Mito Health Core Panel and membership

1. What it measures 25% of the rating 5 of 5

   The Core Panel lists 139 biomarkers (its home page says 138; 27 are urinalysis lines) including ApoB, Lp(a), hs-CRP, insulin, HbA1c, free T3 and T4, homocysteine, ferritin, B12, folate, kidney and liver, and its allergy tests are IgE only.

2. Lab quality 20% of the rating 4 of 5

   Mito names Quest, Labcorp and BioReference and you pick one when you build the order (only BioReference in New York and New Jersey); CMS lists a main lab of each as CAP-accredited, but Mito does not say which site runs your sample.

3. Results & follow-up 20% of the rating 4 of 5

   Mito says a salaried clinician reviews every result before your action plan, most results arrive within 3 days and your data can be exported on request, but we found nothing on calls for urgent values and a live consult costs extra.

4. Your data 20% of the rating 3 of 5

   It says it does not sell or share consumer health data and offers export and deletion, but it may use de-identified data for any lawful purpose, sells supplements at member prices, and its cookie banner has optional categories on by default.

5. Value 15% of the rating 5 of 5

   Core is $197.59 at member prices or $276.75 without, about $2 or less per listed biomarker, plus $9 a month and a lab draw fee passed through at cost: the cheapest broad panel we found.

The rating, 4.2 of 5, is the weighted average of these scores. See how we rank lab & biomarker tests and our standard.

• Paid certification College of American Pathologists, as recorded in the CMS CLIA database (for Quest, Labcorp and BioReference) October 2026

  CMS lists Quest’s Clifton, NJ lab (31D0696246), Labcorp’s Burlington, NC lab (34D0655059) and BioReference’s Elmwood Park, NJ lab (31D0652945, CAP to 2027-11-06) as accredited by CAP. Mito names these three companies but does not say which site runs your sample. CAP accreditation checks lab procedures, not Mito’s reports, and we found no independent test of Mito’s own reports.

How can tests be sold “at cost”, and who pays for it?

Mito says its price is its cost plus the lab’s ordering fees, that it earns only from the $9 a month membership, and that its clinicians are salaried, so no one is paid more for ordering more (manifesto (opens in a new tab), FAQ (opens in a new tab)). We could not check the claim. Members pay $197.59 for Core and non-members $276.75, so the $9 a month membership ($108 a year) pays for itself after about two panels a year.

Will the action plan push supplements?

Mito now sells supplements from Thorne, Pure Encapsulations, Nordic Naturals and Seed at member prices (supplements page (opens in a new tab)). Its manifesto promises “no recommendations shaped by what makes us more money” and says supplements are priced the same way, near cost. We could not check how it is paid for them.

What does Mito do with my data?

Its privacy policy (opens in a new tab) (updated 2026-08-05) says it does not use health or genetic data for targeted advertising and does not sell or share consumer health data, that identifiable data goes to outside researchers only with your consent or under legal and ethical safeguards, and that it may use or disclose de-identified data for any lawful purpose. You can ask for a machine-readable export or deletion by email. Its site cookie banner starts with optional cookies on, including session replay.

Do the experts and creators around it have a stake?

Its page names Brian Kennedy and Matt Kaeberlein as scientific advisors and does not say whether they are paid or hold equity. Several testimonials on its home page carry creator handles, such as @nasdaily, and it does not say whether they were paid. Members earn Mito credits for referrals, $4.50 each for the first four and $9 from the fifth (FAQ (opens in a new tab)).

Are the reviews real?

Trustpilot (opens in a new tab) shows 4.8 of 5 from 180 reviews, 91% five-star and none below four stars, as we read it, and marks Mito as asking customers to review. A set with no low scores is unusual. Trustpilot does not check reviews, and we could not see how Mito picks who to ask.

Do broad panels help healthy people?

Not shown. A Cochrane review (opens in a new tab) of 17 trials of general health checks found little or no effect on deaths. Mito’s own FAQ says it will recommend fewer tests when your questions allow.

Has anyone tested it independently?

We found no independent test of Mito’s results or reports, and no outside review beyond Trustpilot, which does not check reviews.

• It is the cheapest broad panel we found: Core at $197.59 for members or $276.75 without membership, against $399 for Labcorp’s 65+ marker panel and Quest’s 85+ marker profile, plus a lab draw fee passed through at cost.
• The panel is broad and plain. Core adds Lp(a), insulin, ferritin, TSH with free T3 and T4, homocysteine, B12, folate and blood mercury to the Essential base of lipids, ApoB, HbA1c, hs-CRP, blood count, liver, kidney and urinalysis. The allergy tests we saw are IgE only.
• Every order is signed by a Mito-network physician and every result reviewed by a clinician, according to Mito. It says its clinicians are salaried and its price list is public, with member and non-member prices on each page.
• Tests run at Quest, Labcorp or BioReference sites, which Mito calls CLIA-certified; CMS lists a main lab of each as CAP-accredited, and you choose among them when you order.
• You can order without joining. The $9 a month membership adds member prices, trend tracking and a care team. A full refund is available within 7 days if the labs have not run; after that it is case by case, with an 8% fee.

• The business model is its own account. It says it earns only from membership, but it also sells supplements, which our category notes warn against. We could not verify that it earns nothing on them.
• It is young and its claims are hard to check. Results, clinician review, “at cost” pricing and its “most results within 3 days” all rest on Mito’s statements, and we found no outside test of its reports.
• The lab is your choice but the site is not named. You pick Quest, Labcorp or BioReference when you build the order, and the tests and prices on offer differ between them; in New York and New Jersey only BioReference is available. Mito does not say which lab site runs your sample. We checked one main lab of each company.
• Data terms are looser than a lab’s: de-identified data may be used for any lawful purpose, and an optional-cookies banner starts with optional categories on. A live clinician consult is extra ($39 for 30 minutes for members, $99 without).
• Rechecked 2026-11-05: the Core price is unchanged ($197.59 member, $276.75 non-member at Quest), but the same panel costs more at the other labs: from $414.96 member at Labcorp and $463.61 at BioReference. The page counts 138 biomarkers in its comparison table and 139 in the test list, and Hawaii and Rhode Island are not served.
