“A Pilot Study on Lifestyle Factors Associated With Early Biological Ageing and Awareness about Reverse Ageing among Indian Adults”

Abstract

Biological Ageing refers to the progressive decline in physiological function and is influenced by genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. In recent years, the concept of biological age has gained importance as a more accurate indicator of health status than chronological age. Lifestyle behaviours such as physical activity, sleep quality, diet, and stress management play a significant role in determining biological Ageing and the risk of lifestyle-related diseases. The present study investigates lifestyle factors associated with early biological Ageing and examines awareness and willingness among Indian adults to adopt lifestyle modifications for healthy Ageing.
The study used a cross-sectional survey design with a sample of 25 participants selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire covering physical activity, sleep duration, stress levels, dietary habits, awareness about reverse Ageing, and willingness to adopt lifestyle changes. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the data.
