Defytime, in partnership with Medizen Humancare Co. Ltd., will soon be making available telomere analysis saliva test kits for our customers so they may track their telomere length progress while taking our TAM supplements.

Analysis Process

In order to accurately evaluate changes to your body’s biological age, your telomere length first needs to be measured. Analysis can be obtained from a sample of saliva which is a painless and simple process. After a period of weeks or months another test should be performed to verify any improvement.

The saliva test kit is designed to be used by a patient at home and sent to a lab for testing. After receiving the saliva sample and ensuring the completion of necessary consent documents, the lab will then extract DNA from the collected sample for analysis.
