Tracking Biometric Markers Can Improve Your Health with Miray Tayfun
2022-01-27
At least at one point in our lives, we will all experience body pains and headaches. However, did you know that these may be signs of a vitamin deficiency? Around 60-70% of Americans are calcium and magnesium deficient. We may be vitamin deficient and not even notice it! That's why it's vital to be tracking biometric markers.
Tracking biometric markers and our nutrient levels can be a challenge because of the need to go to clinics regularly for blood tests. Fortunately, there’s a new technology that can help you check your biometric markers in the safety and comfort of your own home.
In this episode, Miray Tayfun discusses how Vivoo can track biometric markers at home. Vivoo can monitor your hydration, liver and kidney functions, Vitamin C, magnesium, and more.
Don’t wait until symptoms start. Stay on top of your health with constant awareness!
If you want to learn more about tracking biometric markers, then this episode is for you!

Episode Highlights [04:02] How Miray Started Vivoo- Miray is knowledgeable in bioengineering and epigenetics. Her expertise is on the Internet of Things and biosensors.
- Vivoo means being alive in Spanish.
- It is a home diagnostics tool that helps in tracking biometric markers through urine.
- The application can measure hydration, liver and kidney functions, urinary tract infections, and ketones.
- When you are aware of your health statistics, it’s easier to take action.
- If you’re tracking biometric markers regularly, you’ll learn about their patterns and changes.
- Miray shares that Vivoo is also adding new metrics like calcium, vitamin C, magnesium, salt consumption, and free radicals.
- Oxidative stress is involved in cell damage and diseases like cancer.
- Free radicals can lead to oxidative stress. They can be found in food, objects, and even cosmetics.
- Oxidative stress is a byproduct of lipid peroxidation and malondialdehyde (MDA).
- Many athletes use Vivoo to track their status before and after runs.
- Vivoo can help people become more proactive in their health and understand their bodies’ needs better.
- On average, 70% of Americans are calcium deficient and 60% are magnesium deficient.
- When Vivoo uses colourimetric tests, speific molecules activate and change colours depending on the level of the biometric being measured.
- People's health issues can be addressed by simply taking the right supplements and vitamins.
- For example, magnesium can help in 600 enzymatic reactions and be a treatment for depression.
- Medicine often cures only the symptoms, not the disease.
- While medicines and treatments can address your symptoms, they won't treat vitamin deficiencies that might cause more significant problems for your body in the future.
- Medical trends point to more home diagnostic tools to help people live longer and healthier.
- Diabetes and obesity threatens the life expectancy of younger generations.
- Looking for investors is just similar to looking for customers. You contact leads, pitch your sales, and hope to get funding.
- It also requires mental toughness and optimism despite uncertainties.
- When you believe in negative thinking, it then becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
- Take note that Vivoo only helps gauge biometric levels and you can make decisions based on them.
- Many in the biohacking community want nutrient information. Miray's team added metrics for calcium, Vitamin C, magnesium, and salts.
- Vivoo also explains the importance of tracking biometric markers.
- We need supplementation because our food may not be in its prime condition. For example, Vitamin C in vegetables can oxidate to 90%.
- Getting good food nowadays has become difficult due to processing, packaging, pesticides, and modifications.
- Miray shares that Vivoo does not check one’s overall health. When tracking liver functions, it only measures bilirubin which can check liver damage and cirrhosis.
- The application also checks for proteins related to kidney function.
- Remember that even if you look healthy on the outside, it doesn’t mean you’re healthy.
“... I want to know this for my own health, and my family's health so I can track everybody's going.”
“And people like us — sometimes I see hesitancy and people like, why would I pee on a stick unhealthy? But like 70% of Americans are calcium deficient and absorption reduces 30% by age.”
“ …if I had done an ultrasound, even of his stomach — if we would have seen what was going on under the hood, we would have been able to stop the aneurysm happening in his aorta, and we would have been able to fix them. That's just so sad that I didn't have something that could have scanned him and seen that, and fixed that before it became a deadly problem.”
“...we can have genetic disorders, environmentally-caused problems, etc. But our body has actually tools to overcome it most of the times, but they don't allow our bodies to basically find those tools and help itself. They just try to cure the symptom.”
“...this is exciting, because then we will have much more control. And we will be able to live longer and age better and have a healthier [life].”
"And I realised that my biggest weakness is when there's uncertainty, there's two ways. You can be either optimistic, believe in yourself and your dreams, and keep going, or you can go down and save."
“It's okay for you to cost a little bit, in my opinion. It's okay for you to want to live your life and to have a good retirement and some nice times before you depart this world. And it's worth fighting for.”
