Abstract
Abstract. To eliminate the shortcomings of calculating biological age by the multiple regression method, an alternative mathematical approach is proposed. This method consists in calculating the average value of the ratio of the values of the indicators of the examined person to the average population values of these indicators. Comparison of this method with the regression method on the data set of healthy people showed that it eliminates the disadvantages of the regression method, but gives a slightly lower accuracy in assessing biological age.
