Biohack is an iOS app that scores every meal for longevity. It tracks 23 nutrients linked to healthy aging, provides AI-powered coaching, and helps you eat to live longer. It is made by Buettner Labs LLC.

How does Biohack score meals?

Biohack uses AI to analyze your meal (via photo, text description, or barcode scan) and scores it on a 0 to 10 longevity scale. The score is based on peer-reviewed longevity research and evaluates micronutrients, polyphenols, Omega-3 ratios, and other factors that matter for healthy aging.

What nutrients does Biohack track?

Biohack tracks 23 longevity-relevant nutrients including Omega-3 fatty acids, magnesium, Vitamin D, polyphenols, fiber, zinc, selenium, and more. It goes beyond calories and protein to focus on the micronutrients that scientific research links to healthy aging and disease prevention.

How much does Biohack cost?

Biohack offers a 14-day free trial, no credit card required. After that, Biohack Full Access is $12.99/month or $89.99/year. Founding members get 50% off the yearly plan with code FOUNDING50.

How is Biohack different from calorie counters?

Unlike calorie counters that focus on calories and macros, Biohack scores meals for longevity by tracking 23 micronutrients linked to healthy aging. It provides AI coaching that identifies nutrient gaps and recommends specific foods and supplements based on your personal patterns.

Does Biohack work with intermittent fasting?

Yes, Biohack includes a built-in fasting timer that tracks your eating window and shows when autophagy (your body's cellular repair process) kicks in. It integrates fasting with your nutrition data for a complete longevity picture.

What countries is Biohack available in?

Biohack is currently available on the Apple App Store in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and Germany. More countries will be added in the future.

Vitamins

Vitamin K2

Directs calcium to your bones, not your arteries.

Widespread subclinical deficiency; most Western diets provide very little K2

Why it matters for longevity

Vitamin K2 activates proteins that guide calcium into bones and teeth while keeping it out of soft tissues like arteries. Without adequate K2, calcium can accumulate in blood vessels, contributing to arterial stiffness and cardiovascular disease. The Rotterdam Study found that high vitamin K2 intake was associated with a 57% reduction in death from heart disease over 7-10 years.

How much you need

RDA

No official RDA; adequate intake for vitamin K (K1 + K2) is 120mcg for men, 90mcg for women

Optimal

Longevity researchers suggest 100-200mcg of K2 (MK-7 form) daily, separate from vitamin K1.

Signs you might be low

Easy bruising
Weakening bones despite calcium intake
Dental problems or cavities
Arterial calcification on imaging
