+80%

More than 80% of our health and aging are in our control.

Why do we age?

According to the latest studies on longevity, there are 12 mechanisms by which we age, called the "12Hallmarks of Aging".

Genetic factors
Less than 20% of our health status and aging process is predetermined by genetics.
Epigenetic factors
Life habits and environmental factors affect health and aging by more than 80%.
The biology of aging

12Hallmarks of Aging

These features are the complex biological processes we target with our solutions to help you extend your quality of life.

1
Genomic instability
Throughout life, internal and external factors cause genetic damage. Our ability to repair this damage decreases with age and mutations begin to accumulate, further accelerating aging.
2
Telomere shortening
Over time, the protective "caps" at the ends of chromosomes become so short that cells can no longer divide, which can lead to disease, cellular senescence or even cell death.
Measure your telomere length with Life Length's HealthTAV®, the world's most accurate telomere measurement test. Available in Mexico exclusively at Cenegenics Wellness.  
3
Epigenetic alterations
Epigenetic marks are found in all of our genes and determine the degree of activity of each gene. Changes in these epigenetic marks occur in response to life experiences or environmental factors.
4
Loss of proteostasis
Genes are the instructions for making proteins, which are the center of the cell's activity. With age, cellular proteins misfold and lose their function. A young cell can fold or recycle these proteins, but this function decreases with time.
5
Macroautophagy deactivated
Cells have the amazing ability to break down and reuse any damaged or unused components, acting as an internal recycling system that helps maintain health. However, this process diminishes with age and cells can accumulate harmful waste.
6
Deregulated nutrient sensing
Proteins and pathways that control cellular metabolism are influenced by sensing nutrient levels. Over time, these sensory mechanisms become altered and dysregulated, leading to aging and the onset of many age-related diseases.
7
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Younger cells regularly make new energy-producing mitochondria, which they recycle when they lose their function. With age, these processes slow down and malfunctioning mitochondria accumulate in cells, leading to more stress and damage from excess free radicals and reduced energy availability.
8
Cellular senescence
Sometimes, instead of being recycled, an aging cell becomes an inactive "senescent" cell, which not only ceases to perform its biological function, but can also influence neighboring cells to become senescent as well. The accumulation of these "zombie cells" leads to loss of tissue function, inflammation and other deleterious effects that drive the aging process.
9
Stem cell depletion
When cells become damaged and die, they need to be replaced. Stem cells can develop into various cell types to help regenerate blood cells and tissues. With age, the number and regenerative capacity of stem cells decreases.
10
Impaired intracellular communication
The body is made up of trillions of cells, organized into organs, tissues and systems. To function properly, cells constantly communicate with each other. This communication is disrupted with age, which can lead to inflammation and damage to the body's systems.
11
Chronic inflammation
With age, the body tends to become more inflamed. When this inflammation becomes persistent, it can accelerate the aging process by damaging cells and hindering the body's healing.
12
Reduced diversity of the microbiome
The microbial diversity of our gut decreases with age and becomes less useful for metabolic processes. This reduces the ability to digest food and absorb important nutrients, as well as contributing to inflammation and other health problems resulting from aging.

What is your real age?

The number of candles on our birthday cake is not an accurate measure of our actual biological age. So how can we calculate it?
Our "age clocks" integrate key aging-related aspects of your individual health data (e.g., blood biomarkers, reaction rate or telomere length) to provide you with an estimate of your biological age.

Personalized longevity

You are unique! Based on your unique biological profile, we advise you on the most effective science-backed lifestyle interventions, optimization and treatment for you.

Your longevity is in your hands.
