Longevity Screener FAQ

Introducing the highly anticipated Longevity Screener: a revolutionary tool for preventive healthcare and healthy aging.

Overview

In the quest for a healthier and longer life, understanding the potential health risks as we age is crucial. The Longevity Screener is our latest innovation designed to holistically determine the biggest health risks we may might face as we grow older.

By leveraging state-of-the-art models and a comprehensive analysis of genetic, biometric, and ancestry information, the Longevity Screener provides a precise and personalized assessment of health.

How Does the Longevity Screener Work?

The Longevity Screener integrates multiple data sources to deliver its insights:

1. Genetic Information: Analyzing DNA to identify potential genetic predispositions to various conditions.
2. Genetic Ancestry Information: Considering ancestral background to account for hereditary traits that might influence your clients' health.
3. Biometric Data: Including metrics such as Body Mass Index (BMI), self-reported health conditions, and lab results.

Comprehensive Risk Assessment

By combining these diverse data points, the Longevity Screener goes beyond traditional genetic risk assessments. Our high-accuracy models calculate your risk of developing various health conditions over the next 10 years and throughout your life. If you have a high risk, they will provide the odds of developing those conditions. This holistic approach ensures a more accurate and tailored risk assessment, helping you make informed decisions about your clients' health and wellness.

Precision in Predictive Healthcare

One of the standout features of the Longevity Screener is its ability to provide different results than a standard genetic predisposition test. This discrepancy arises because the Longevity Screener considers more than just genetic data:

Genetic Risk vs. Longevity Screener Results: While a genetic report might indicate a high risk for a particular condition, the Longevity Screener might show a lower risk for the same condition. It's important to understand that this doesn't mean the genetic risk provided by that report is wrong. Instead, it reflects a key difference in approach:

• Genetic Risk: Traditional genetic tests assess your clients' risk for various conditions based solely on their DNA. They provide valuable insights into potential health issues based on their genetic makeup.
• Longevity Screener Results: The Longevity Screener, on the other hand, incorporates additional data such as biometric information (e.g., BMI, existing condition) and genetic ancestry. This holistic approach means the Longevity Screener can offer a more nuanced and precise risk assessment. For example, even if their genetic risk for a condition is high, the Longevity Screener might show a lower overall risk because it accounts for other factors that mitigate this genetic predisposition.

What to do if you have a high risk

If the Longevity Screener indicates a high risk for certain health conditions, follow these steps to manage and mitigate those risks effectively:

Step 1: Go to Report

Access the detailed report to find the specific lab markers to test. Labs are a crucial part of understanding current health status and identifying areas that need attention.

Step 2: Analyze Labs

Review lab results carefully. Establish a baseline to understand current health markers and track any changes or improvements over time. This analysis will help you monitor progress and make informed health decisions.

Step 3: Follow Recommendations

Implement the personalized recommendations provided in the report. These suggestions are tailored to address specific risk factors and are designed to help improve overall health. Following these recommendations can significantly reduce risk of developing the conditions identified by the Longevity Screener.

Step 4: Optimize Lab Results

Work towards bringing all lab results to optimal levels. This may involve making lifestyle changes, undergoing treatments, and engaging in ongoing monitoring. By actively managing health markers, you can achieve the best possible health outcomes and reduce long-term risks.
