A biometric screening delivers a precise, evidence-based snapshot of your cardiovascular health, metabolic function, and key risk indicators — in under 30 minutes.
What is it
A preventive health snapshot
A biometric screening is a clinical assessment performed by a licensed health professional that measures key biological markers tied to your long-term wellness. Unlike a full physical exam, it is fast, non-invasive (or minimally invasive via a finger-stick), and focused on the indicators that predict risk for heart disease, diabetes, and metabolic conditions — often before symptoms ever appear.
Results are typically delivered the same day or within 24 hours, reviewed alongside personalized guidance from a certified clinician or health coach.
What it consists of
The screening process
Each screening follows a consistent, standardized protocol to ensure accurate, comparable results over time.
Step 01
Registration & Consent
Check-in, health history intake, and informed consent signature.
Step 02
Blood Collection
Finger-stick or venipuncture draw after an 8–12 hour fast.
Step 03
Physical Measurements
Height, weight, BMI, waist circumference, and blood pressure.
Step 04
Lab Analysis
Sample analyzed on-site or at a CLIA-certified laboratory.
Step 05
Results Review
A clinician reviews your results and flags out-of-range values.
Step 06
Wellness Coaching
Personalized recommendations and referrals if follow-up care is needed.
What is tested
Biomarker panels
A standard biometric screening covers four core panels. Hover the i icon next to any marker to learn why it matters for your health.
Lipid Panel
Cardiovascular risk markers
Total Cholesterol
The combined amount of all cholesterol in your blood. High levels raise your risk of plaque buildup in arteries, which can lead to heart attack or stroke.
Aim for under 200 mg/dL. Limit saturated fats, fried foods, and processed snacks.
mg/dLNormal <200LDL — "Bad" Cholesterol
LDL deposits cholesterol onto artery walls, narrowing blood flow over time. It is the #1 modifiable risk factor for heart attack.
Lower is better. Cut saturated fats, eat more oats and beans, and stay active.
mg/dLNormal <100HDL — "Good" Cholesterol
HDL clears cholesterol from your arteries. Higher levels are protective against heart disease.
Aim for 60+ mg/dL. Aerobic exercise and healthy fats like avocado and olive oil raise HDL.
mg/dLNormal ≥60Triglycerides
Blood fats derived from food. Chronically high levels damage arteries and signal poor metabolic health.
Reduce sugary drinks, alcohol, and refined carbs. Fasting is required for an accurate result.
mg/dLNormal <150Non-HDL Cholesterol
All "bad" cholesterol types combined — a more complete picture of cardiovascular risk than LDL alone.
Target under 130 mg/dL. Diet, exercise, and provider follow-up are key if elevated.
mg/dLNormal <130Glucose / Diabetes Panel
Blood sugar & insulin resistance
Fasting Blood Glucose
Measures sugar in your blood after not eating for 8–12 hours. Elevated levels may signal prediabetes or diabetes. Persistently high levels damage nerves, kidneys, and eyes.
Drink water only before your test. Limit sugary foods and refined carbs daily.
mg/dLNormal 70–99HbA1c — 3-Month Average
Reflects your average blood sugar over the past 2–3 months. It cannot be skewed by eating well the day before your test.
Below 5.7% is healthy. Consistent diet and daily movement drive lasting improvement.
%Normal <5.7%Physical Biometrics
Body composition & pressure
Systolic Pressure
The top number — the force your heart exerts when pumping. Consistently high readings strain the heart and arteries.
Reduce sodium, manage stress, and exercise regularly. Avoid caffeine 30 min before testing.
mmHgNormal <120Diastolic Pressure
The bottom number — pressure in your arteries when your heart rests between beats. Elevated readings increase risk of kidney damage and stroke.
Stay hydrated and limit alcohol. Meditation and deep breathing can lower readings over time.
mmHgNormal <80BMI
A ratio of weight to height used to estimate body fat. High BMI correlates with increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and joint problems.
BMI doesn't distinguish muscle from fat. Use it alongside waist size for the full picture.
kg/m²Normal 18.5–24.9Waist Circumference
Belly fat around the midsection signals visceral fat — the kind that surrounds organs and drives inflammation, heart disease, and diabetes risk.
Healthy: under 35" for women, under 40" for men. Strength training and cutting processed carbs help most.
inchesRisk >35" F / >40" MOptional Add-ons
Extended clinical panels
Cotinine
A byproduct of nicotine that stays in your blood for days. Confirms current tobacco or nicotine product use, including vaping and secondhand exposure.
Even secondhand smoke raises cotinine. Quitting smoking is one of the highest-impact health changes you can make.
ng/mLNon-user <1High-Sensitivity CRP
CRP is released when your body is inflamed. Chronic low-grade inflammation silently drives heart disease, diabetes, and autoimmune conditions.
An anti-inflammatory diet — rich in vegetables and omega-3s, low in processed food — is your best defense.
mg/LLow risk <1.0TSH — Thyroid Function
TSH signals your thyroid to produce hormones that regulate metabolism, energy, weight, and mood. Imbalances often go undetected for years.
