Joints get stiffer, arteries get thinner and eyes and ears just don&#8217;t gather information they way they used to.<\/p>\n<p>Based on their unparalleled collection of health data on these people, Moffitt and Caspi have come up with a &#8220;pace of aging&#8221; score that converts all those health variables into a single measure that reflects whether a person is biologically aging one year for every year on the calendar, or whether they&#8217;re aging slower or faster.<\/p>\n<p>That scoring system is now being converted into a measure based on epigenetic markers, placemarks on the genes that reflect their life experiences.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"mb-4\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\">\n    <meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"How fast are you aging?\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\/?v=NDEk3NOcTnE\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"In this video, Caspi and Moffitt explain their work and what it has taught them, and introduce just a bit about their new test, which has been licensed to a company called TruDiagnostics.
