Biological age has become a buzzword in longevity circles and is "the true age that our cells, tissues, and organ systems appear to be, based on biochemistry," according to the National Institute on Aging. The latest breakthrough in longevity research suggests there may be a way to measure the age of specific organs. A recent study in Nature utilized machine learning models to analyze the age of 11 major organs for 5,676 adults. AdvertisementKnowing your "oldest organ" might also tell you more about your health trajectory — and the age-related diseases you could develop — than your biological age. The study found that individuals with accelerated heart aging, for example, have a 250% higher risk of heart failure.

These drugs tame "zombie cells" which can contribute to age-related diseases. New drugs could clear harmful zombie cells from the body entirely – but research is still ongoing. Metformin is among a class of drugs called "senomorphics," pills that are showing promise taming aging cells known as senescent cells. These are cells in the body that have stopped multiplying, yet don't die—earning them the nickname "zombie cells." For the rest of us, Kirkland says "things like exercise and dieting can reduce senescent cell burden as well."
