Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Yeah, recent study.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Well, I love hiking.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Hiking is another way to go out into the nature and all of that stuff.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

So I would definitely go hiking instead of going golfing.

But the other thing that we noticed in our Viome data is we do something called biological age.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

We kind of look at your entire top to bottom, your molecular profile, and we say, how close is your molecular profile to your age?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

You know, you can come in and let's say you're 32 years old, right?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

But if your molecular profile is close to a 38 year old, we tell you that your biological age is 38 years.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Instead it could be 28 year old, right?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

You could biologically look very similar to a 28 year old, right?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

We tell people all of that stuff, right?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

We did a study in Viome where we said, hey, let's look at the biological age of all of the people with certain dietary habits.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

We said, as a group,

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Are people who do ketogenic diets younger or older than their actual age?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

All the people who do vegan diets, are they younger or older than their chronological age?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Yeah.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Right?

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

And these are not small groups because biome has such a big population.

Digital Social Hour
Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

We have thousands of people who are in any one of these subgroups that we measured, right?

Guruduth Banavar : Why Your DNA Doesn’t Decide Your Health | DSH #1702

Here's the interesting thing we found.
