Hi Reader!

Last week, we talked about chronological age vs biological and lifestyle interventions that matter. Our medical system is primarily concerned with treating diseases. When doctors look at your blood test results, they flag markers that are already out of range, indicating a health problem. Your rate of aging or health optimization is rarely discussed, if ever.

Is the approach of avoiding disease enough for you? Or do you want to know if you're healthy, actively optimizing your physiology, and giving your body a real chance to age gracefully and maintain your vitality into the golden years? There is now a way to look inside and get a concrete answer that truly matters for your longevity and healthspan: Your Biological Age.

The good news is that, unlike your birth date, your biological age is highly modifiable.

The Power of Biological Age Testing

I've recently partnered with Superpower, a cutting-edge platform that specializes in biological age testing. Their foundational test measures over 100 critical biomarkers, providing a clear, actionable map of your internal health landscape that can motivate you to take control.

I tried the Superpower test myself, and the process was seamless:

  • It's super convenient. The onboarding process was straightforward, and scheduling the blood draw was simple (I went to a local lab, but they can even come to you!).
  • Within a couple of days, the full results will be available on a user-friendly portal.
  • The results are logically grouped into functional systems: Heart Health, Metabolic Health, Liver, Kidney, Inflammation, Hormones, and more, making it incredibly easy to understand what your numbers mean for your overall well-being.
  • They use tighter optimal ranges than conventional labs, pushing you past 'normal' and toward true optimization.
  • For each problematic area, they make lifestyle and supplement recommendations.

From Data to Deeply Personalized Strategy

The Superpower test provides the precise data we need. However, it's not meant to replace a doctor or a health coach. The platform offers generic, AI-generated lifestyle and diet tips, like "Strength‑train 2–3 days per week" or "Favor unsaturated over saturated fats." Which is understandable, it doesn't know you: your life, your food preferences, your habits, your stress level, or your health history.

The platform is overly zealous with its supplement recommendations, but they are of the highest quality. BTW, I offer the same products for at least 15% less at my online dispensary.

The takeaway is to stop guessing about your health and start measuring what truly matters. I am here to personalize your plan, help you adjust the supplement regimen (even if only for better pricing), and support you as your accountability partner on the journey toward reclaiming your energy, optimizing your metabolism, and achieving a truly long and healthy life.

I'll be in touch in two weeks. Take care!
