Six years of member data tells a story worth paying attention to.
Across our membership base, we've seen a 26.5% increase in HDL, a 30.6% drop in inflammation, and a 14.9% reduction in triglycerides. Those are meaningful numbers. But if you're not steeped in lab work and biomarker research, they might not mean much on their own. So let's break down what's actually happening inside the body when those numbers shift.
HDL is your body's cleanup crew.
Often called "good cholesterol," HDL works to clear excess cholesterol from the bloodstream and protect your arteries over time. Across our membership, HDL levels have steadily moved into what physicians consider the cardioprotective, low-risk range. That's not a small thing. That's your cardiovascular system becoming more resilient.
Inflammation tells us how much stress your body is carrying.
We measure this through hs-CRP, a key inflammatory blood marker. When inflammation decreases, the body is functioning more efficiently. It becomes more balanced, more resilient, better supported over the long term. Lower chronic inflammation is also associated with reduced risk of heart disease, cognitive decline, and other chronic conditions tied to aging. A 30.6% drop across our membership base is a signal that something is working at a fundamental level.
Triglycerides reflect metabolic health.
When triglycerides come down, the body is processing and utilizing energy more effectively. Less excess sitting idle. More metabolic efficiency. Better outcomes down the road.
None of these are vanity metrics. They are the core biomarkers medical teams track to understand where your health is heading before symptoms ever appear. Cardiovascular disease alone costs the U.S. healthcare system more than $230 billion annually, with projections rising significantly in the decades ahead. The most expensive healthcare is almost always the kind you need after prevention was delayed too long.
Better numbers are worth celebrating. But what they really represent is something more important than a good lab report. They represent a body that is working for you, not against you. That's what six years of data, and the Monarch approach to integrated health, actually looks like.
