Went vegetarian ~13 years ago. No regrets, no problems, no complaints.

Epigenetics is fascinating. I just came back from a project meeting, where i work with people who discovered that HRT (hormone replacement therapy) slows down epithelial cell aging. Epithelial cells are the cells that cover all your vital organs, so they are important for aging.
Now, there are even commercial companies that measure Epigenetic age of cells with a technique called DNA methylation.

DNA methylation is not a technique that can be applied. It is a biological system present in your cells silencing expression of genes that are not useful for a cells current behavior. Differently differentiated cells have different "genes methylated" and thus inactivated which govern their behavior and potential for further sub-differentiation.
Indiscriminately "reversing methylation" would probably lead to a lot of "cancering".
Does it not seem reasonable that if a chat group has, lets say, more than 1000 participants, whatever is said should be considered said in public?
The reference you gave measure blood or urine samples which would probably not be representative of epithelial cells. Also i like non-descriptive but professional looking stock photos of multi-pipettes and the ubiquitus vortex genie 2. Extra points for consecutive photos of the same tip-rack in obviously proffessional use.
