FAQs
BAT Levels
BATWatch™ is redefining brain health. By merging next-generation biomarker science, AI-driven analysis, and a global clinician network, we’re empowering millions to detect, track, and prevent biological drift, years before symptoms ever start. Our platform, language, and protocols set a new gold standard for proactive prevention and personal brain health monitoring.
What are BAT Levels™?
BAT Levels™ are blood-based biomarkers that reflect how much beta amyloid and tau are present in your system. They do not diagnose disease, they simply show biological direction so you can track how your system is keeping up over time.
What does BAT stand for in BAT Levels™?
BAT stands for beta amyloid and tau, two proteins studied for their role in cellular cleanup and long-term brain biology. Tracking BAT Levels™ lets you see patterns in biological drift, even when you feel fine.
What is a BAT Check™?
BAT Check™ is the standard brain health screening designed for adults 18 and up. It reviews upstream biomarkers and risk profile factors that can lead to BAT Levels™ changes. It does not diagnose conditions, it sets a starting point for tracking trends.
• Recommended for ages 18+
• Helps establish biological context
• Determines whether BAT Testing™ is appropriate
When do you start tracking BAT Levels™?
• Ages 25–30 may receive a baseline BAT Levels™ check to establish normal range.
• Annual BAT Levels™ testing starts at approximately age 30, similar to cholesterol or A1C tracking.
• If drift appears earlier, BAT Testing™ may be added sooner based on BAT Check™ results.
How are BAT Levels™ measured?
BAT Levels™ are measured through a standard blood draw and analyzed in certified labs. Results are reviewed through the BAT Check™ or expanded through BAT Testing™ if needed.
Why do BAT Levels™ matter?
BAT Levels™ offer a measurable window into how well your biology is managing long-term cleanup. They are not used to diagnose illness, they simply act as early signposts that help guide future decisions.
Is a BAT Test™ the same as BAT Levels™?
Not exactly.
Term Meaning
BAT Check™ 18+ upstream screening protocol
BAT Test™ The blood draw laboratory process
BAT Levels™ The biomarker values (results)
BAT Testing™ The expanded panel added only when appropriate
Can anyone get BAT Levels™ tested?
Yes. Most adults 18+ start with a BAT Check™. If patterns suggest biological drift or increased risk, a baseline BAT Levels™ panel may be ordered between 25–30, followed by yearly testing from 30+.
Do high BAT Levels™ mean something is wrong?
No. Elevated BAT Levels™ do not indicate a diagnosis. They simply mean your cleanup systems may be under strain. Only licensed providers can determine whether further steps are recommended.
Do BAT Levels™ predict the future?
No. BAT Levels™ provide direction, not diagnosis. They reveal patterns that may deserve attention, but no biomarker alone can determine what will happen long term.
Do BAT Levels™ change over time?
Yes. Stress, inflammation, metabolism, sleep, activity, nutrition, and age all influence BAT Levels™. That’s why trend tracking is more valuable than a one-time number.
What can affect BAT Levels™?
Genetics, lifestyle patterns, metabolic health, inflammation, sleep quality, social isolation, chronic stress, and medication usage are all known contributors. Some can be modified, some are simply markers of risk awareness.
Can BAT Levels™ improve?
Many people see improvement with lifestyle support and balance. If appropriate, a BATReset™ cycle may be considered under licensed medical supervision.
What is BATReset™?
BATReset™ is a short-cycle strategy designed to support cellular cleanup and reduce biological backlog. It is not a treatment or cure, it is a physician-managed cycle used only when clinically appropriate.
What is the BAT Pill™?
The BAT Pill™ is the informal nickname given to a short-cycle strategy that uses existing medications to activate autophagy, the body’s cellular cleanup process. It is never marketed or prescribed as a pill, it is only used when a clinician determines eligibility within a BATReset™ cycle.
How can I lower or support my BAT Levels™?
Lifestyle adjustments, improved metabolic balance, stress reduction, sleep support, movement, nutrition, social connection, and—when appropriate—clinician-guided BATReset™ cycles may all influence BAT Levels™.
What biomarkers are included in BAT Levels™?
BAT Levels™ include beta amyloid ratios and phosphorylated tau. Additional metabolic and inflammatory biomarkers may be added through BAT Testing™ if clinically indicated.
Can BAT Levels™ be checked at home?
Not yet. A standard blood draw and certified lab analysis are currently required to ensure accuracy and reliability.
What happens if my BAT Levels™ are high?
You may be guided through:
- Confirmatory testing
- Factor Check™ (to identify contributing causes)
- Lifestyle or prevention strategies, or
- A BATReset™ review if your provider considers you eligible
High levels are not a diagnosis, they are direction.
