Your Executive Health Assessment Includes
Day 1: Diagnostic Visit (2 Hours)
Your deep dive begins here. In just two hours, we’ll gather an unparalleled snapshot of your current health—inside and out. From advanced biomarker testing to fitness, heart, and stress diagnostics, Day 1 uncovers the data behind your performance and longevity.
SALT Longevity Health Lab Panel (100+ Biomarkers)
Most executive physicals stop at basic labs. Ours goes much deeper — over 100 advanced biomarkers that reveal risks years before symptoms appear. This panel provides one of the most comprehensive health screenings available anywhere.
CBC, CMP w (FIB-4), OmegaCheck, Urinalysis Complete, T3 Free, T4 Free, TSA, Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies, Testosterone Free – Total, and SHBG, Estradiol Ultrasensitive, PSA Total and Free, Vit B12, Vit D, Antinuclear Antibodies (ANA) Screen – Pattern – and Titer, Rheumatoid Factor, Uric Acid, Insulin, Zinc, Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC), Ferritin, Iron % Saturation, Homocysteine, Methylmalonic Acid (MMA), Albumin (Microalbumin) Urine w/o Creatinine, Lipase Magnesium, DHEA Sulfate, Cardio IQ Panel (Cholesterol Total, HDL, Triglycerides, Non-HDL and Calculated Components, Lipoprotein Fractionation, Ion Mobility, Apolipoprotein B, Lipoprotein, hs-CRP, Lp-PLA2 Activity)
Carotid Intima-Media Thickness (CIMT) Scan
Heart disease is the #1 threat to executives, often with no warning signs until it’s too late. CIMT detects early arterial changes before symptoms or major plaque buildup occur.
Longevity Health Lab tests include
Your real risk for heart attack or stroke, long before traditional tests would flag concern. It shows whether your arteries are aging faster than you are — and if your prevention plan is working.
Fitness Evaluation with HRV, and ANS testing
Executives often push their bodies to the limit without knowing how well they can truly perform. This treadmill-based evaluation measures cardiovascular capacity, stress resilience, and recovery — revealing whether your body is keeping pace with the demands of leadership or silently falling behind.
What’s measured?
Treadmill Stress Test— (Cardiorespiratory Fitness) Reveals your true energy capacity and longevity potential. Know if your body can sustain the demands of leadership — and how to increase stamina and endurance.
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) — Measures resilience and recovery. See if you’re thriving under pressure or silently burning out, and learn how to build stress capacity.
Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) Balance — Exposes hidden stress patterns. Understand how your body handles fight-or-flight vs. rest-and-repair, and uncover why sleep, focus, or energy may be suffering.
Personalized Physical Exam
A tailored head-to-toe exam, customized to your age, gender, and health history.
Go beyond a routine physical by identifying hidden issues that may affect energy, focus, and long-term health. Provides baseline measures to compare against advanced diagnostics for a truly individualized plan.
What’s included
Electrocardiogram (EKG) — A quick, painless test that records the electrical signals in your heart.
- Your Personalized Results Show: Whether your heart rhythm and electrical activity are normal or if early intervention may be needed — critical for executives under constant stress.
Heart & Lung X-Ray — A fast, non-invasive screening to evaluate heart size and lung health.
- Your Personalized Results Show: Early signs of heart enlargement, lung disease, or other abnormalities that could silently affect performance and longevity.
Day 2: Root-Cause Assessment & Action Plan (Half Day)
On Day 2, we turn insights into action. You’ll meet with our medical and nutrition team to interpret your results, uncover root causes, and build a clear, personalized roadmap to optimize your health, energy, and resilience.
