This test estimates how your body is aging underneath them.\u003c\/strong\u003e A few drops of blood from a finger-prick, read for DNA methylation patterns, return three different views of how you are aging: a biological age, separate ages for 11 organ systems, and the speed you are aging right now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat this test measures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDNA methylation is a chemical marking on your DNA that shifts with age, environment and how you live. The laboratory reads over a million of these sites from your sample and runs three published algorithms across them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eReading your result honestly\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn epigenetic clock gives an estimate, not a verdict. Published work has found that epigenetic age readings shift measurably across a single day, so the same person can return different numbers depending on when they collected. That is a property of the biology being read, not a fault in the test. The laboratory itself is highly repeatable: TruDiagnostic reports intraclass correlation coefficients of 0.96 for DunedinPACE and approximately 0.9975 for OMICmAge. The instrument is precise; the thing it measures moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo things follow. Treat a single result as a starting point rather than a fact about you. And when you retest, collect at roughly the same time of day as your first sample, so you are comparing like with like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis suits someone setting an annual baseline and willing to read a detailed report. Methylation moves slowly, so once a year is a sensible rhythm and the value shows up on the second test rather than the first. If you want to know whether a change you made last month is working, GlycanAge answers sooner, because it reads inflammation and tends to move within three to six months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat happens to your sample\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTruDiagnostic processes your sample and holds your results on their platform. When you register your kit you will be asked to accept TruDiagnostic's terms, which grant them a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, sublicensable and transferable license over the data derived from your sample, including use in product development and the training of AI systems, and that consent survives deletion of your account. We would rather you read that here than meet it for the first time at registration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKove registers your kit without passing on your email address, so the laboratory has no route to contact you directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor adults 18 and over.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShips within the United States.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo fasting or preparation required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalysis performed by TruDiagnostic, Inc., CLIA #18D2183496, 881 Corporate Drive, Lexington, KY 40503.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a wellness and informational test.
