Chronological age tells you how long you’ve lived. Metabolic age tells you how well your body is functioning.
Metabolic age compares your basal metabolic rate (BMR) to population averages, offering insight into muscle mass, body fat levels, and overall metabolic efficiency—factors closely tied to chronic disease risk and long-term health outcomes.
In our latest blog, we break down:
• What metabolic age really measures
• How it’s calculated using body composition data
• Why muscle mass plays a critical role in metabolic health
• Practical, evidence-based ways to improve it
As healthcare and wellness continue to shift toward functional, personalized metrics, metabolic age provides a more actionable lens than age or weight alone.
📊 Learn how body composition helps translate metabolism into meaningful health insights.
