A method and system are provided for measuring the performance age, rate of aging, and/or useful life span of at least one bodily system of a subject. The method begins with observed values taken from a sample population and expressed as a function of age. A regression curve is determined from this function. The regression curve is solved for a performance age of the at least one bodily system for the subject by using an observed result of the subject's system. A rate of aging of the subject's system is determined from the performance age. A useful life span for the subject's system is determined from the rate of aging. The method may be incorporated into a computer system to automatically determine performance age, rate of aging, and useful life span for one or more bodily systems of one or more subjects.
