For Patients
An epigenetic assessment is information, not a verdict. This section explains what it can add to a conversation with your physician — and what it cannot.
Why test?
Chronological age counts years. Biological aging measures attempt to describe what is happening within cells and tissues.
A structured set of measured signals to consider alongside your clinical history and conventional tests.
Information designed to support a discussion about what to monitor, not to prescribe an outcome.
Every reported measure is accompanied by its evidence level, its reference information and its limitations.
What this does not mean
The assessment does not diagnose disease, does not predict how long you will live, and does not replace the tests and examinations your physician already uses.
Your pathway
A structured biological-aging profile: what was measured, what it may indicate, and what remains uncertain.
Only validated domains appear in a report. Where a domain has not been validated for the final assay, it is not displayed.
A validated biological sample — blood, saliva or another validated specimen — collected under standardised conditions.
Your collection instructions are provided with the requisition and follow documented handling requirements.
Sample processing, DNA extraction, methylation analysis, quality control and computational analysis.
If a sample does not meet quality-control criteria, it is not reported and the ordering clinician is informed.
The report is written in plain clinical language, with a permanent section explaining what the result does not mean.
It also includes prepared questions you can bring to your appointment.
Questions for your physician
Which measures were reported, and which were not validated for this assay?
What is the confidence and reference information behind each measure?
Does this information change anything in my current care plan?
Which conventional tests remain the priority for my situation?
Is repeat testing appropriate, and on what evidence-based interval?
Patient FAQ
No. VERITAS EPIGENETIC does not predict lifespan or life expectancy under any circumstances.
No. It is not a diagnostic test. If you have symptoms or a health concern, speak with a qualified healthcare professional.
No. It studies epigenetic marks — particularly DNA methylation patterns — and does not modify your genome.
We do not claim that a result can be reversed. Some lifestyle and health factors are described in research as associated with epigenetic patterns, but that association does not predict an individual change.
