Beyond the scale — understand your metabolic baseline.
BMI Calculator
Body Mass Index — a quick screen, though context matters. We'll explain what yours means.
BMI is a starting point, not the full story.Dr. Best looks at body composition, metabolic markers, and your goals together — not a number in isolation.
A stronger predictor of cardiometabolic risk than BMI. General rule: your waist should be less than half your height.
Waist size is driven by visceral fat — the metabolically active kind.Nutritional biochemistry and hormone optimization are two of the most effective levers for changing it.
U.S. Navy tape-measure method — no scale required. Uses neck, waist, and hip (women only) circumferences.

Body composition matters more than weight.Hormone optimization and targeted exercise protocols can shift your ratio significantly — without crash dieting.
Estimated weight loss ranges based on clinical trial data for GLP-1 medications. Individual results vary based on adherence, diet, and exercise.
Illustrative Trial-Based Estimate (12–18 months)
GLP-1s work best with physician oversight, not a subscription box.Dr. Best manages your protocol alongside hormone optimization and nutrition — not just the prescription.
Hormone imbalance shows up as fatigue, weight gain, mood changes, and loss of drive — often years before labs look "abnormal."
Male Hormone Symptom Checklist
A 10-question educational symptom checklist for common signs of testosterone decline. This is an informational tool developed by Clarity Health — not a validated clinical instrument. Answer Yes or No based on your experience over the past few months.
A positive ADAM screen warrants a full hormone panel.Dr. Best evaluates total and free testosterone, SHBG, LH, FSH, and estradiol — not just a single number.
An 11-item educational symptom assessment covering common signs of hormonal change in women. Rate each symptom by how much it has affected you. This is an informational tool developed by Clarity Health — not a validated clinical instrument.
Hormone therapy has come a long way — and the evidence strongly supports it for the right patient.Dr. Best takes a personalized, bioidentical approach to female hormone optimization.
Poor sleep accelerates aging, disrupts hormones, and undermines every other health effort you make.
Daytime Sleepiness Questionnaire
How likely are you to doze off in these everyday situations? Rate each 0–3: 0 = would never doze, 1 = slight chance, 2 = moderate chance, 3 = high chance. This is an educational tool developed by Clarity Health — not a validated clinical instrument.
Daytime sleepiness is a symptom, not a personality trait.It can signal sleep apnea, thyroid issues, or hormone imbalance — all addressable with the right workup.
An 8-item educational checklist for common risk factors associated with obstructive sleep apnea — one of the most underdiagnosed conditions in adults. This is an informational tool developed by Clarity Health — not a validated clinical instrument.
Untreated sleep apnea raises your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline.A simple sleep study can be arranged through Clarity Health — no referral maze required.
Stress and psychological wellbeing are deeply tied to hormones, sleep, and metabolic health — and they're rarely addressed in a 15-minute visit.
Stress & Wellbeing Questionnaire
How often have you felt the following over the last month? Rate each 0–4: 0 = Never, 1 = Almost never, 2 = Sometimes, 3 = Fairly often, 4 = Very often. This is an educational tool developed by Clarity Health — not a validated clinical instrument.
Chronic stress affects more than mood.Persistent stress can influence sleep quality, metabolic health, hormonal balance, and immune function — and is worth taking seriously.
Answer 10 lifestyle questions to receive an educational estimate based on your lifestyle inputs. This is not a medical measurement, clinical diagnosis, or validated biological-age test — it is an informational tool only.
Lifestyle factors are not fixed.Most of the habits and patterns that affect how we age are modifiable — and that's exactly what Clarity Health is built around.
