Ep. 040 - Unlocking the Potential of Human Longevity with Cole Kirschner of Age Rate

Cole Kirschner, CEO of Age-Rate comes on the show to discuss an innovative new test to measure chronological versus biological age that he and a research team at McMaster University have developed.   Key Takeaways: [1:02] Sachin welcomes listeners to today’s episode! He introduces his guest, Cole Kirschner, and asks him how someone seemingly this young got involved in longevity.   [4:48] Cole touches on the real benefits of knowing your biological age. He shares the comprehensive metric he and his team built to make this data more accessible.   [6:04] Cole shares a working definition of genetics and epigenetics as well as the number of methylation points his company is currently looking at.   [8:42] Getting tested is simple and easy, Cole walks us through the process from ordering the kit to receiving your results.   [11:16] Doing this type of work leads to some interesting Aha! moments, Cole shares some of the more powerful ones he came across.   [13:39] Benchmarking and baselining is part and parcel of how this project works, so tracking your progress is baked into the product.   [14:31] Cole shares his view on security and the importance his company places on anonymity.   [16:07] The role this type of process and data can have in the future of insurance companies.   [18:52] When it comes to methylation, there are very few short-term fluctuations, so you get a stable picture through time, as opposed to blood tests which can vary wildly during a single day. Cole explains the frequency at which people should run these types of tests.   [21:00] Cole offers a definition of biological and chronological age as well as the main differences.   [22:11] Cole shares the top five things he has seen make a difference in the aging process.   [24:53] Aside from the obvious culprits, there were some surprising accelerants of aging in Cole’s research. The pandemic effect is also likely to provide interesting pre and post datasets.   [30:00] Measuring diet quality is an interesting aspect of the service provided by Cole’s company; he shares how there is a clear difference between vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, and carnivore diets.   [33:07] How can you get tested? follow this direct link: age-rate.com/baseline and use the promo code “Sachin” at checkout.   [34:12] There are other tests that have attempted to measure the speed of aging; how does Age-Rate compare?
