The science

Built on evidence. Benchmarked to optimal.

Orba isn’t a wellness trend. Every marker we test, every range we benchmark against, and every recommendation we make is grounded in clinical research and reviewed by physicians.

Our principles

Three ideas behind every result.

Optimal, not just normal

Reference ranges flag disease. We benchmark you against the narrower ranges associated with long-term health and low future risk — so “in range” actually means thriving.

Trajectory over snapshot

A single value tells you where you are. Repeated testing tells you where you’re headed. We weight change over time, because trends catch problems earlier than thresholds.

Clinician in the loop

Algorithms score the panel; licensed clinicians review it. No result reaches you without a human who can put it in the context of your history and goals.

The standard

“Normal” and “optimal” are not the same thing.

A standard lab range is built from the general population — including a lot of people who aren’t well. Sitting inside it can still mean elevated long-term risk.

Orba scores you against the tighter optimal band tied to healthy ageing, so you can see the gap a basic panel would hide.

Lab standards

How your sample is handled.

Hospital-grade from draw to result — accredited labs, validated assays, and a clinician’s sign-off before anything reaches you.

Accredited labs

Every sample runs at CAP-accredited, CLIA-certified facilities — the same standard used by hospitals.

Validated assays

We use clinically validated assays and reference methods for each biomarker, not screening shortcuts.

Clinician review

A licensed clinician reviews your full panel and signs off before results are released.

Private by design

Your data is encrypted, never sold, and yours to export or delete at any time.

Health you can verify

Measure what matters, against ranges that predict your future.

100+ biomarkers, optimal-range scoring, and a clinician in the loop — precision health for people who’d rather know.
