Iron binding capacity (TIBC)
A blood test that measures the body’s capacity to bind and transport iron, reflecting transferrin availability.
Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) estimates the maximum amount of iron that can be bound by proteins in the blood, primarily transferrin—the main iron transport protein. Rather than measuring iron itself, TIBC reflects how much transferrin is available to carry iron throughout the body.
It is commonly used alongside serum iron and ferritin to assess iron status and diagnose conditions such as iron deficiency or iron overload. TIBC tends to increase when the body needs more iron and decrease when iron stores are sufficient or excessive, or when certain chronic conditions affect protein production.

A cycle built for lifelong progress
Each pass deepens the picture, tracks your trajectory, and makes the next recommendation smarter than the last.
If you are in Netherlands, please check the extra step regarding a kit you will receive before going to the lab.
Choose from +300 certified partner labs across Europe. Our first comprehensive draw captures +100 essential biomarkers, everything from cardiovascular markers and metabolic panels to hormone profiles and immune function. You show up. We handle the rest.

Our experts - not just algorithms - perform a whole-body analysis across cardiovascular, hormonal, metabolic, and immune systems. You receive an Axo Health Score, a Biological Age calculation, and a full breakdown of every marker: what it means, why it matters, and where you stand relative to true optimal ranges - not just lab reference ranges.

Your personalised health blueprint, built by Dr. Niko Mihic and Dr. Andy Walshe's sports science methodology. Not generic advice - specific, ranked, actionable interventions in nutrition, sleep, supplementation, exercise, and stress. Each recommendation is tied directly to your markers and calibrated to your lifestyle.

At the 6-month mark, a follow-up panel of targeted biomarkers confirms whether your interventions are working. Watch your score improve. See your biological age trend downward. Then the cycle begins again - deeper, sharper, and compounding with every pass.
