Insulin sensitivity
How effectively your cells respond to insulin affects energy stability, body composition, and long-term metabolic risk. We track it before glucose alone tells the full story.
Muscle mass
Muscle is metabolic reserve—it influences glucose disposal, hormonal signaling, and functional capacity as you age.
Hormonal rhythm
Cortisol, thyroid, and sex hormones interact with metabolism. Rhythm and proportion matter as much as single lab values.
Aerobic reserve (VO₂ max)
Cardiorespiratory fitness predicts mortality and metabolic flexibility better than many static labs. It’s a signal worth tracking over time.
Body composition
Where you store fat—and how much lean mass you retain—often matters more than scale weight for metabolic outcomes.
