Episode notes
INSIGHT

Omics Reveals A Deeper Health Map

  • Omics means measuring large collections of molecules (genome, transcriptome, proteome, metabolome) to map health comprehensively.
  • Michael Snyder argues deep multi-omic profiling reveals pre-symptomatic disease signals doctors normally miss.
INSIGHT

Early Detection From Deep Profiling

  • Deep molecular profiles detected early disease in asymptomatic people, including early cancer and heart issues.
  • Snyder reports most detected conditions were caught pre-symptomatically and resolved after follow-up.
ADVICE

Give Everyone A Health-Monitoring Watch

  • Use wearable sensors like smartwatches to capture resting heart rate and heart rate variability as continuous health baselines.
  • Snyder recommends providing everyone a smartwatch for monitoring and early-alerting to conditions such as AFib or infections.
