Convenient assessment, precision results
Our list of tests has been curated by a panel of cross-specialty physicians to provide you a relevant and affordable view of your brain health. Your biomarkers are the basis on which we create a tailored health plan that addresses the specific risk factors you may have.
Genetics
Learn your APOE genotype to understand your genetic risk and where to focus your efforts. Upload your 23andMe data to identify XX+ other genetic risk factors for Alzheimer's.
Blood biomarkers
Get 30+ curated blood biomarkers most critical to brain health to identify the highest impact areas for improvement. Follow up on abnormal results with targeted tests to identify the exact factors to focus on.
Cognitive tests
Understand the current function of your brain and pinpoint specific ways in which you can improve your cognition. See the way your efforts improve your brain, not just as numbers on a page, but as boosts in performance.
Want to learn your risk status right away?
We know that all these tests take time and effort. If you're looking for the 5 minute version to help you get a sense of your brain health and performance, we've got just the thing.
Design the protocol that's right for you
Alzheimer's prevention may sound like a new field, but researchers have been studying ways to prevent the disease for years. We've worked with the leading doctors and scientists in the field to gather the most promising things you can do starting today to reduce your risk.
140+ science-backed interventions at your fingertips
These aren't tidbits we heard from our well-intentioned neighbor. Our list draws on the expertise of leading figures in brain health research and treatment, many of whom use the very same interventions we share in the library. We share the science of how each intervention works in plain English, and link to studies that demonstrate the benefits.
Conveniently organized to guide your browsing
We've built a library, not a list. To help you triage through the available interventions, you can filter based on what's most important for you: impact, effort, time, cost, and others.
Highlighting what's most important for you
After all, there's a reason you're getting so many tests. Your results feed into our powerful personalization engine which identifies the interventions that address your risk factors and have the biggest influence on your brain health.
Guided by our expert coaches
We know that all the tests and interventions can be overwhelming. That's why our health coaches are trained on the very latest in brain health. Each membership comes with a 30-minute session to help guide you through your personalized strategy and support you through your journey. Further sessions are always available, as is our in-house AI whiz kid, BrainGPT.
You're in charge
Our recommendations are just that. You decide how BetterBrain fits into your life, not the other way around. Use our library to make informed decisions and create a tailored protocol that fits your lifestyle.
Available to anyone, anytime
We strongly believe that everyone can and should benefit from our library. Although personalized recommendations are only available to our members, access to the library is free and highly encouraged.
Partnership in prevention
Delaying the onset of cognitive decline by five years reduces your chances of getting the disease by 50%. Your personal protocol is your blueprint to brain enhancement and dementia prevention, and BetterBrain is there to support you every step of the journey.
We curated a marketplace, just for you
When we started our own brain health journeys, we had to parse through thousands of different products and services to find the ones that we liked and actually worked. We've supplemented our hours of research with recommendations from health authorities, leading clinicians, and third party reviewers to put together a marketplace of handpicked solutions that we believe in.
Insights into the latest therapeutics
The brain health landscape is quickly growing, and it's important to stay up to speed. Whether the FDA approves a better test or we hear about a clinical trial that might be relevant to you, we are constantly scanning new developments to make sure you can make use of the cutting edge of brain science
A science-based perspective on supplements
Unlike therapeutics, supplements don't go through any regulatory review. Since they don't have to undergo testing for efficacy or quality, there's many products that seriously overstate their health benefits. Despite this, we're big believers in supplements. There are mountains of peer-reviewed evidence that specific supplements can boost your brain health. We share this evidence with you, and vet all the manufacturers we work with to make sure you receive only the highest quality supplements.
(Also) available to anyone, anytime
Just as with the brain health library, we think that most anyone interested in brain health can benefit from our marketplace, but as a member, you save 20% off the listed prices.
FAQs
Are Alzheimer's disease and dementia preventable?
keyboard_arrow_right
Although there is no cure for dementia yet, disease progression can be slowed and in some cases completely avoided. Research has shown that at least 40% (likely higher) of dementias can be prevented, and cognitive decline can always be slowed down. The key is to start early, but it's never too late.
I get lab tests every year at my annual physical. How is this different?
keyboard_arrow_right
BetterBrain's battery of tests go far beyond the tests your PCP asks you for each year. Our panel of tests has been carefully assembled and vetted by leading physicians to provide a comprehensive view of your brain health. Each one of your tests is reviewed by a physician, and the insights you receive come from some of the world's leading experts in brain health.
How soon after joining can I get tested?
keyboard_arrow_right
You should be able to get tested within a few days. As soon as you're signed up, you can walk into any Labcorp near you or schedule a mobile phlebotomy visit so you don't have to leave your home.
How long after testing will I get my results?
keyboard_arrow_right
Your bloodwork will typically be available within 3 days of your lab visit. Genetic testing may take slightly longer - you should expect your results within 1-2 weeks of sending your saliva sample.
Why do you ask about specific symptoms when I order the test?
keyboard_arrow_right
Our testing battery is intended to help you understand your brain health, not diagnose any acute illness. If you are experiencing any of the listed symptoms, you may require immediate medical attention. Even if you are not experiencing a severe illness, such symptoms may influence your test results that is not reflective of your true baseline.
Who will have access to my results?
keyboard_arrow_right
We restrict access to results on a need-to-know basis. Namely your results are available to you, the laboratory, and your health coach if you are receiving coaching.
Please note that in some cases, clinicians and laboratories must report specific test results to state health authorities for disease tracking and prevalence.

Our intervention library is the world's most exhaustive collection of evidence-based strategies to improve your brain health. All the information in the library is rooted in science, and we share the body of evidence supporting each intervention with you - both as a citation to a peer-reviewed studies from reputable science journals (which often restricts access to academic or paid users) and to free online articles that synthesize the results where possible.
The library was put together by our brain health experts and validated by a cross-specialty group of physicians, including global leaders in Alzheimer's prevention like ______. We are constantly on the lookout for new studies to continually update the library and make sure the interventions you choose are based in the latest evidence.

How do I select the interventions that are right for me?
keyboard_arrow_right
There's three steps to tailoring your health protocol. First, our powerful personalization engine ingests data from your risk assessment, bloodwork, genetics, and cognitive tests to identify your highest risk areas and recommend interventions that best address those areas.
Second, a brain health expert meets with you 1-on-1 to understand your goals and lifestyle while guiding you through the specifics of different interventions. The goal of the coaching session is to help you zero in on the interventions that make the most sense for you.
Third (and most importantly), you stay in charge of your protocol. At any point in your brain health journey, you can decide what is and isn't right for you, and adapt your protocol to match your needs.
