Biological age

Updated on 12 November 2026

We use the PhenoAge algorithm, derived from this scientific paper:

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5940111

What is PhenoAge?

Your biological age is calculated from 9 blood biomarkers (albumin, creatinine, glucose, CRP, lymphocyte %, mean cell volume, red cell distribution width, white blood cells, alkaline phosphatase) plus your chronological age.

The algorithm combines these measurements to summarize your current physiological state: metabolism, inflammation, immune function, kidney and liver health, and red blood cell quality.

What the score tells you

  • Dashboard: track your score after each test to measure the impact of your lifestyle.

  • Targeted action plan: identify biomarkers outside the optimal range and work on them (nutrition, activity, sleep, toxin reduction).

  • Motivation: seeing your biological age improve by several years in just a few months can be a powerful positive reinforcement.

In short, PhenoAge acts as a health GPS: it shows which biological “areas” to invest your efforts in so your body can function at its optimal age, regardless of the passing of time.

You can click directly on your biological age from your dashboard: the calculation method and all the associated explanations are available there, at https://app.lucis.life/data-hub/.
