What would you do if you found out your body is aging faster than your actual age? Thatâs the wake-up call I got recently when I received my epigenetic test results. Despite feeling fine, years of stress and overworking have taken a toll. But hereâs the good news: in just 1.5 years, Iâve slowed my aging pace significantly, and Iâm proof that itâs never too late to take control of your health. Want to know how I did it and what Iâve learned?
Hello, HS100 family! Itâs Gabriel Cian here, and today, I want to get personal with you. As many of you know, Iâm dedicating my life to promoting longevity and optimal health through our amazing HS100 community. But sometimes, life has a way of reminding us that weâre all human and that even those of us with the best intentions can fall short.
A few weeks ago, I got my epigenetic test results back from TruDiagnostic. And letâs just say, it wasnât exactly the news I wanted to hear. While my chronological age is 42.78, my biological age turned out to be 46.3. Yes, my body has aged faster than expected. Years of chronic stress, overworking, and neglecting sleep have left their mark.
But hereâs the twist: despite this less-than-ideal news, thereâs a silver lining. My pace of aging is now 0.88. That means for every year that passes, my body only ages 0.88 years. Itâs a huge improvement, and it didnât happen by chance.
The Turning Point: 1.5 Years Ago
About a year and a half ago, I realized I was doing everything wrong. I was pushing myself to the limit, constantly stressed, barely sleeping, and not paying attention to what my body needed. I thought I was âfineâ because I felt fine. But thatâs the danger of this journey weâre on. Feeling fine isnât the same as being fine.
So, I made some changesâserious changes. I started managing my stress more effectively, prioritizing sleep, eating a diet that nourishes my body, exercising regularly, and taking care of my mental health. It hasnât been easy, and it certainly hasnât been perfect, but the results are there: Iâm aging slower, and thatâs all the motivation I need to keep going.
Two Lessons Learned
This experience has taught me two powerful lessons that I want to share with you:
Donât Wait for Symptoms to Take Action
We often think, âIf I feel good, I must be good.â But thatâs a dangerous mindset. By the time you feel the effects of poor health, the damage is already done. Prevention is always better than cure. Take charge of your health now, not when something feels off. Trust me, youâll thank yourself later.
Keep Going, No Matter How Small the Steps
The changes I made werenât drastic overnight transformations. They were small, consistent stepsâdaily habits that started to add up. And now, my pace of aging is slowing down. Itâs proof that this journey isnât about quick fixes; itâs about commitment and perseverance. No matter where youâre starting from, every positive change counts.
Itâs About the Journey, Not the Destination
Weâre all here because we want to live 100+ years in good health. But that doesnât mean weâre immune to setbacks or challenges. The important thing is to keep moving forward, even when the results arenât what we hoped for. Itâs not about being perfect; itâs about being persistent.
Iâm sharing my TruDiagnostic report with you not to alarm you, but to remind you that itâs never too late to take control of your health. It doesnât matter where you are now; itâs about where youâre headed. And the good news is, weâre in this together.
