Let's be honest: Pap smears are terrible. Every year, I stare at the ceiling and try my hardest to ignore the scraping of my insides. In the age of AI chatbots and self-driving cars, how has no one figured out a less torturous way to screen for cervical cancer? Well, there is, but chances are you haven't heard about it.

You (probably) know how old you are. But do you know the functional age of your heart? That number isn't quite as simple as counting the number of birthdays you've had. Various lifestyle factors can age your heart, while others help keep it young and healthy. For example, a 60-year-old who exercises and follows the Mediterranean diet could have the heart of a 40-year-old. Conversely, a sedentary 35-year-old who only eats ultra-processed foods may have a heart that's closer to 50.
