See how your body is functioning compared to others your age.

Metabolic Age (from Nightingale Health’s blood analysis technology) is a simple, science-backed number that shows how old your body appears based on its metabolic health, rather than just the years you’ve been alive (your chronological age). It is calculated from a single blood sample using advanced nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) metabolomics. The test measures a wide range of biomarkers related to lipids, fatty acids, amino acids, sugar metabolism, inflammation, and other metabolic pathways. These are compared against large reference populations of people of the same age and sex (drawing data from hundreds of thousands of individuals and long-term follow-up studies).

Unlike traditional blood tests that look at isolated values, Metabolic Age summarises complex information into an easy-to-understand figure. It highlights the impact of lifestyle on biological aging and future risk of chronic conditions (such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, liver and kidney issues). Because it focuses on modifiable factors rather than genetics, it can motivate positive changes and serve as a clear progress tracker over time.

The Nightingale Metabolic Age differs from a typical comprehensive blood panel in technology, scope, purpose, and the type of insights it delivers. In short, Nightingale’s Metabolic Age is a specialised metabolomics-based tool focused on how your metabolism is aging and your long-term chronic disease risk, whereas a comprehensive blood panel is a broader clinical toolkit for assessing current physiological status and organ health. If you haven’t screened yet, start with the Comprehensive panel. If you want insights into your Metabolic Age, consider the Metabolic Age test. Both tests can be done together for deeper insights into your overall health status.

Bring it along. Our doctors will review it, though a Metabolic Age score needs its specific panel of markers to calculate.

Your doctor walks you through what's driving the score and what, if anything, is worth acting on. It’s a risk score, not a diagnosis, so one reading is treated as a starting point, not a verdict.

Direct booking: $400. Screen or panel price after starting with the $20 doctor consultation: $380. Add-on price for someone who has purchased the Comprehensive Health Screen: $280.
