Your healthy aging strategy just got smarter! This cutting-edge formula helps defend two key biological aging biomarkers: telomere length and DNA methylation age.
What is Biological Aging Defense?
You can’t change your chronological age, but your lifestyle and nutritional choices have an impact on your biological age. Our once-daily formula includes a standardized Scarlet beebalm extract to help preserve healthy telomere length and DNA methylation age, biomarkers associated with how aging affects the body’s cells, tissues and organ systems.
Nothing stops the hands of time, but you can promote healthy biological aging with this cutting-edge formula.
Biological Aging Defense
- Supports healthy biological aging by targeting key hallmarks of the aging process
- Helps preserve DNA methylation age, an important factor in healthy biological aging
- Helps maintain healthy telomere length, a key aging biomarker
What Is DNA Methylation?
“DNA methylation” doesn’t roll off the tongue, but it’s a critical biological process that acts as an “on/off switch” for certain genes through a process called epigenetics, which is involved in gene expression and whole-body health. DNA methylation is a biomarker researchers measure when studying the field of healthy aging, which can be used to determine your biological age. Gene expression is involved in whole-body health.

Why Should I Supplement With Biological Aging Defense?
Did you know you have two ages? Your chronological age, the number of years you've been alive, and your biological age, the health of your body's cellular function. While you can't change the number of candles on your cake, you can help slow the impact of time on your health with Biological Aging Defense. The ingredients in this cutting-edge formula support healthy biological aging by targeting two key hallmarks of the aging process. It starts by preserving DNA methylation, a natural process that promotes whole-body health. It also helps maintain healthy telomere length, another key biomarker of healthy aging.
So, for a smarter, healthier aging strategy, biohack your DNA with Biological Aging Defense from Life Extension.

FAQ
What is in Biological Aging Defense?
Biological Aging Defense contains a scarlet beebalm extract and lemon balm extract standardized to provide at least 4% didymin (4 mg). Beebalm is a flowering plant known for its active compounds, such as didymin, that help support healthy aging and overall well-being. Lemon balm acts as a supportive ingredient.
Who should take Biological Aging Defense?
Biological Aging Defense is intended for any adult who wants to support healthy aging from within. It’s designed for those looking to maintain key markers of healthy biological age, such as youthful gene expression (epigenetics) and telomere length.
What is biological age?
Biological age reflects how well your body’s cells and systems are functioning. This is different from your chronological age, which is simply an indicator of how many years you’ve lived. Your biological age can be influenced by factors like lifestyle, genetics, and environment, and can move faster or slower than your actual, chronological age.
What is DNA methylation age?
DNA methylation is a natural process that’s related to healthy gene expression (through epigenetics), which impacts whole-body health. Over time, the pattern of DNA methylation changes, which can impact gene expression, and in turn, how cells function. Scientists can measure DNA methylation patterns as biomarkers to help measure how the body is aging.
What are telomeres?
Telomeres are protective caps at the ends of your chromosomes that help keep your DNA stable. Longer telomeres are associated with youth and a longer lifespan. Together, epigenetics and telomere length play key roles in how your cells age and function over time.
When can I expect an effect?
In a study of a scarlet beebalm formulation standardized to 4% didymin, a more youthful biological age and telomere length were observed after 12 weeks of use compared to placebo. Everyone is unique, however, so the time it takes to notice benefits can vary from person to person. We suggest following the study duration to determine product efficacy.
When is the best time to take Biological Aging Defense? Should it be taken with food or on an empty stomach?
We suggest taking one capsule daily with food.
Will this supplement interact with my medication?
There is no indication that the nutrients within this formula would negatively interact with prescription medications. However, we always suggest that you inform your physician of any supplements you are taking.

Yes, this product and all its ingredients are Life Extension verified non-GMO.
Can children take this product?
This product was designed for adults aged 18 and over. Always consult with your child’s pediatrician before giving them any supplements.
A combination of factors contributes to the normal aging process, which includes the accumulation of oxidative stress in the body.1-3 We can describe this process in two ways: chronological and biological aging.
Chronological aging is the quantifiable amount of time you’ve been alive. In other words, your birthday determines your chronological age, which encompasses the experiences, memories and wisdom accumulated throughout your lifetime. Your biological age tells a different story.
Biological aging is a lab-based estimate that reflects the gradual changes in cellular function over time. It tells you whether your body is older or younger than your chronological age and can guide you in making lifestyle changes that will help keep you young at the cellular level.4,5
Biological Aging Defense
Our once-daily supplement is designed to support healthy biological aging by addressing two key hallmarks of the aging process.
Preserving telomere length: Your telomeres are like protective caps at the ends of your chromosomes. As time goes by, these telomeres shorten naturally; as they do, cells lose their ability to divide and function optimally, contributing to the normal aging process. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, participants taking a standardized scarlet beebalm extractshowed significantly longer telomere length compared to placebo by the end of the study.6
DNA methylation: This biological process acts as an “on/off switch” for genes through a process called epigenetics. DNA methylation is also a key biomarker researchers measure when studying the field of healthy aging and these methylation patterns are used to determine the biological age. In that same study, participants taking a standardized scarlet beebalm extract showed a lower DNA methylation age compared to the placebo group by the end of the study.6
Improved quality of life: Participants taking a standardized scarlet beebalm extract improved quality of life compared to baseline.6
