Key Takeaways
- •Metabolic Health (11 biomarkers): Measures the body's energy management, blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, and fat levels. Includes Hemoglobin A1c, Lipoprotein, Total Cholesterol.
- •Kidney and Liver (5 biomarkers): Checks toxin filtration, fluid regulation, and nutrient processing. Includes Creatinine, Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT).
- •Energy-Related Markers (6 biomarkers): Identifies issues like anemia, thyroid problems, or nutrient shortages causing low energy. Includes Total testosterone (Male only), Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH).
- •Vitamins and Nutrients (3 biomarkers): Assesses levels essential for activity, immunity, and health. Includes Vitamin B12. For detailed definitions, see the Peptide Glossary.
- •Inflammation (3 biomarkers): Gauges immune activity; prolonged elevation signals chronic issues linked to heart disease and diabetes. Includes C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Neutrophils.
Longevity Blood Testing in Canada: 43 Key Biomarkers
Up to 43 essential health markers provide a full view of bodily function. These tests monitor heart, kidney, and liver health along with vitamin balance and inflammation levels. Results help identify steps toward longer, healthier living.
Key Biomarker Categories Tested
Tests cover multiple areas with specific counts of markers.
- Metabolic Health (11 biomarkers): Measures the body's energy management, blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, and fat levels. Includes Hemoglobin A1c, Lipoprotein, Total Cholesterol.
- Kidney and Liver (5 biomarkers): Checks toxin filtration, fluid regulation, and nutrient processing. Includes Creatinine, Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT).
- Energy-Related Markers (6 biomarkers): Identifies issues like anemia, thyroid problems, or nutrient shortages causing low energy. Includes Total testosterone (Male only), Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH).
- Vitamins and Nutrients (3 biomarkers): Assesses levels essential for activity, immunity, and health. Includes Vitamin B12. For detailed definitions, see the Peptide Glossary.
- Inflammation (3 biomarkers): Gauges immune activity; prolonged elevation signals chronic issues linked to heart disease and diabetes. Includes C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Neutrophils.
- Blood Health (14 biomarkers): Ties to aging well and lower disease risk; factors into biological age calculation. Includes Lymphocytes, Eosinophils, White Blood Cell Count.
Calculating Biological Age
Biological age estimates bodily age from key biomarkers, showing function and aging pace versus chronological age. These inputs reveal how well the body handles aging processes.
Tracking occurs via a dashboard that stores past results. Users see improvements from lifestyle adjustments over time.
Program Features and Support
The longevity program includes an annual blood test and a report on up to 43 biomarkers. It provides biological age assessment, a dedicated healthcare practitioner, ongoing support, and a personalized treatment plan with possible medications, supplements, or lifestyle advice.
Tests qualify as HSA eligible. At-home testing uses a licensed technician at home or office, available only in Ontario.
Personalized plans follow results. Practitioners build strategies to reach health goals. Use tools like the Dosage & Cycle Planner to support any supplement tracking.
Expert Development
The program draws from longevity medicine leaders. Dr. Melody Hui, with a fellowship and board certification in Longevity Medicine from the American Academy of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine, helped design it.
She earned her medical degree at McMaster University and holds certifications in family medicine and emergency medicine. Dr. Hui has over a decade in emergency medicine plus advanced training in hormone replacement therapy, metabolic health, and functional medicine.
Her clinical experience shapes the program's focus on key health insights.
Home Collection Process
Home collection lets users test without travel. A licensed technician visits the home or office at a convenient time, skipping clinics. This option applies only in Ontario.
The process starts with health details, leads to testing, then a treatment plan and delivery.
User Experiences and Trust
Over 1,500,000 Canadians trust these services. Trustpilot rates it 4.8.
