Short Answer: Telomere length is only one of many physiological factors that affect biological age. Other factors that affect cellular aging include levels of inflammation, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial function, epigenetics, metabolic efficiency and more. To reduce biological age to just telomere length is somewhat misleading. Although it is a good marketing tactic, reporting a biological age based solely on telomere length is a gross oversimplif...

Hint: It's all about the T-cell Do you know what a T-cell is? You should. It is the superstar of fighting COVID. We all have T-cells, which are a type of white blood cells (lymphocyte) and they are the key players in launching an effective immune response, keyword being effective. An immune response that goes haywire will harm, and even kill a person. An effective immune system targets a pathogen, launches an attack, neutralizes the pathogen (in this case the SARS-CoV2 virus), and then...
