My Journey to InsideTracker

After contracting a viral infection in February 2020, I struggled to regain my health, which hindered my ability to get work done. My health issues led me to explore InsideTracker, and my wife has also benefited from using the software.

How InsideTracker Works

InsideTracker is not just a mobile app that syncs with your wearables. The main point of InsideTracker is that it uses actual data from your blood to provide personalized advice on exercise, supplements, and diet.

To get started, you'll need to do a blood draw at one of their partnered labs, like Quest. The results are then sent to InsideTracker's software, which can be accessed on their website or your phone.

Getting My Results

When I received my InsideTracker results, I discovered two major issues I needed to address: high cholesterol and low testosterone levels.

Cholesterol Improvement

Since my first cholesterol test with InsideTracker in November 2021, I managed to drop my cholesterol by 48 points in just five months. This significant improvement was achieved without any medication, thanks to the personalized recommendations from InsideTracker.

I apologize for the misunderstanding. Here is the continuation from the second half of the transcript.

InsideTracker and Testosterone Levels

Using InsideTracker, I managed to significantly increase my testosterone levels, going from around 200 points to almost double that number.

My overall attitude towards life has greatly improved, and I now have better control over my emotions and the ability to work hard.

Specific Results and Optimal Health

InsideTracker provides very specific results for various biomarkers, allowing you to optimize even the smallest aspects of your health. For example, I could get my vitamin B12 levels down into the optimized zone by eliminating my multivitamin.

Track Improvements and Focus on Cognition

The software allows you to sort your results by category and track your improvements. I improved my B12, potassium, and sugar levels. I went from being pre-diabetic to extremely healthy.

InsideTracker's Inner Age

InsideTracker calculates your inner age based on all the metrics provided. Although my chronological age is almost 41, my inner age, according to InsideTracker, is 31. I have decreased my inner age by optimizing my health in just six months.

My Wife's Health Concerns and Experience with InsideTracker

Amy had been experiencing excessive sleepiness, which we initially thought was due to her being a mom and handling mom duties all day long. However, her energy levels didn't improve even after our kids grew older. She had lost interest in working out, which she had previously enjoyed.

After using InsideTracker, Amy discovered that she was severely deficient in iron. The platform recommended that she see a doctor, which led her to take iron supplements. This significantly improved her life, making her feel more energetic and waking up earlier without feeling exhausted.

Daily Journal and Goals

The app features a daily journal where you answer simple questions about stress, alcohol, caffeine, electronic device usage, and how you feel. This can be especially helpful for tracking sleep quality and understanding what factors may be affecting it.

The action plan section of the app focuses on daily goals for improving health. My goals are primarily food-related, as I'm working on improving my diet.

Customizing Action Plan and Biomarker Tracking

You can customize your action plan based on your primary goal: strength and power, overall health, injury prevention, fat loss, stress, metabolism, sleep, energy, heart health, or optimizing inner age. The app offers various recommendations related to exercise, diet, supplements, and lifestyle choices. You can also track your biomarkers and inner age through the app.

However, I recommend opting for InsideTracker's extensive panel of tests for a more comprehensive analysis.
