Individuals with a predicted biological epigenetic age younger than their chronological age have a lower likelihood of disease or death.

“and I think that the evidence in support of that um comes mostly from from longitudinal studies in humans where you can you can create a training set and a test set and you know what the future outcomes were for some of these people they've been sampled you know let's say over 20 years and indeed you can see a a relationship between the people whose predicted biological epigenetic age say is younger than their chronological age and then when you look at them 20 years later they have a lower likelihood of developing specific diseases or potentially of dying”
