The difference between biological aging and chronological aging is studied to a great length in many research papers. Also, there are many factors that could lead to the internal aging of the body’s cells and tissues. These factors need to be studied in depth so that the rate at which aging takes place can be controlled. In this particular study, 221 samples were studied, which were basically college-going students and teachers. We found that there are many factors that have a positive association with biological aging. Some of these factors include BMI, total fat mass, total muscle mass, visceral fat mass, stress and sleep. Particularly under stress, it was seen that academics and increased responsibilities were the prime factors that caused accelerated aging. 71.9% of the participants reported their biological age to be greater than chronological age. This proves that this topic needs to be studied with a larger population so that the burden of aging can be reduced.
