Abstract

A number of physiological changes are known to occur with aging, including increased fat mass, increased insulin resistance, and changes in the levels of circulating biomarkers such as lipids, growth factors, and hormones. Here, we present protocols for physiometric assessments, as well as measurements of circulating biomarkers of hormonal and growth factor function in individuals over the age range of 18–52 years. We also test for potential gender differences in the outcome measures.
