Just before I had found out about raw foods and started changing the way I ate I took this test that calculated my biological age ( click here to take the test ). What I found out didn't disturb me as much as it should have because then I was just looking at a number, not realizing my potential. My results were that I was biologically 52 (and I was 47 at the time)! Here's what it said:
The way that you are currently living your life should mean that you are aging slightly faster than most people in modern society. You are likely to look and feel slightly older than most other people your age. This may be reflected in your level of energy, strength, vitality, mental and emotional stability, resistance to disease or general well-being. Your current rate of aging and risk of degenerative diseases is slightly higher than what most doctors, insurance companies and modern health institutions expect. Every person is different when it comes to health and aging, with degenerative diseases (such as diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, cancer, depression, etc) manifesting at the weakest points in the body. As the years go by, your risk of suffering from one or more degenerative diseases may be slightly higher than what our society regards as 'normal', but significantly higher than what you could actually achieve
Last week I decided to take the test again knowing how much I had improved and hoping to at least be my own age! The results were astounding! My chronological age is now 49 and my biological age is now 36!!!!! WOW, that just blew my mind! I know when I run into someone I haven't seen in a while they comment on how young I look but I never realized how much younger! Here were my results:
Congratulations! You have achieved an extraordinary result - a significant slowing of your biological aging process, found in only a tiny fraction of the population. The way that you are currently living your life should maintain your slow your rate of aging. You are in outstanding physical and mental health, able to live a vital, fulfilling and independent life. You feel good about both yourself and your body. You should already look, feel and act significantly younger than your chronological age. So much so, that most people are amazed or even disbelieving when they hear how old you are
Reading this brought up two things for me. First that its sad that I'm only a fraction of the population and second, it reaffirmed to me that I'm doing something right and that I should stay on this path, for I plan to live a very long life and be able to do anything I want until the day I decide to leave this earth.
