Longevity is not a one-off test or a set of quick recommendations. In practice, it means long-term healthcare based on your current health, combining prevention, movement, nutrition, sleep and recovery.

Each of these areas affects the others. Too little sleep can impair recovery and reduce the motivation to exercise. An inappropriate training load can lead to overuse, while general nutrition advice may not suit your health or daily routine. That is why it makes sense to address these areas together.

Start with your current health

A meaningful plan begins with a medical assessment. A detailed medical history and physical examination are complemented by blood pressure measurement, an ECG and an ABI test, which provides an indicative assessment of blood flow in the arteries of the lower limbs. The doctor also evaluates blood and urine tests covering the blood count, immunity, inflammation, glucose and lipid metabolism, liver and kidney function, thyroid function, vitamins, iron and trace elements. The panel also includes ApoB and Lp(a), markers of cardiovascular risk.

Samples are taken while fasting, ideally in the morning, one to two days before the examination. The same laboratory panel is included in both the three-month and six-month options and is covered by the programme price.

The outcome should not be a list of restrictions. What matters more is a clear explanation of the connections and a small number of practical steps suited to the person’s health and circumstances.

Movement as regular, appropriate physical activity

A movement assessment shows how a person uses stability, mobility and fundamental movement patterns. It helps identify weak or overloaded areas and allows exercise to be adapted so that it is safe and purposeful.

Long-term benefits rarely come from a short period of maximum effort. They come from consistency. A personalised plan may combine compensatory exercise, strength work, mobility training and a level of physical activity that reflects everyday life or sporting goals.

Nutrition tailored to the individual

Nutritional care should reflect health status, laboratory results, physical activity, daily routine and personal preferences. The aim is not a perfect meal plan for a few weeks, but changes that remain manageable alongside work, travel and family life.

Ing. Šárka Hodslavská, DiS., is a registered nutritional therapist with professional training in clinical nutrition and dietetics. Her areas of focus include personalised nutrition plans, metabolic health, longevity and sports nutrition. In the MY LONGEVITY without trends programme, she helps translate each client’s results and goals into a practical approach to eating.

Sleep and biological rhythms

Sleep affects recovery, energy and the ability to cope with physical and mental demands. Assessing it therefore involves more than counting hours. Regularity, timing, the sleeping environment, daylight exposure, work patterns and pre-sleep habits all matter.

Changes are best introduced gradually while monitoring their effect on daytime functioning. The practical goal is a routine that respects biological rhythms and is also compatible with work and personal life.

Why continuity matters

Recommendations alone are often not enough. Regular consultations make it possible to assess what is working, respond to changes in health or daily routine, and adjust the plan before motivation is lost. This continuity is what distinguishes long-term care from a one-off examination.

How to get started

1) Map your current health and risk factors
2) Choose one to three realistic goals
3) Address movement, nutrition and sleep as interconnected areas
4) Monitor your results and adjust the plan over time
5) If you have health concerns, discuss changes with your doctor

The MY LONGEVITY without trends programme at MY CLINIC combines an initial medical examination with movement, nutrition and sleep care in a three-month or six-month format.
