We live in an age of unprecedented health consciousness, with fitness trackers on our wrists and calorie-counting apps on our phones. Yet even as we monitor our steps and macros, the unseen imbalances in our bodies can affect our well-being without us ever realizing it.

Suboptimal vitamin D levels, for instance, can increase the risk of osteoporosis, heart disease, and even certain cancers.

What's more, a staggering 90% of InsideTracker customers had five or more suboptimal biomarkers on their initial tests. That's why our goal is to empower you to take control of your health by shining a light on it and providing personalized tips tailored to your unique biochemistry.

Your outcomes are matched with customized optimal ranges, not only disease risk thresholds. This emphasizes which areas require the most attention.

InsideTracker doesn't just show you the biomarkers; it provides personalized optimal zones for each of them based on your demographics and goals.

DNA testing

InsideTracker also offers DNA testing for up to 39 different genetic markers related to fitness, nutrition, and longevity. They may influence many aspects of health and can provide helpful context for your plan.

For example, you may discover you have a genetic predisposition for elevated cholesterol. This insight can motivate you to be proactive with lifestyle changes to try to reduce your cholesterol levels through diet, exercise, and other natural methods before considering medication.

DNA isn't your destiny. It's kind of like your roadmap toward showing you how to live a healthier and longer life, and it can also influence what you choose to implement into your day-to-day life.

InsideTracker integrates with wearable devices like Apple Watch, Oura Ring, Garmin, and Fitbit to collect real-time health data. This can track lifestyle factors like sleep, activity, and heart rate.

Combining this real-time data with biomarker testing provides a comprehensive picture of your overall health and helps confirm that your lifestyle changes positively impact your biomarkers.
