SelfDecode

Pros
Much information! Large selection of thematic reports. Deep dive reports for Biohackers. Good search functionality. Easy to download the own dataset (as a very simple txt file, what makes it easy to work with).
You can also integrate your bloodwork data and answer some lifestyle questions in order to get a holistic view.

Cons
It's NOT a whole genome sequencing but a SNP-based genotyping method (SNP = Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) focussing on specific, selected sites in the genome.
The interpretation and conclusions based on the characteristics of the SNPs are of course open to discussion; if in doubt, I would always read up again critically and consult other sources.

Better understand my genetic risks and limitations in order to optimize my lifestyle and supplementation regime.

Very rarely, synchronisation with the app only works a day later.

Polar Pacer Pro
Customer

Pros
For me: Just a good sports watch for running and workout with not too many features that I won't ever need.
Cons
I would love to have 2 more features: payment and local music data for bluetooth ear buds.
Goal
Tracking running and workouts.

Whoop 4.0
Customer
· 5 months ago
Pros
Easy to wear. I really like that it doesn't have a display that could distract me. HR measurement is nearly identical to my Polar Verity (biceps band both).
Cons
I skipped logging habits and supplements in the daily journal, as I couldn't adjust it to my needs. Some useful metrics are not (yet) presented in the app: time trained in zone 2 per week for example. Asking the AI didn't give me any additional insights so far.
Goal
Measuring workouts and sleep and HRV.

Red Light Therapy BQ60
Customer

Pros
It helped to heal my achilles tendinitis quickly after months of pain. Same with plantar fasciitis and adductors pain.
What I like: not too big, I can just put it on the shelf when I'm not using it. It's quite affordable for testing the impact, if you are sceptical like me.

Cons
Not big enough for whole body treatment. Not the newest technology: only 2 different wavelengths, the newest RLT devices have 6 wavelengths.
Goal
Speed up the healing of my achilles tendinitis and other injuries.

Luminette 3
Customer
· 5 months ago
Pros
What I really like: I do not have to sit very close in front of a daylight lamp for 20 minutes, I can move while wearing it and have my hands free.
I use it almost every day - even in summer when I can't get into natural sunlight early - and I have the impression that I'm hardly tired in the afternoon, although this could also be due to a change in diet, less coffee and other supplements.

Cons
Charging via USB-C would be great. And subjectively, it could be a little brighter.
Goal
Reduce afternoon tiredness and seasonal winter melancholy.
