AgeCheck Man
The AgeCheck Man's check-up can help you to highlight the effects of ageing, but also help to improve your well-being and increase your physical fitness.
What is AgeCheck Man ?
In men, ageing is accompanied by hormonal and metabolic changes that are important to detect in order to prevent their harmful effects.
The AgeCheck Man panel can help you to identify the effects of ageing, but also help to improve your well-being and increase your physical fitness. The dosage of specific biomarkers explores the balance of elements that contribute to the ageing of your body and can affect your wellbeing.
What can you expect from AgeCheck Man ?
Ageing is often accompanied by discomfort that is reflected in biological variations such as vitamin deficiencies, digestive difficulties, sleep or memory problems, etc. An unbalanced and/or deficient diet and chronic fatigue can be causes of biological dysfunctions and can be accompanied by chronic inflammation, oxidative stress or dysbiosis, alterations that are frequently unknown because they are often silent.
The AgeCheck Man panel consists of nutritional, hormonal and cardiovascular markers likely to reveal a biological imbalance. This information will enable your practitioner to provide you with the best possible support and help you regain your wellbeing and vitality.
Who is the AgeCheck Man panel for?
This Juvenalis profile is intended for men concerned about maintaining their health at an optimal level and preventing any signs of premature ageing.
Juvenalis advises that this test should be carried out from the age of 40 onwards to optimise health and wellness.
Parameters
CRP Ultrasensitive, Bioavailable testosterone, Pregnenolone sulphate, Free T3 , Lipoprotein(a), Vitamin D, Homocysteine, Coenzyme Q10

Why does the AgeCheck for Man panel include these specific test parametres?
AgeCheck Men brings together parameters that enable the evaluation of basic dysfunctions that may be encountered in a patient who wishes to optimise his general health and minimise the effects of ageing. We test for:
- Ultra-sensitive CRP, the elevation of which indicates low-grade inflammation;
- Vitamin D, a significant test due to its multiple implications (osteoarticular/joint health as well as immunity, inflammation, mood, cognition, memory, etc.);
- Free T3, representing the biologically active form of thyroid hormones, the level of which depends closely on the conversion of free T4, itself conditioned by a sufficient quantity of other substances, including vitamin D, present in this profil;
- Coenzyme Q10, a fundamental antioxidant for the body and a protector against free radical attacks;
- Homocysteine, a major player in the methylation processes essential to cellular metabolism, the level of which may reflect a deficiency in vitamins B6, B9 or B12;
- Lipoprotein (a), a cardiovascular risk marker independent of the rest of the cholesterol profile;
- Bioavailable testosterone, a marker for androgenic activity;
- Pregnenolone sulphate, a steroid precursor, involved in the cognitive process and a marker of mitochondrial activity.
