I know my real age, I have a birth certificate.

Ya, they should have worded the title more accurately. It's a reference to your biological age, which is the age of your cells/tissues/organs. You have a variation of biological ages across your different cells/tissues/organs. This makes it pretty wild the education of your grandparents would have any impact on it!