Fatigue, weight changes, or mood shifts may warrant a thyroid check. Share symptoms with your clinician.
mIU/LNormal 0.4–4.0Complete Metabolic Panel
14 tests covering kidney function, liver health, electrolyte balance, and blood protein levels — a broad snapshot of how your organs are functioning.
Stay well hydrated before your draw. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours — it directly affects liver markers.

What clinicians look for
Clinicians use evidence-based thresholds from the AHA, ADA, and NCEP. Hover the i icon next to any marker or category for plain-language guidance.
Lipid panel| Marker | Optimal / Normal | Borderline | High Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Cholesterol Total Cholesterol The sum of all cholesterol in your blood. Think of it as the scoreboard — but you need LDL and HDL separately to understand your real risk. Keep it under 200. Diet, exercise, and not smoking all move this number in the right direction. |
< 200 mg/dL | 200–239 mg/dL | ≥ 240 mg/dL |
| LDL Cholesterol LDL — "Bad" Cholesterol LDL sticks to artery walls and narrows blood flow. It is the #1 modifiable risk factor for heart attack. Under 100 is ideal. Cut saturated fats, eat more oats and beans, and stay active. |
< 100 mg/dL | 130–159 mg/dL | ≥ 160 mg/dL |
| HDL Cholesterol HDL — "Good" Cholesterol HDL clears cholesterol from your arteries. A high HDL actively lowers your overall cardiovascular risk. 60 mg/dL or higher is protective. Walking, cycling, and omega-3 fats raise HDL naturally. |
≥ 60 mg/dL | 40–59 mg/dL | < 40 mg/dL |
| Triglycerides Triglycerides Blood fats that spike after sugary or high-carb meals. Chronically high levels damage arteries and signal poor metabolic health. Fast 8–12 hours before your test. Cut soda, juice, alcohol, and white bread to lower levels. |
< 150 mg/dL | 150–199 mg/dL | ≥ 200 mg/dL |
| Marker | Normal | Prediabetes | Diabetes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fasting Glucose Fasting Glucose Your blood sugar level after an overnight fast. Reveals how efficiently your body uses insulin. Persistently high levels damage nerves, kidneys, and eyes. Target 70–99 mg/dL. A consistent sleep schedule and low-sugar diet make a measurable difference. |
70–99 mg/dL | 100–125 mg/dL | ≥ 126 mg/dL |
| HbA1c HbA1c — 3-Month Average Shows your average blood sugar over the past 2–3 months. Cannot be faked by eating well the day before — it reflects your consistent habits. Below 5.7% is the goal. Consistent healthy eating and daily movement drive lasting improvement. |
< 5.7% | 5.7–6.4% | ≥ 6.5% |
| Category | Systolic (mmHg) | Diastolic (mmHg) |
|---|---|---|
| Normal Normal Blood Pressure Your heart pumps efficiently without excess strain on your arteries. This range is associated with the lowest long-term cardiovascular risk. Maintain it with regular activity, low sodium intake, and stress management. |
< 120 | < 80 |
| Elevated Elevated Blood Pressure Not yet hypertension, but a clear warning sign. Without lifestyle changes, most people in this range develop Stage 1 hypertension within a few years. Reduce sodium, increase movement, and manage stress — before medication becomes necessary. |
120–129 | < 80 |
| Stage 1 Hypertension Stage 1 Hypertension Your artery walls are under consistent excess pressure, raising risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage — even if you feel fine. Clinician follow-up is recommended. Lifestyle changes can reverse Stage 1 without medication in many cases. |
130–139 | 80–89 |
| Stage 2 Hypertension Stage 2 Hypertension Significantly elevated pressure requiring prompt medical attention. Long-term Stage 2 hypertension is a leading cause of heart attack, stroke, and kidney failure. See your doctor promptly. Medication combined with lifestyle changes is typically needed at this stage. |
≥ 140 | ≥ 90 |
| Marker | Healthy Range | Elevated Risk | High Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| BMI Body Mass Index A quick estimate of body fat based on height and weight. Higher BMI correlates with greater risk for diabetes and heart disease, but doesn't account for muscle mass. Use BMI alongside waist size for a more complete picture. Small, consistent lifestyle changes move BMI over time. |
18.5–24.9 | 25.0–29.9 | ≥ 30 |
| Waist — female Waist Size — Women Belly fat above 35 inches signals excess visceral fat stored around organs, raising risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes regardless of overall weight. Reducing refined carbs and added sugars is the most direct way to shrink waist size. |
< 35 in | 35–37 in | > 37 in |
| Waist — male Waist Size — Men A waist over 40 inches indicates dangerous visceral fat around abdominal organs — a stronger predictor of heart disease than BMI alone. Strength training combined with aerobic exercise is especially effective for reducing belly fat in men. |
< 40 in | 40–43 in | > 43 in |
Reference ranges are based on AHA, ADA, and NCEP guidelines for general adult populations. Individual risk stratification requires clinical judgment. Values outside normal range do not constitute a diagnosis — participants are encouraged to follow up with their primary care provider.
