How to Know If Your Body Is Ageing Faster Than You Think

Age Isn’t Just a Number — It’s a Clue

You’ve probably heard the saying, "age is just a number." But when it comes to your health, there’s more to the story. There’s the age you think you are (your chronological age), and then there’s the age your body actually feels and functions like - that’s your biological age.

And for many people, the two don’t match up.

Thanks to modern stress, poor sleep, inflammation, and silent nutrient deficiencies, your body could be ageing faster than you realise - even if you still feel relatively healthy.

The good news? You can measure it. And better yet, you can do something about it.

Biological Age vs. Chronological Age: What’s the Difference?

Chronological age is how many candles are on your birthday cake.

Biological age is how your body is actually performing at the cellular, hormonal, and functional level. It’s a reflection of how your internal systems are coping with life: stress, sleep, diet, movement, toxins, and time.

You might be 42 chronologically, but your biological age could be 35 (great!) or 50 (not so great).

That’s why it matters.

Signs Your Body Might Be Ageing Faster Than It Should

While biological ageing can be silent, there are often signs you can’t ignore:

• You’re constantly tired, no matter how much sleep you get
• You’ve gained stubborn weight, especially around your midsection
• Your memory or focus isn’t what it used to beYou’re more sensitive to stress or emotionally drained
• You recover slower from workouts (or life)Your skin feels dull, dry, or prematurely aged
• You’ve experienced hormonal imbalances or mood swingsThese signs aren’t just part of getting older.

They’re often early signals of internal imbalances that are accelerating ageing under the surface.

How Can You Measure Your Biological Age?

At Vervé Wellness, we offer a science-backed solution: 
our Advanced Longevity Screening.

This isn’t your typical check-up. We use world-class diagnostics to uncover the invisible markers of ageing:

• Telomere Length Testing - Telomeres protect your DNA; shorter telomeres = faster ageing
• Methylation Profiling - Measures epigenetic changes that influence ageing
• Inflammation & Oxidative Stress Markers - Chronic inflammation accelerates cellular ageing
• Advanced Hormone & Nutrient Panels - Imbalances can drag down your vitality without you even knowing
• Full-Body MRI & Preventative Imaging - See what your body may not be telling you

These data points combine to paint a clear picture of your biological age - and give us the insights needed to create a personalised plan to reverse or slow the process.
