What the AgE code is
Your book, Busting the Code to Ageing, set out a simple clinical truth. Ageing is driven less by rising inflammation and more by a decline in your body's own anti-inflammatory capacity. The AgE Code is where that thinking becomes a structured pathway, bringing medical optimisation and longevity medicine together under one clinically governed programme, rather than treating them as separate services.
We start with data, not guesswork. Every patient begins with the Discovery Phase, then moves through three pillars that systematically resolve the underlying biological barriers to optimal health, your gut, your hormones, and your cellular energy.
Discovery Phase
Before Any Pillar Begins
MAP Health
Your essential diagnostics phase. We look at your inflammatory, metabolic, and nutritional markers, apply continuous glucose monitoring to see how your body actually responds to food, and use epigenetic testing to understand what is happening at a cellular level. From here, we design your personalised route through the three pillars.
Includes
● Comprehensive bloods ● Epigenetic testing ● Inflammation markers ● 14 day CGM
No biological age panel is included in this phase.
Then, Three Pillars
Each one building on the last.
Pillar One
The Foundation Layer
Digestion
Your gut is the gateway to everything else. We address this first, so the hormonal and cellular work that follows is properly absorbed.
How we test
GI-MAP stool analysis or gut health dry blood spot
How we resolve it
Targeted, high quality gut supportive supplementation
Pillar Two
The Integration Layer
Endocrine Health
Hormonal decline and metabolic dysfunction are central drivers of ageing. Reduced inflammation from Pillar One allows for far more precise regulation.
How we test
The DUTCH complete test
How we resolve it
Personalised bioidentical hormone therapy where indicated
Pillar Three
The Vitality Layer
Mitochondrial Health
Mitochondria are your cells' powerhouses. This final pillar restores cellular energy, vitality, and membrane health.
How we test
Follow up blood panel and cellular health markers
How we resolve it
High dose omega-3 therapy to restore omega-6:omega-3 ratio
The Approach
A protocol,
not a prescription.
Longevity is not a single visit. It is a sequence, measured, adjusted and paced across years. The aim is not to chase youth, but to buy back healthy time.
I.
Measure
Deep biomarker work, inflammation, hormones, metabolic markers, beyond normal ranges.
II.
Interpret
Data read against your history, symptoms and goals, not a template.
III.
Sequence
A plan paced across quarters and years, with review points built in.
