Diagnostics & TestingContinuous Glucose Monitoring: The Complete Guide
A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) reveals how YOUR body responds to food in real-time, not population averages. Dave Asprey calls it the most impactful health tool he's used. This guide covers how CGMs work, what you'll learn, and how to use the data to optimize energy, weight, and long-term metabolic health.

Diagnostics & TestingBlood Panel Testing: The Complete Guide
Annual bloodwork is the foundation of data-driven biohacking. Peter Attia's framework prioritizes ApoB, insulin, HbA1c, and inflammatory markers over standard lipid panels. This guide covers what to test, how often, where to order, and how to interpret results.

Diagnostics & TestingVO2 Max: The Complete Guide
VO₂ max — the maximum rate at which you can use oxygen — is one of the best-studied predictors of all-cause mortality. Peter Attia calls it a vital sign. This guide covers lab testing vs wearable estimates, what 'good' looks like by age, and a training mix of Zone 2 plus intervals.

Diagnostics & TestingOral Microbiome: The Complete Guide
The oral microbiome is a distinct ecosystem — not just a subset of gut health. Oral dysbiosis links to gum disease, cardiovascular inflammation, and possibly cognitive markers. Nasal breathing, hygiene, and targeted oral care are actionable biohacks. This guide connects mouth tape, dental basics, and what actually moves oral bacteria.

Diagnostics & TestingBody Composition Tracking: The Complete Guide
Weight alone misleads longevity-focused people — especially on GLP-1s, creatine, or a new lifting program. This guide compares DEXA, smart scales, and waist circumference, and how often to measure without obsession.

Diagnostics & TestingApoB & Lipids for Longevity: The Complete Guide
Cardiovascular disease remains a top killer; lipid panels are the cheapest longevity blood test most people skip interpreting correctly. This guide explains ApoB vs LDL-C, Lp(a), and lifestyle plus supplement levers — not statin prescribing.

Diagnostics & TestingBone Density for Longevity: The Complete Guide
Bone is living tissue that responds to load. Osteoporosis and sarcopenia together drive falls, fractures, and loss of independence — the outcome Peter Attia calls 'the marginal decade.' This guide covers DEXA interpretation, resistance training, calcium/vitamin D/K2, and who needs medical treatment beyond lifestyle.
