a full clinical picture.
How we use your results
Your report becomes a roadmap. We pair it with labs, body composition and your goals to focus on high-leverage steps:
- Metabolic reset with protein targets and daily movement
- Sleep and stress upgrades to lower wear and tear
- Targeted nutraceuticals chosen for purity and potency
- BHRT when appropriate with monitoring
- Peptide or IV support in select cases
- Skin and body treatments when desired to match confidence with health

Sample 90-day blueprint
Example only. Your plan will be personalized after testing.
- Weeks 1–4: metabolic reset, protein targets, walking plan, sleep window, foundational supplements
- Weeks 5–8: strength progression, add mitochondrial and gut support, first in-office therapy if indicated
- Weeks 9–12: recheck key markers, refine BHRT or peptides if used, tune skin and body composition, set long-term maintenance
FAQ
Do I need to prepare
No special prep. Stay hydrated and avoid heavy exercise right before a blood draw.
How often should I retest
Most patients retest every 4–6 months to see a clear signal. We individualize timing.
Can lifestyle alone change my biological age
Yes. Sleep, nutrition, movement and stress practices can shift epigenetic signals. We keep plans simple and track what works for you.
Is TruAge diagnostic
No. It estimates aging biology and guides care. We combine it with medical history and labs.
Evaluating your needs
A personalized longevity plan ensures that we target your unique goals and health history. At Glendale Whole Health we combine biological age testing, advanced labs and practical changes to support healthy aging you can feel.
