Is RealAge scientifically valid? |
RealAge is not new science; RealAge is a way of interpreting and presenting already established science. We rely on the most up-to-date, high-quality scientific studies in every field relevant to preventive medicine. All health information we use has been published in well-respected, peer-reviewed journals and is widely accepted within the scientific community.
RealAge experts reviewed the scientific literature, looking at those health behaviors and choices that affect mortality risk, or, as we like to say, rate of aging. Every RealAge action step we suggest for each person at the end of the RealAge Test has been shown to affect the rate of aging in several scientific studies. All of the studies used are human studies.
