Biomarker Testing
Our Practice is Built Around Research.
Guided by Biology. Measured by Biomarkers.
The Science Behind Our Precision Formulations
Every Biomaker we Test Explained
We have about 48 biomarkers measuring cellular energy, inflammation, metabolism, hormones, and longevity — the complete picture of your biological age. These measurable biomarkers reveal what’s happening inside your cells right now—and can provide valuable insights into your biological aging and health years before symptoms appear.
We Don’t Guess. We Measure.
The human body does not operate through isolated pathways. Cellular energy, inflammation, metabolism, oxidative stress, cardiovascular function, hormones, nutrient status, and organ function are interconnected. That is why our approach begins with biomarker assessment. We identify measurable indicators of your current biological state, interpret them within the appropriate clinical context, and use the findings to guide a more personalized wellness strategy
OUR SCIENTIFIC APPROACH.
We don’t formulate based on trends. We formulate based on biology, evidence, and measurable outcomes. Our approach is informed by leading research in genomic medicine, cellular biology, longevity science, and precision health, including the research-driven formulation philosophy associated with Dr. Jin-Xiong She, PhD. His approach emphasizes evidence-based ingredient selection, clinically meaningful dosing, multi-pathway biological support, and measurable outcomes.
OUR PRECISION PROCESS:
- RESEARCH → Research the Biology
- BIOMARKERS → Measure the Individual
- PRECISION FORMULATION → Formulate with Purpose
- RETESTING →Retest & Optimize
- We are Guided by the principles from genomic and precision medicine.
- Our goal is to move wellness away from guesswork and toward evidence-informed, biomarker-guided decision-making.
- Because precision wellness starts with understanding your biology.
- Instead of simply asking, “What supplement should you take?” we ask: “What does your biology tell us, what pathways may need support, and how can we objectively measure the response?
TEST. ACT. OPTIMIZE.:
- This principle reflects a research-driven precision medicine model in which baseline testing informs an intervention and follow-up testing helps evaluate the response. At Dr Brian Wellness, we apply this philosophy to our Precision Biomarker Assessment Program.

NAD+ powers over 500 cellular processes including energy production and DNA repair. This exclusive test (not available in standard labs) reveals your cellular age and helps personalize supplementation to restore optimal function.
Klotho is called the longevity protein because high levels predict longer healthspan. This exclusive biomarker (rarely measured elsewhere) declines with age and correlates with cognitive function, kidney health, and cardiovascular protection.
SABG identifies senescent cells, the “zombie cells” that refuse to die and poison surrounding tissue. This rare marker directly measures one of aging’s primary drivers.
ROM measures oxidative stress, the cellular damage caused by unstable molecules that accelerates aging. High levels indicate your antioxidant defenses need support.
TAC shows how well your body neutralizes harmful free radicals. Low capacity means your cells are vulnerable to oxidative damage that drives aging.
This marker reveals DNA damage from oxidative stress. Elevated levels signal accelerated cellular aging and increased disease risk.
hs-CRP measures systemic inflammation, a key driver of heart disease, diabetes, and neurodegeneration. Elevated levels predict cardiovascular events years in advance.
IL-6 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that rises with age and chronic stress. High levels accelerate muscle loss, weaken immunity, and promote disease progression.

IL-8 drives inflammation and recruits immune cells to sites of damage. Chronically elevated levels contribute to inflammatory aging and tissue breakdown.
IL-1β triggers inflammatory responses and plays a central role in age-related diseases. Persistent elevation indicates your immune system is stuck in overdrive.
TNF-α regulates inflammation and immune responses. Chronic elevation damages tissues and accelerates age-related decline.
D-Dimer measures blood clot breakdown products, revealing increased clotting risk. Elevated levels predict cardiovascular events and indicate vascular inflammation.
Glucose tracking reveals how well your body manages blood sugar. Consistently elevated levels damage blood vessels, nerves, and organs even before diabetes develops.

