Key Blood Biomarkers for Longevity
Discover the six most important blood markers that predict exceptional longevity and are supported by scientific research.
Total Cholesterol
Higher levels correlate with increased likelihood of reaching 100 years, with optimal levels between 3.40–5.18 mmol/L.
Research Studies
Glucose
Lower fasting glucose levels are strongly associated with longevity, as elevated glucose accelerates aging.
Research Studies
Creatinine
Lower serum creatinine predicts exceptional longevity and indicates better kidney function.
Research Studies
Uric Acid
Moderate levels show complex effects on longevity, with lower levels correlating with human longevity.
Research Studies
Iron
Higher iron levels and lower iron-binding capacity are associated with increased longevity.
Research Studies
Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT)
Lower GGT levels correlate with reduced mortality and better liver function.
