Measure the protective caps on your DNA that predict lifespan
Telomere length testing measures the protective caps at the ends of your chromosomes that shorten with each cell division. Telomere length is one of the strongest biomarkers of biological aging and a predictor of age-related disease risk.
Short telomeres are associated with accelerated aging, increased cancer risk, cardiovascular disease, and overall mortality. Unlike fixed genetic risk, telomere length is modifiable through lifestyle, stress management, and targeted interventions.
Telomeres are your cellular aging clock. While biological age testing (DNA methylation) is powerful, telomere testing gives you a complementary longevity metric focused specifically on cellular replication capacity. Gabriel uses telomere data alongside biological age and VO2 max to track whether your interventions — meditation, exercise, supplements, diet — are actually slowing your aging process. Retest annually to measure progress.
A simple blood draw at a lab or at-home dried blood spot kit. The lab measures telomere length using quantitative PCR. Results arrive in 3–4 weeks with your average telomere length and percentile ranking compared to population norms. Upload to Gabriel for integration with your longevity roadmap.
Conventional practitioners read these results through a disease-focused lens — looking for what's broken. Gabriel reads them through a naturopathic lens — looking for what's out of balance and how to restore it. We see optimal ranges, not just "normal" ranges. We connect findings across all your diagnostics to reveal patterns that siloed specialists miss.
