Longevity Essential Analysis
Seven areas of your longevity, one person.
Seven areas of how you age, read from your DNA by a scientist. For each one you get the same two things: what your DNA shows, and a few clear things you can do about it. This is informational and educational, never clinical.
- 01
Disposition
How you are built to age
What your DNA shows: where you lean across the systems that decide how well you age, the heart, metabolism, the brain, your hormones. These are tendencies, not verdicts, and reading them early shows where your effort is worth the most.
What you can do: a few clear changes, chosen for your biology and weighed against the science. Anything that matters clinically is flagged for your physician. This is informational, never a diagnosis.
- 02
Inheritance
What you could pass on
What your DNA shows: a set panel of variants that can be passed to a child, the kind a couple often wants to understand before trying, or simply to know for themselves. We say plainly what is present, what is not, and what it means.
What you can do: turn a surprise into an informed conversation. Each finding draws on ClinVar (the public reference library of gene variants) and the published research, and anything of clinical consequence goes to your physician.
- 03
Pharmacology
How you handle medicines
What your DNA shows: how your body is likely to process common medicines, antidepressants, statins, opioids, blood thinners, anaesthetics. This comes from the genes (your CYP enzymes and transporters) that break drugs down quickly or slowly.
What you can do: carry these findings with you. Show them to any physician about to write you a prescription, so the dose is an informed choice from the start rather than trial and error.
- 04
Lineage
Where you come from
What your DNA shows: where your ancestry comes from, the deep maternal line written into your mitochondria (passed mother to mother for tens of thousands of years), and the deep paternal line on the Y, if your DNA carries one.
What you gain: not a party-trick percentage, but a careful picture of the people whose biology you inherited, the context that makes the rest of your analysis read more truly.
- 05
The everyday
Food, drink, sleep, movement
What your DNA shows: how you handle caffeine, alcohol, lactose, gluten and salt, the foods your body uses well and the ones it struggles with, the kind of exercise it rewards, and the sleep that suits you.
What you can do: make small daily choices tuned to your biology instead of a population average. Over years, that is the quiet difference between working with your body and fighting it.
- 06
Supplementation
A personal plan
What your DNA shows: where a supplement is likely to help you, and where it is not, read from your genes and from any bloodwork you choose to share.
What you can do: keep a short, reasoned list with doses the research supports, and drop the rest. It is meant to replace the drawer full of guesses, not add to it. Educational guidance to discuss with your physician, never a prescription.
- 07
Together
If you are two
What your DNA shows, for two: couples receive an extra analysis of what you carry together, what a future child could inherit, the maternal and paternal lines you would join, and a measured look at the traits two genomes can hint at.
What you gain: read with restraint, and written for two people who would like to understand each other, and the life ahead of them, a little better.
What is not in this analysis
Restraint is part of the work.
We leave out traits where the science is still thin, and we never dress up a weak signal as a personal prediction. The analysis does not diagnose, treat, or prevent disease, it is informational and educational. Where a part of your biology cannot yet be read responsibly, we say so, and leave it for later, when the science catches up.
There is also what this test cannot reach. A genotype (a DNA chip) reads about one million of your three billion positions, the common, well-studied ones. Rare variants, larger structural changes, and the deepest medicine-handling detail sit in the parts of your DNA it does not touch. For those, and for anything of clinical consequence, the deeper path is a clinical reading from Helixir Health.
The deeper path
When this analysis ends, Helixir Health begins.
Our sister practice reads all of your DNA, not a sample of it, with full whole-genome sequencing. It adds a detailed blood panel drawn at home, pairs your DNA with those results, and ends in a report a physician signs. For the full answer, and for couples planning seriously, that is the door.
