Reading Your Results

Your SuperAge dashboard contains a wealth of information about your biological age and health trends. This guide will help you understand every metric and make the most of your results.

Main Dashboard Overview

When you open SuperAge, you’ll see your primary biological age assessment along with key insights and trends.

Your Biological Age Display

The main number shows your calculated biological age. Here’s how to interpret it:

🎯 Biological Age: 32 years
📅 Chronological Age: 38 years
✨ Difference: 6 years younger

Color coding:

• Green: Biological age is lower than chronological age (great job!)
• Yellow: Biological age matches chronological age (room for improvement)
• Orange: Biological age is slightly higher than chronological age (needs attention)
• Red: Biological age is significantly higher than chronological age (take action)

Confidence Score

SuperAge shows a confidence percentage that indicates how reliable your biological age calculation is:

• 90-100%: Excellent data quality, highly reliable result
• 70-89%: Good data quality, reliable result with minor gaps
• 50-69%: Moderate data quality, generally reliable but could be improved
• Below 50%: Limited data available, result should be interpreted cautiously

Improving Confidence

Confidence scores improve with more consistent health data collection. New users typically see confidence scores increase over the first 2-4 weeks of use.

Detailed Metrics Breakdown

Cardiovascular Health Score

What it measures: Heart rate patterns, variability, and cardiovascular fitness indicators.

Key metrics:

• Resting Heart Rate: Your average resting heart rate (lower is generally better)
• Heart Rate Variability (HRV): Variation between heartbeats (higher often indicates better fitness)
• Recovery Heart Rate: How quickly your heart rate returns to normal after exercise
• Exercise Heart Rate: Your heart rate patterns during physical activity

Interpreting your score:

• Excellent (90-100): Your cardiovascular system shows signs of being younger than your chronological age
• Good (70-89): Healthy cardiovascular patterns for your age
• Fair (50-69): Some areas for cardiovascular improvement
• Needs Improvement (Below 50): Cardiovascular health may be aging faster than optimal

Activity and Fitness Score

What it measures: Your physical activity patterns, exercise consistency, and movement quality.

Key metrics:

• Daily Steps: Average daily step count and walking patterns
• Active Minutes: Time spent in moderate to vigorous activity
• Exercise Frequency: How often you engage in structured exercise
• Movement Consistency: Regular movement throughout the day vs. sedentary periods

Reading the trends:

• Look for consistency rather than perfection
• Weekend activity patterns vs. weekday patterns
• Seasonal variations in activity levels
• Recovery patterns after intense exercise

Sleep Quality Score

What it measures: Sleep duration, quality, consistency, and patterns that affect biological age.

Key metrics:

• Sleep Duration: Average hours of sleep per night
• Sleep Efficiency: Percentage of time in bed actually spent sleeping
• Sleep Consistency: Regularity of bedtime and wake time
• Deep Sleep: Time spent in restorative sleep stages (if available)

Optimal ranges:

• Adults: 7-9 hours per night
• Sleep Efficiency: 85% or higher
• Bedtime Consistency: Within 30 minutes of the same time nightly
• Deep Sleep: 15-20% of total sleep time

Body Composition Insights

What it measures: Weight trends, body mass index, and composition changes over time.

Key indicators:

• Weight Stability: Consistent weight vs. fluctuations
• BMI Trends: Body mass index changes over time
• Body Fat Percentage: If available from compatible scales
• Muscle Mass Trends: Changes in lean body mass

Healthy patterns:

• Stable weight with minimal day-to-day fluctuations
• BMI within healthy range (18.5-24.9 for most adults)
• Gradual positive changes rather than rapid fluctuations

Trend Analysis

Historical View

SuperAge shows your biological age trends over different time periods:

7-Day View: Daily fluctuations and short-term patterns

• Useful for seeing immediate impacts of lifestyle changes
• May show higher variability due to daily factors

30-Day View: Monthly trends and patterns

• Better representation of true biological age changes
• Smooths out daily variations

90-Day View: Quarterly trends and long-term changes

• Most reliable indicator of real biological age improvements
• Shows the impact of sustained lifestyle changes

1-Year View: Annual patterns and seasonal effects

• Long-term health trajectory
• Seasonal variations in activity, sleep, or health

Understanding Fluctuations

Normal daily variations (±1-2 years):

• Sleep quality variations
• Stress levels
• Activity intensity changes
• Data collection gaps

Concerning patterns:

• Consistent upward trend over weeks
• Sudden large jumps in biological age
• Consistently poor confidence scores

Positive patterns:

• Gradual downward trend over months
• Improved consistency in metrics
• Higher confidence scores over time

Insights and Recommendations

Personalized Insights

SuperAge provides customized insights based on your data patterns:

Performance Insights:

Action Items

Based on your data, SuperAge suggests specific actions:

Quick Wins (can implement today):

• Go to bed 30 minutes earlier
• Take a 10-minute walk after meals
• Practice 5 minutes of deep breathing

Short-term Goals (1-4 weeks):

• Increase daily steps by 1,000
• Establish consistent sleep schedule
• Add 2 strength training sessions per week

Long-term Targets (1-6 months):

• Reduce biological age by 1-2 years
• Improve cardiovascular health score by 20%
• Achieve 85%+ sleep efficiency consistently

Red Flags to Watch For

Data Quality Issues

• Confidence score consistently below 50%
• Large gaps in health data collection
• Inconsistent device usage

Health Concerns

• Biological age increasing rapidly without explanation
• Significant decline in multiple health metrics
• Unusual patterns in heart rate or sleep data

Medical Consultation

While SuperAge provides valuable health insights, it’s not a replacement for medical advice. Consult healthcare professionals for concerning trends or significant health changes.
