At 48, Troy wasn’t just working at Opt Health—he was also struggling with low energy, extra weight, and slow recovery. His testosterone was low, so hitting the gym felt harder than it should have.

With the guidance of , Troy started TRT and peptide therapy. The changes were powerful:

✔️ 22 pounds of fat lost
✔️ Testosterone boosted from 325 ➝ 975
✔️ Old injuries no longer holding him back

Now, Troy’s training for his first half marathon this September in Boulder, CO...go Troy!

Whole grains, fruits, veggies = “healthy,” right? 🤔
Not always.
Some plant foods contain anti-nutrients (like oxalates, lectins, and gluten) that can mess with nutrient absorption, hormone balance, and even cause inflammation in certain people. Add pesticides to the mix, and it’s no wonder your body might be saying no thanks.

✨ At Opt, we help you sort through your history, symptoms, and diet to match what you eat with how your body functions best. Because “healthy” isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s personalized.

If you could measure just one biomarker for longevity, what would it be? 🤔 says: insulin. 🩸

Chronically high insulin is linked to fatigue, weight gain, inflammation, and higher risk for conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and even accelerated aging.

➡️At Opt Health, we help you track and optimize the numbers that matter most for longevity.

😴 Feeling off but not sure why? Your testosterone might be the missing link.

Longevity isn’t only physical — it’s mental too 🧠 As Dr. Walker says, having a mental ‘six-pack’ is key to long-term health. From overcoming past trauma to cultivating safety, trust, and resilience, our doctors take all aspects of your health into account.

What are you doing to build your mental six-pack?⬇️

Dr. Walker’s recent VO2 max test clocked in at 60.1 mL/kg/min — placing him in the top 1% for men his age. 🏆

❓What is VO2 max?
It’s the gold-standard measure of cardiorespiratory fitness: how much oxygen your body can take in, transport, and use during intense exercise.

🏃‍♀️Why it matters:
•A higher VO₂ max means more oxygen delivery to your muscles, better performance, and quicker recovery.

•It’s strongly linked to longevity — research shows people with high VO2 max have a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality.

•The higher your VO2max, the better reserve you have to maintain whole-body function. For instance, you will have more reserve for immunity, cognition, and healing.

💡Bottom line: VO₂ max testing isn’t just for elite athletes — it’s for anyone who wants to understand their body, train smarter, and protect their long-term health.

🚨 Heard of a DEXA scan yet? If you’re working with Opt Health docs, you have 😉
Think of it as a speedy (10 min!) full-body check-in that tells us way more than a scale ever could. It’s the gold standard for seeing what’s really going on inside your body—bones, fat, and muscle.

Here’s the scoop from ’s own recent scan 👇

1️⃣ Bone Strength (BMD)
We want your bones solid—especially in your spine + hips. This is how we see your risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis. On slide 3, Dr. Walker’s scan shows strong numbers there (ribs are naturally a little softer, so don’t panic). The T score is important to know — you’ll want it >1.
2️⃣ Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT)
Slide 4 shows the amount of fat you have around your organs inside your belly and it is inextricably related to metabolic disease. Under 1 lb is the goal. Dr. Walker? 311 grams. Crushing it.
3️⃣ Total Body Fat % (TBF)
Yes, we track this, but it’s not just about the mirror. Men: we aim for 8–15%. Women: 15–25%. Check out Dr. Walker’s results on slide 4.
4️⃣ Lean Muscle Mass (ALMI)
Think strong arms + legs. Sweet spot = 8–10. Dr. Walker on slide 5? 9.25. 💪

The best part? 👉 You don’t have to figure this all out alone.
Our docs do the behind-the-scenes work—reading the data, catching the nuances, and turning it into real-world game plans for your health.

🪧If you haven’t done a DEXA scan yet, this is your sign.
