How old are you, really? While your chronological age is just a number, your biological age reveals the true state of your body’s health.

In this episode of the Wellness Zone, Dr. Barry Sears and Mary Perry explore the intriguing science of epigenetics—what switches our genes on or off—and how it impacts aging. Most importantly, they explain how your metabolism holds the key to controlling the aging process. Discover how following a healthy nutritional system like Metabolic Engineering can help you age more gracefully and increase your chances of living a longer, healthier life.
