We wish to remain as young as possible as long as possible, so we can live the life of freedom we desire.

Methylated age testing, also known as epigenetic age testing, provides insights into biological age by assessing patterns of DNA methylation in specific regions of the genome. This testing compares your chronological age (the number of years you’ve been alive) to your biological age (how old your body appears at a cellular level). The results can offer valuable information about the rate of aging and potential age-related health risks. Specifically, methylated age testing may reveal whether your biological age aligns with your chronological age, or if you are aging faster or slower than expected based on your DNA methylation patterns. This information can help identify areas for targeted interventions to optimize health, prevent age-related diseases, and promote longevity.

We take a very long range view of your health, and look at many more markers of health than traditional medicine. Our holistic precision medicine approach helps you identify your personal health goals, the obstacles to achieving those goals, and develop a personalized health, longevity, and wellness plan to live the vibrant life you desire. Traditional medicine mostly responds to disease states after they arise; we help you improve your health often very early in the process before the disease state can develop. Additionally, we help identify and treat the root cause, and rather than prescribing medications to manage the problem, we help to reverse the problem.

The difference lies in the quality and credibility of the supplements we provide compared to those available on platforms like Amazon.

In contrast, products available on Amazon may vary widely in terms of quality, sourcing, and manufacturing practices, making it difficult to guarantee their safety and effectiveness.
