Key terms explained clearly — so health markers become easier to understand.

ApoB reflects the number of certain blood lipid particles that can be relevant for cardiovascular risk.

A measurable health signal from blood, wearables, or other tests. Biomarkers help interpret areas such as inflammation, metabolism, or cardiovascular risk.

Evidence level describes how strongly a statement is supported by scientific research. Higher evidence means stronger study support.

Fasting insulin shows how much insulin the body needs while fasting. Higher values can be an early signal of insulin resistance.

HbA1c reflects average blood glucose over several weeks and helps interpret glucose metabolism and diabetes risk.

Healthspan describes the period of life spent in good health and function. It is often more important for healthy aging than lifespan alone.

hs-CRP is a blood marker for low-grade inflammation. It helps interpret inflammatory activity in the body.

Inflammation is an immune response. Chronic low-grade inflammation can matter for healthy aging and prevention.

Longevity means not only living longer, but staying healthy, functional, and independent for as long as possible.

Metabolism describes how the body processes, stores, and uses energy. It includes glucose, insulin, blood lipids, and body composition.

Micronutrients are vitamins, minerals, and trace elements the body needs in small amounts.

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fats. They are relevant for cardiovascular health, inflammation regulation, and brain function.

Triglycerides are blood fats. Higher levels can be connected to metabolic problems, fatty liver, or cardiovascular risk.

25-OH vitamin D is the main blood marker used to assess vitamin D status.
