GlycanAge measures a key aspect of our health and immunity - it is a blood biomarker that measures the age of the immune system at the molecular level.

We analyse the glycans attached to the most common antibody in our blood called Immunoglobulin G or IgG. The type of glycans attached to it is able to change the function of IgG from pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory and vice versa.

We need both functions for a strong immune system, but the balance between them will determine our general health status and consequentially our biological age.

Glycans make a big difference to our unique biology and are regulated almost equally by our genes on one side and environment and lifestyle choices on another.
