That healthspan might be extended along with lifespan is tremendous news. I think people are afraid of living longer than 75 or so because they assume that the rest of their life will be a spent in senility. But if we can figure out how to keep minds and bodies useful as long as a person lives by influencing their epigenetics, we could make people productive and happy for decades longer.

I've one smart body composition scale. It shows my mom's age 1/3 of her original age and my age has 5 year plus. It means I am older than my mom according to Mi smart Scale. Anyone knows what they use to determine that?

They use wishful thinking. Body composition scales are crap, don't trust their numbers. Most just run a little current through your legs and then guess some numbers. The error bars on that are so huge that it's basically meaningless to compare between people. The have limited utility for comparing your body composition to your past self.
