Biological Performance Metric

Meaning

A Biological Performance Metric is a quantifiable, objective measure of a specific physiological function or biological process that directly correlates with an individual’s healthspan, functional capacity, and overall vitality. Unlike simple biomarkers of disease, these metrics assess the rate and quality of biological function, providing a snapshot of the body’s true operational state. Examples include measures of heart rate variability, cellular energy production rates, hormonal clearance rates, or specific genomic stability markers. Monitoring these metrics allows for precise, personalized clinical adjustments to optimize health outcomes.
