Blood Tests for Longevity: The Core Panel to Request

Start with ApoB, lipid panel, fasting glucose, HbA1c, fasting insulin, hs-CRP, CMP, CBC, and thyroid markers. These cover major cardiometabolic risk pathways.

Choose a repeat cadence you can sustain, often every three to six months during active interventions.

Single numbers matter less than directional trends linked to behavior change. Use context: sleep, stress, training load, and nutrition adherence.

Aim for fewer but higher-quality interventions between labs.

Every panel should trigger a next action: continue, adjust, or stop. Avoid collecting data with no implementation plan.

Work with a licensed clinician for diagnosis, treatment, and medication decisions.
