Summary

This study looks at how people age biologically, focusing on Chinese, Malay, and Indian adults in Singapore. Researchers will measure things like DNA changes, heart health, and physical strength to understand why some people age better than others. The goal is to learn how lifestyle and ethnicity affect aging, not to test a treatment.
