AI-Powered Glycan Age Analysis: Unlocking the Secrets of Your Biological Age
What happens when your immune system starts acting its age, and what you can do to keep it young.
You have probably seen the ads: a sleek finger-prick kit arrives in the mail, you bleed onto a card, and a few weeks later a number arrives telling you how "old" you really are. The biological age testing market is booming, and amid the DNA methylation hype, one method has quietly built a serious scientific case for itself. It is called Glycan Age Analysis, and it is not measuring your genes, it is measuring your immune system's sugar coating using the IgG glycosylation test. Unlike epigenetic clocks, it captures how your body is aging right now — and, crucially, it responds to what you do about it. This post covers everything you need to know, including how to lower inflammageing through the lifestyle changes that actually move the needle.Â
