    Epigenetics testing plays a significant role in the community’s shift to working on prevention over cure. It has been an accurate answer to the quest for healthy longevity - a great potential to warn us ahead of health risks and help us make healthier life choices. Healthspan, our reliable biological age wellness kit, is the most advanced in the world for these reasons:

    TOP-NOTCH ACCURACY IN AGING MEASUREMENT

    Most epigenetics testing kits are fueled by methylation arrays which are prone to batch effects and other external factors such as bacterial presence, these problems are avoided with Healthspan, which is powered by Next-generation Sequencing (NGS) technology developed in partnership with Chronomics, a global leader with MIT Tech Review recognition for the development of epigenetics testing through combining epigenetic sequencing process and machine learning.

    Healthspan yields the most on-point aging measurements by assessing undiscovered regions of the human epigenome, accelerating the discovery of foreign chemical marks (known as biomarkers) in the DNA.

    ENCOMPASSING COVERAGE IN AGING MEASUREMENT

    Healthspan gives you the power to determine your biological age and know how well you are aging. Our biological age is affected by lifestyle and external factors over time. By analyzing the methylation in your DNA, Healthspan can not only calculate your biological age, but it can also reveal your biological age acceleration.

    Biological age acceleration (BAA) is the deviation of your biological age and chronological age. If your BAA is positive, it means that you are aging faster which can be accompanied with worse health outcomes. If your BAA is negative, then it means you are aging at a more considerable and healthier pace. Knowing your BAA rate allows you to adopt the specific lifestyle changes necessary to improve your biological age.

    FLEXIBILITY IN AGING MEASUREMENT

    While most epigenetics testing kits solely rely on saliva, Healthspan can also extract DNA from blood, among other recommended sources. Healthspan can provide precise aging measurements with any other tissue aside from saliva, proving its generalizability in aging measurement across technologies.

    Healthspan is an accurate biological age wellness calculator by S-CELL Health & Beauty. In partnership with Chronomics, this is currently the most advanced epigenetics test in the world. Discovering how epigenetics is a key to healthy longevity, we aim to help inform you of your health risks and make healthier choices together. How does the process go with Healthspan?

Discover basic and deeper knowledge on epigenetics, epigenetics testing, and S-CELL’s Healthspan to further educate you on what’s in store for your future health in our frequently asked questions below.

    What is Epigenetics?

    Epigenetics is the study of molecular information that controls how our DNA code is read (gene expression) without changing the DNA underlying sequence.

    Why is Epigenetics important?

    The ability to understand what causes the changes in your health enables you to find treatments and more importantly, prevent further health decline and diseases.

    What is the difference between chronological age and biological age?

    Chronological age is simply the number of years since you were born while biological age is how old a person is when looking at their cells, DNA, or tissues. This can change continuously depending on various factors like exercise, diet, sleep, stress, smoking, and the environment.

    What is DNA Methylation?

    This is a biological process wherein a methyl group is added to DNA molecules to modify changes of the gene, affecting gene expression of a DNA segment without changing the sequence.

    What is a biomarker?

    A biomarker indicates the presence or severity of some diseases. Chronomics, an epigenetics testing company, considers DNA Methylation as an ultimate biomarker in epigenetics.

    What is an Epigenetic clock?

    Epigenetic clocks are biochemical tests that measure biological age.

    What is Healthspan?

    Healthspan, in partnership with Chrononomics, is S-CELL’s biological aging wellness calculating service. It gives you an accurate glimpse of your future health tracks and tells you how well you are aging using cutting edge technology in the science of epigenetics.
