A new research from Tel Aviv University shows that the aging process can be predicted through a bone examination. The new marker is called the osseographic score (OSS). This can be used by doctors to predict a person’s lifespan. If the result shows that a person is physically aging faster than his actual age, then the person can plan ahead and take measures to slow the aging process. Certain programs may be considered like regular exercise, taking of supplements, avoiding stress and smoking, getting enough rest and sleep.
Male and female bones have different aging patterns as shown in their genes.
Scientists and doctors are finding ways to fight aging, and to help people not only live longer, but function better regardless of age.
