The
Academy
Scientifically backed deep dives into your physiology. Objective, evidence-based, and designed for ambitious biohackers.
The Biomarkers
Heart Rate Variability
The window into your autonomic nervous system. Why the interval between two heartbeats is the ultimate measure of recovery.
Resting Heart Rate
Cardiovascular efficiency. Understand how your physiological baseline impacts your longevity.
Sleep Architecture
The biology of regeneration. The precise mechanisms of REM and Deep Sleep for cognitive and physical restoration.
VO2 Max
The maximum amount of oxygen your body can process. One of the strongest known predictors for longevity.
Wrist Temperature
A highly sensitive early warning system for your immune system. Detects illness days before you feel symptoms.
Respiratory Rate
An indicator of your central nervous system control and metabolic load.
Blood Oxygen
How well do your red blood cells transport life-sustaining oxygen deep into your tissues?
Time in Daylight
How natural morning light programs your evening melatonin production.
Gait Asymmetry
The invisible analysis of your musculoskeletal system. How neurological fatigue becomes visible in your gait pattern.
Hierarchy of Interventions
The Foundation of Longevity
Before looking for supplements, consider this pyramid. Pills and powders account for a maximum of 1-5% of your biological success. They can optimize a strong foundation of sleep, exercise, and nutrition, but can never replace it.
Supplements: The Basics
Supplements: Longevity
NMN & NAD+
Fueling the mitochondria and activating sirtuins for cellular repair.
Resveratrol
The "longevity gene" activator found in red wine, mimicking caloric restriction.
Spermidine
Inducing autophagy to clear cellular debris and senescent cells.
Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AKG)
Epigenetic reprogramming and extending healthspan.
Fisetin
A powerful senolytic that selectively clears zombie cells.
Rapamycin (mTOR)
The most effective pharmacological intervention for longevity discovered to date. (Rx Only)
Supplements: Focus & Stress
Ashwagandha (KSM-66)
Modulating cortisol dynamics and enhancing stress resilience.
Creatine Monohydrate
Unmatched ATP regeneration for cognitive and physical output.
L-Theanine
Promoting alpha brain waves for calm, relaxed focus without drowsiness.
Rhodiola Rosea
Combating fatigue and increasing endurance in high-stress environments.
Why We Track What We Track
At BioVector, we do not guess. Your body is a highly complex, interconnected system. Rather than comparing you to generic population averages, we use your Apple Health data to establish your entirely distinct physiological baseline. Deviations from this baseline are the earliest signals of recovery, stress, or adaptation. Here is the compendium of the metrics we analyze and how you should evaluate them.
Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
The time variation between your heartbeats. A direct window into your Autonomic Nervous System.
Above Base: Excellent (Parasympathetic dominance, highly recovered). Below Base: Warning (Stress, illness, alcohol, lack of sleep).
Resting Heart Rate (RHR)
The number of heartbeats per minute at complete rest (usually measured during sleep).
Below Base: Good (High cardiovascular efficiency). Sudden spike: Strong indicator of physical stress or fighting an infection.
Sleep Stages (REM & Deep)
Deep sleep repairs your body (tissue, muscles, immune system). REM sleep repairs your mind (memory, emotions, learning).
Goal: Roughly 20-25% of total sleep each. Low Deep Sleep? Often alcohol or late meals. Low REM? Usually overall sleep deprivation.
VO2 Max (Cardio Fitness)
The maximum amount of oxygen (in ml) your body can process per minute per kilogram of body weight under maximum effort.
Higher is better. One of the strongest known predictors for longevity and overall healthspan.
Wrist Temperature
Your average skin temperature during sleep, measured as a deviation from your baseline.
Remains highly stable. A spike (+1.0°C or more) often indicates an immune response days before you actually feel sick.
Respiratory Rate
How many breaths you take per minute while sleeping.
Should be incredibly constant (e.g., 14.5). If it suddenly spikes, it is a massive warning signal for acute physiological overload.
Blood Oxygen (SpO2)
The percentage of your red blood cells that are carrying oxygen.
Should consistently remain between 95% and 100%. Drops during sleep indicate poor air quality or sleep apnea.
Time in Daylight
The measured time you spend outdoors in natural ambient daylight.
At least 30-60 mins daily is essential to anchor your circadian rhythm (melatonin production) for optimal sleep.
Walking Steadiness & Asymmetry
How balanced and even your walking pattern is (a vital parameter for the musculoskeletal system).
Asymmetry should be extremely low, steadiness high. Deterioration points to muscular imbalances or neurological fatigue.
