When we think of aging, we often picture wrinkles or gray hair. But aging also occurs deep within our cells. One key area of research focuses on “epigenetic aging,” the gradual changes in how DNA is regulated over time. These changes are tracked using tools called epigenetic clocks, which estimate a person’s biological age based on specific molecular markers in the blood. Unlike chronological age, biological age reflects the body’s functional state and can be influenced by health, lifestyle, and environmental factors. While chocolate and coffee have been associated with better health…
