Cenegenics is a company founded in 1997 specialized in providing body fat loss solutions. Its mission is to make you look and feel years younger by offering a proactive and personalized age management program that is able to maximize your wellness, vitality, and health throughout life. This objective is achieved through screening, hormone replacements, extensive health tests, and supplements.

There are more than 35,000 women and men who joined this program and reported that they lost around 30% in body fat, on average.

At the time this article was written there were 18 Cenegenics locations in the large cities in the United States.

How much does Cenegenics cost?

The Cenegenics company does not offer any information on their website about how much any of their programs cost, through extensive research, we were able to find information on what to expect in terms of expenses. However, these are just estimates and you should contact the company directly to get an exact quote.

Expect to pay anywhere between $3,200 and $4,500 for the initial assessment fee, and $1,200 to $2,300 for the hormone replacement therapy. This program includes some monthly supplements that cost around $1,100 per month and a medical fee that will set you back around $830. Also, you should take into consideration the lab fees. All of these costs will be influenced by the type of supplements that are recommended to you and your personalized program. For example, we found a large variety of supplements on eBay with prices starting at around $40 and going up to more than $240.

People have reported that the entire cost of the program for the first year would be anywhere between $18,500 and more than $22,000.

Which are the extra costs?

In case you don’t live close to a Cenegenics center, you have to take into consideration the transportation and accommodation costs as well.

Some additional costs are represented by the premium add-ons which you could add to your plan such as the skin care products, the telomere health tests, and the cardiac risk management tests.

How does Cenegenics work?

There isn’t a lot of information on the Cenegenics company website regarding their program, but they say that they use cutting-edge, evidence-based science in order to create and provide an individualized age-management medical program for both women and men.

The Cenegenics program includes various services and products such as supplements, telomere testing, private formulations, a heart disease and stroke prevention program, skincare products, an elite health program, and fitness wear.

Their flagship service is the elite health program which starts with a baseline test. Through this test, they will check your physiologic and metabolic baseline in order to determine which are your greatest health weaknesses and strengths. As the “gold standard,” these tests may include balance and flexibility testing, resting measurements, a DXA scan, core strength testing, cardiovascular endurance testing, muscular strength and endurance testing, a carotid intima-media scan, and a neurocognitive assessment. After reading the results of these tests, they will be able to set an individualized medical plan that will help you to prevent the appearance of diseases in the future.

Once the baseline test is set and explained, you will be allocated to a specialized team of coordinators, physicians, nutrition experts, exercise counselors, and wellness coaches. All of them will do their best to help you achieve your objectives. They will talk with you about your monthly progress and make permanent recommendations. During the period you are active in the program, Cenegenics will provide you with prescription hormones and nutritional supplements as indicated in your customized plan.

As long as you will stick to the plan and respect all of their recommendations, you will boost your mental acuity, decrease your chances of future age-related diseases, improve your muscle tone, improve your physical vitality and you will sleep better as well.

Telomere testing

According to the company, the telomere testing process is done to assess your health at a cellular level in order to determine your biological age compared to your chronological age. Your personal choices have a huge impact on your age.

Heart and disease prevention testing

Besides the tests we talked about above, the Cenegenics company also uses state-of-art technology and very complex lab testing to make sure you are able to prevent any heart disease in the future. In the United States, heart disease is the number one cause of death.

During the heart and disease prevention testing, you will talk about your and your family’s health history. Also, you will go through an extensive physical exam, similar to the one you would take at your local doctor’s office. The next thing they will do is perform inflammatory marker, genetic marker, and advanced lipid panel testing. Finally, your existing plaque and the chances of build-up in the future are evaluated through the Carotid Intima-Media Thickening (CIMT) testing.

Once the company has the results of all these tests, the team working with you will create a program according to you needs.
