Your blood already knows. Learn to read it.
A plain-language guide to your Metabolic Code: 70+ biomarkers, five triads, and the role AI plays in helping your care team see the pattern.
From a blood draw to a plan that adapts
MIORA turns one set of labs into a map of how your body is working. Your provider reads it with you, in the context of how you actually feel.
Get clear on you
Comprehensive bloodwork and a symptom report become your Metabolic Code.
Build your plan
Your provider reviews results against your history and goals.
Ongoing support
Labs and plan updates keep pace as your body changes.
Short lessons, no jargon
What a biomarker is
A measurable signal in your blood, like glucose or vitamin D, that reflects how a system is working.
3 minNormal versus optimal
A lab’s normal range flags disease. An optimal range asks how well you could be doing.
4 minWhy patterns beat single numbers
Markers move together. Reading them as triads shows causes, not only symptoms.
5 minWhere AI helps, and where it stops
What the model does with 70+ markers, and what stays with your provider.

Metabolic Code
MIORA’s analysis of 70+ biomarkers across five triads, read alongside your symptom report.
Triad
A group of related markers that are read together, because one number alone rarely explains how you feel.
Optimal range
A narrower target than the standard lab range, set around how well you function rather than whether you have a disease.
Care plan
The steps you and your provider agree on, based on your results, history, and goals. You can ask what each step is for and how it will be measured.
AI reads the pattern. People make the decision.
What AI does
- Compares 70+ markers at once
- Spots combinations a single result hides
- Tracks how your numbers change between visits
What your provider does
- Weighs results against how you feel
- Decides on every treatment
- Explains the why, and answers your questions
What the AI does is described in MIORA’s own words. See what the evidence supports for how well each claim has been tested.
When AI gets it wrong
- It can miss a real problem, or flag one that is not there
- Your provider checks every flag against how you feel
- You can ask for a second look at any result
What the evidence supports
Not every test or treatment has the same research behind it. Here is how we label what you will read about.
Glucose and cholesterol tests
Well establishedFasting glucose is a standard test for diabetes, and LDL cholesterol is a standard guide to heart disease risk and treatment.
Treating vitamin D deficiency
Well establishedCorrecting a true deficiency is standard care.
Raising vitamin D above the normal range
Mixed or limitedIn a trial of more than 25,000 adults without cancer or heart disease, daily vitamin D did not lower the rate of cancer or major heart events.
Inflammation markers such as hs‑CRP
Mixed or limitedA 2003 AHA and CDC statement treated hs-CRP as a marker of heart risk, most useful for people at intermediate risk. It did not recommend testing everyone.
Hormone therapy when levels are in the normal range
Mixed or limitedFor men, the Endocrine Society recommends testosterone therapy only when symptoms and consistently low levels both appear, and advises against routine screening.
Scoring 70+ markers as one pattern
Emerging or unprovenThe Metabolic Code is MIORA’s own framework. We found no independent, peer-reviewed validation of it. Ask MIORA for any published evidence.

Questions to ask before you book
- What will this cost today, and over a year?
- Which of these tests will change my care?
- What does the research say about each treatment you suggest?
- How will we know if it is working, and when do we stop?
- Will my primary doctor see my results?
- Which of these steps can I do without paying for a program?
- Who can see my results, and how long are they kept?
- Can I opt out of AI analysis, or have my data deleted?
- Were the optimal ranges built from people like me (age, sex, background)?
- Who do I contact if I disagree with a result?