- GSP reflects shorter-term blood sugar control (2-3 weeks) and catches fluctuations that HbA1c might miss. It helps fine-tune dietary interventions.
Homocysteine damages blood vessels and increases dementia risk when elevated. High levels often indicate B vitamin deficiencies that are easily corrected.
Insulin reveals metabolic health before blood sugar rises. Elevated insulin (hyperinsulinemia) precedes diabetes by years and drives weight gain and inflammation.
C-Peptide measures your body’s insulin production capacity. It distinguishes between insulin resistance and pancreatic exhaustion.
LDL-C carries cholesterol to tissues and contributes to arterial plaque when oxidized. Managing LDL levels reduces heart attack and stroke risk.
HDL-C removes excess cholesterol from arteries and fights inflammation. Low HDL predicts cardiovascular disease independent of LDL levels.
- ApoB counts the actual number of cholesterol-carrying particles in your blood, giving a more accurate cardiovascular risk assessment than standard cholesterol tests. One ApoB measurement beats both LDL and total cholesterol for predicting heart disease.
Lp(a) is a genetic cardiovascular risk factor that standard lipid panels miss. Elevated levels increase heart attack and stroke risk regardless of your other cholesterol numbers.
Triglycerides measure fat in your bloodstream. High levels indicate metabolic dysfunction and increase cardiovascular disease risk.
ALP reveals liver and bone health. Abnormal levels indicate liver disease, bile duct problems, or bone disorders.
ALT is the most sensitive marker for liver cell damage. Elevated levels detect fatty liver disease and hepatic inflammation early.
- eGFR-Cr measures kidney filtering capacity based on creatinine levels. Declining function predicts cardiovascular risk and overall mortality.
eGFR-Cys provides a more accurate kidney function assessment than creatinine-based tests, especially in older adults. It catches kidney decline earlier.
Uric acid contributes to gout, kidney stones, and cardiovascular disease when elevated. High levels also indicate metabolic dysfunction and oxidative stress.
DHEA is a precursor to sex hormones that declines steadily with age. Low levels correlate with reduced immunity, muscle loss, and decreased longevity.
HGH maintains muscle mass, bone density, and metabolic health. Age-related decline contributes to frailty and body composition changes.
- Prolactin regulates reproductive function and immune response. Abnormal levels indicate pituitary problems or medication effects.
Testosterone maintains muscle mass, bone density, libido, and cognitive function in both men and women. Age-related decline affects energy, mood, and body composition.
Estradiol is the primary estrogen that supports bone health, cardiovascular function, and cognitive performance. Declining levels during menopause drive multiple aging processes in women.
Progesterone balances estrogen and supports reproductive health, sleep quality, and mood regulation. Imbalances affect women’s health across the lifespan.
SHBG binds to sex hormones and controls how much is available for your body to use. Abnormal levels reveal metabolic problems and hormone imbalances.
LH triggers sex hormone production and reveals whether hormone problems originate in the brain or reproductive organs. Abnormal levels help pinpoint the cause of hormonal dysfunction.
FSH regulates reproductive function and indicates menopausal status in women. Elevated levels in men suggest testicular problems.
TSH reveals thyroid function problems before symptoms appear. Abnormal levels affect metabolism, energy, weight, and cognitive function.
Free T3 is the active thyroid hormone that regulates metabolism in every cell. Low levels cause fatigue, weight gain, and cognitive fog even when TSH looks normal.
Free T4 is the thyroid hormone your body converts to active T3. Testing both reveals whether your thyroid produces enough hormone and whether your body converts it properly.
Vitamin D3 supports immune function, bone health, and reduces inflammation. Most adults are deficient, which accelerates aging and disease risk.
Folate enables DNA synthesis and repair while managing homocysteine levels. Deficiency increases cardiovascular disease and dementia risk.
- B12 supports nerve function, red blood cell production, and DNA synthesis. Deficiency causes fatigue, cognitive decline, and irreversible nerve damage if left untreated.
CK measures muscle tissue breakdown. Elevated levels indicate muscle damage from exercise, injury, or disease.
Ferritin stores iron and reveals your body’s iron reserves. Both deficiency and excess increase disease risk and affect energy, immunity, and cognitive function.
Albumin is your body’s primary transport protein. Low levels indicate poor nutrition, liver disease, or chronic inflammation.
Free PSA helps distinguish benign prostate enlargement from cancer risk. The ratio of free to total PSA improves diagnostic accuracy.
Total PSA screens for prostate problems including cancer. Elevated levels require further investigation but don’t confirm disease on their own.
