Ever wonder why your friend seems younger than you? It’s not just their genes!
Blame it on your Biological Age.
The number of candles on your birthday cake is just that, a number. As Darshit Patel, Co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Decode Age told me, “the number of years I have lived doesn't tell me anything about my biology.”
In fact, you could be older or younger than the age on your birth certificate or your chronological age.
Your biological age is what impacts how healthy you are and how long you will live.
There’s more. Every organ in your body is also ageing at its own pace - remember, you read it here? And the age of your organs also determines how healthy you will be as you get older. It also impacts mortality.
But here’s the thing - you can reverse biological age!
And you needn’t be a millionaire to do so. Nor do you need to undergo experimental procedures. We can all get started on reversing our biological age with what Darshit called - ‘Dadi Ma ke nuskhein’! (Grandma’s secrets)
Now, in this episode of Longevity Shot, Darshit outlines some very actionable strategies to reverse biological age. Listen to it on the Never Too Late page on Substack under the podcast tab. Or stream it on Spotify or YouTube.

“The idea is not to become the youngest of the world. The idea is to become the best version of yourself…”
And that’s a good goal to strive for, innit?
