How to get the most out of your InsideTracker membership

What are the options to join InsideTracker?

There are three ways to join, and you can review the membership options here.

The best option for you will depend on whether:

  • You're looking for an analysis of the blood test results you already have. (Choose "Membership.")
  • You want a baseline blood test + analysis. (Choose "Foundation + Membership.") 
  • You seek a full, comprehensive blood test + analysis. (Choose "Ultimate + Membership.") 

Here’s a deeper breakdown of the three membership options: 

1. InsideTracker Membership: With the basic membership option, you can get started by uploading the DNA and blood results you already have. You can also sync your fitness tracker and feed in other personal health data. If you are located in the United States or Canada, you can buy additional tests through us when you’re ready to update your analysis. Your InsideTracker Membership gives you access to low-cost testing you can use at any time.

2. Foundation + Membership: This option is right for you if you’re looking for a lower-cost test that focuses on four key areas: heart health, brain, gut, and immune system. In addition to the blood test, this option includes all the benefits of InsideTracker Membership. 

3.
Ultimate + Membership: If you’re seeking a full, comprehensive blood test across all of your body’s systems, this plan is right for you. Ultimate + Membership includes all the benefits of InsideTracker Membership, and the blood test covers all 10 of your healthspan categories.  

What are the add-ons?

When you check out with a blood test, you can choose from multiple add-ons.  

  • Estradiol + Progesterone (Available with the purchase of a blood test): Estradiol and progesterone are often thought of as female hormones, but they play important roles for both men and women. They’re responsible for bone, brain, and reproductive health, body composition, mood, and more. Add these two markers at checkout for a test, analysis, and personalized recommendations.

  • DNA Kit (US only): Your DNA is your body’s roadmap. It works with your blood results to show you how your genes affect your health right now. With a DNA Kit, you’ll get a report on your genetic predispositions for 38 wellness traits. It will help you understand how your DNA influences your health—and what you can do about it. 

  • InnerAge (Available with the purchase of a blood test): Your InnerAge shows you how you’re aging on the inside. With InnerAge, you’ll receive your biological age and recommendations to improve the biomarkers that are making you age faster. It’s a great motivational tool: InsideTracker Members who purchase DNA improve more biomarkers than those who don’t.

How do I sync my fitness tracker to the app?

Once you sync your fitness tracker (Apple Health, Oura, Garmin, etc.), InsideTracker becomes a hub for every level of health data—from the genes you were born with to the workout you did this morning.

How does InsideTracker help me reach my goals?

Reaching your health goals requires motivation to start, consistency to follow through, and accountability to stay on track. InsideTracker’s app is with you each step of the way.

Here are a few examples:

  1. InsideTracker provides access to your body’s data along with thorough analysis. It reveals exactly which biomarkers you need to improve. 

  2. The platform delivers easy-to-follow recommendations that tell you precisely what to do to reach your health goals. By eliminating the guesswork from your health routine, you can implement the right habits faster. 

  3. Your Action Plan lets you choose from recommendations that span nutrition, exercise, supplements, and lifestyle habits, so you can find the one that fits your lifestyle best

  4. InsideTracker sorts your recommendations in order of greatest impact for your body. Actions with the highest “impact score” can improve your markers most efficiently to help you quickly meet your goals.

  5. InsideTracker delivers daily ProTips that are hyper-personalized, timely, and—most importantly—actionable. When you sync your fitness tracker to the InsideTracker app, you get real-time feedback on improving your sleep, eating for workout recovery, and hydrating based on your exertion. 
     
  6. The InsideTracker Insiders Facebook Group is open to members for community support. The group is bound by the common goal of achieving optimal health and wellness. It provides a safe, judgment-free environment for members to share experiences, seek advice, and celebrate successes along their health journeys.

How does InsideTracker make health recommendations?

With your InsideTracker Membership, you’ll receive a full health analysis that includes science-backed recommendations for nutrition, supplements, exercise, and lifestyle improvement. These are curated to improve the areas of your health where you need it most.

Each recommendation is based on your blood biomarker levels, healthspan category scores, and current habits. It has passed an extensive review process by the InsideTracker science team for its ability to improve health. 

  • The recommendations you see are just as important as those you don’t see. If a specific action isn’t relevant for you, we won’t waste your time with it.
  • We encourage you to share your results with your healthcare provider, and we make it easy to do so from the app or your web browser.
