How it works
How it works
What’s included with every test
Personalised age clocks
Your results will generate age clocks with clear indications of what is both positively and negatively affecting vital aspects of your health.
Tailor-made food recommendations
Our library of food items features over 250 foods, so your recommendations are now more personalised than ever. It’s quick and easy to see which aspects of your health are affected by a particular food, making it easier to reach your goals.
Bespoke Supplement
We create your own unique precision-blended formula based on your results. We only use ingredients that will optimise your own biology to help reduce inflammation, microbial imbalances and support critical cellular functions.
Your genetic blueprint
Your genome is the instruction manual for building and operating your body. Within this manual, small, natural variations in your DNA code can have subtle effects on its function that affect your health in the short and long term.
Understanding your genetic profile can help you make the most of your biological potential, proactively address any potential health risks and empower you to make informed health choices.
We analyse hundreds of thousands of genetic variants that produce detailed insights into the gene variants that affect your well-being.
What’s living in your gut?
Your microbiome is the collective name of all bacteria, fungi, and viruses that live in, and on your body, and they can range from harmful to completely essential. We can significantly influence our microbes, for better or worse, through both diet and lifestyle.
A healthy and diverse gut microbiome is essential for optimal digestion, a robust immune system, and produces essential compounds that can have a significant influence on your health. In the short-term, an unbalanced gut microbiome may affect digestion and mood, while in the long-term it may increase your risk of disease and negatively impact your biological age.
Your stool sample undergoes a metagenomic analysis of over 300 gut microbiome species diversity and abundance to discover how it is affecting your body and health.
Your blood composition
Blood biomarkers provide extremely useful insights into your health. They measure how well certain processes and organs are functioning, and can help you make the most effective lifestyle changes to positively impact your personal health and longevity.
Your blood sample* undergoes a thorough analysis, including testing for thyroid, sex and growth hormones, as well as vitamins and minerals which are essential for many biological processes and longevity.
Regular testing helps you track your progress, but also helps to establish what your 'normal' looks like.
* Professional blood sampling is arranged by The NU through our testing partners in your location.
NU insights
We translate your complex blood and genetic information into personal summaries that describe the state of critical biological processes in your body.
We know understanding health data can be overwhelming, so to make it easier to digest we group the summaries into three categories: strength, focus and neutral to help make more informed decisions about your health.
NU benchmarks
Biomarkers are unique characteristics of your body that can be measured and reveal a lot about the state of your health.
We calculate your personalised target ranges for biomarkers, such as cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and blood sugar (glucose) levels, to provide you with insights into your current well-being and help you establish an accurate health benchmark.
Our recommendations help you take action to bring your biomarkers into your optimal range.
NU age clocks
Your health and well-being can be a more accurate measure of your real, biological age than the number of candles on your birthday cake.
We calculate your unique 'age clocks' using a holistic approach that combines your blood and microbiome data to deliver the most comprehensive measurement on the market of your biological age, your ‘NU Age’.
- Blood age calculation
Each one of your blood biomarkers is part of your ageing story and helps us establish your body’s real age.
- Microbiome age calculation
The diversity of your microbiome and the abundance of certain bacterial species are good indicators of your real age, as diversity tends to decrease over time.
NU lifestyle
Optimal health doesn't stop at knowledge, you need to take action.
To help you on your journey to improved health, we provide you with a highly personalised, science-backed action plan, based on the results of your NU questionnaire, your unique biomarkers, genetic profile, and gut microbiome analysis, created by our team of experts using AI-powered technology.
