ELYSION is devoted to maximizing longevity through diet, exercise, and cutting-edge health, DNA, and cancer screening.

The Lifespan in the U.S. is Declining Due to Obesity and Inactivity While in Other Developed Countries it is Rising...

Three Lifestyle Factors Primarily Control Longevity

  • Studies show there is a linear increase in longevity as BMI declines from 40 (extremely obese) to 21. We will teach you how to achieve your optimum BMI.

    HINT: It starts with eating less, often much less. Intermittent fasting is also key.

    Dr. Dizon will provide you with a recommended dietary regimen, nutritional counseling - and custom weight loss regimen if needed. He will follow up regularly to make sure you are on course.

  • This is easily measured by checking your average resting heart rate (RHR) for the day on an Apple Watch, Fitbit, or Oura ring. Studies show there is progressively increased longevity as RHR descends from 80 to 50. Men should achieve a RHR from 49-54 and women from 55-59. Dr. Dizon and Dr. Prodromos will design a custom fitness program for you based on your body type, health history, and genetics, and monitor your progress with regular follow-ups.

  • Studies clearly show that an intense strength workout 2-3 times a week improves longevity independently, separately, and differently than cardio training.

    Again, we will design a strength program tailored to you and tell you the recommended amount of weight to lift based on norms from the testing we have done: and follow-up regularly to make sure you are on course.

“Both increased adiposity and reduced physical activity are strong and independent predictors of death.” Hu et al., Harvard Schools of Medicine and Public Health, New England J of Medicine

Custom Exercise Prescription:

Fitness expert Dr. Angelo Dizon DPT will design a custom exercise prescription for you based on principles and protocols developed by world-renowned orthopaedic surgeon sports medicine specialist Chadwick Prodromos MD.

Nutritional Counseling & Gut Rejuvenation:

  • Dr. Dizon will also provide individual nutritional counseling.

  •  One of our outstanding functional medicine doctors will create a gut rejuvenation program to decrease inflammation and enhance immunity. 

  • They will also oversee a weight loss program if needed. While a natural approach is preferable, semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) or Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) can be prescribed.

The ELYSION Comprehensive Health, Cancer, Longevity Screening

More Comprehensive than Exams at University Medical Centers:

We offer all the standard blood and imaging tests that institutional Medical Centers do, but in addition, we offer advanced cancer, longevity, and health/genomics screenings, and functional medicine consultations that go far beyond what Medical Centers provide.

Our Evaluation is Entirely Virtual in Your Home City - Why do Medical Centers Make You Travel to Their Facility?:

University clinics generate significant profits from patients traveling to their locations and doing tests there, without medical benefit to you. In contrast, we send you to convenient top-tier testing facilities in your area. You will also pay less. An in-person physical exam is generally no longer necessary. Our virtual evaluation with imaging and other testing obviates the need for one unless you have a specific disease entity that requires it. Our expert physicians will serve as your private year-round concierge M.D. At University Medical Centers much of the executive physical exam is often performed by a mid-level practitioner or trainee, not an attending physician, without meaningful follow-up. We deliver a personal and expert experience not found elsewhere.

Cancer Screening

While lifestyle factors, BMI, and fitness are the cornerstones of longevity – detecting cancer early is the fourth pillar of preserving healthy life.

We will provide the most advanced cancer and genetic screening available to identify and provide state-of-the-art treatment for any medical disorders that may be discovered. The most important aspect of an annual exam is cancer detection. We have detected many malignancies in total body MRI scans that otherwise would have been missed with alternative detection tests.   

Our doctors will talk with you about which cancer screening test should be ordered for you. For example, some screening tests like mammograms or CT scans are indicated in some people but not others depending on risk factors. The answers are not always clear-cut, but our doctors will discuss each screening test, e.g., for lung, prostate, and colorectal cancer, and devise a plan with you.

TOTAL BODY MRI

Picks up cancers before they are detected by other methods. However, there are significant false positives with total body MRIs. It is incredibly important to review the results with a skilled physician to prevent any unnecessary and potentially harmful tests from being done.  

GALLERI TEST

This is a first-of-its-kind multi-cancer early detection test that looks for a signal shared by 50+ types of cancer with a single blood test. The GRAIL test analyzes cell-free DNA for cancer-associated methylation patterns and is incredibly accurate, with only a 0.5% false positive rate.

PSA

PSA stands for prostate cancer blood test. This is still quite useful although our total body MRI and Galleri test can significantly increase sensitivity.

MAMMOGRAM

Mammograms, in moderation, can be used to screen for breast cancer and identify malignancies before they are clinically apparent.

Longevity Screening

  • Telomeres are attached to your DNA. They are an epigenetic marker. Longer telomeres correlate with longer longevity. TruAge measures this. DNA methylation deteriorates with age. True age measures that. TRUAGE also measures the mitotic index which is an indication of how likely you will be to contract cancer.

  • This indicates not your chronological age but your biologic/physiologic age. It reveals how old your body truly is, it is adjusted upward or downward from your chronological age depending on the epigenetics of your DNA.

Health Screening


Intellxx DNA GENOMICS Analysis

Most doctors don’t know how to provide and interpret it. The ELYSION doctors are rock stars in their fields and do.  This is the most sophisticated DNA testing in existence, providing comprehensive, accessible medical reporting and scientific explanations of an individual patient’s gene function, including 20 panels that cover a wide variety of chronic health issues (including cardiac health, diabetes, osteoporosis, blood clot risk, methylation, detox, and more). It is not offered at most medical centers because it requires special training for the interpretation of the results. Some centers offer complete “DNA genetic sequencing” which sounds impressive on its face but in fact, rarely provides any information that is of actual clinical use. Conversely, IntellxxDNA testing gives you actionable data based on your DNA, such as health risks and benefits.

Ombre/GI Map/Viome

The microbiome is the bacteria in your gut. It turns out the bacteria in your gut have around 80% of your immune cells: making your gut the most important immune organ. Since the immune system is involved in virtually every common disorder, it’s incredibly important to care for it. This test looks at the nature and diversity of your gut microbiome. Once the results come in, we will make recommendations for probiotics to take to improve it. And then after stem cell treatment (if we do it) we can document any improvements in your microbiome after the stem cell treatment.  

Electroencephalogram (EEG)

A window into your cognitive space.

Electrocardiogram (EKG)

Your current cardiac status.

Coronary CT

Checking for imminent heart attack.

Bone Density and Body Composition Scan (DEXA)

For osteoporosis and body fat percentage.

Retinal Scan

Eye damage and diabetes detection.

Neurocognitive Test

Checking your mental acuity.

Blood Panel

Overall health profile.

Fibro Scan Liver Screening

Blood Pressure

Important for a variety of disorders.

Working in conjunction with the company that makes de-liver-ance, we will be offering fibro scans to tell if you are one of the huge number of people with significant fatty liver disease.

Stem Cell Anti-Aging Program

Prodromos Stem Cell Institute

Data from studies from the Prodromos Stem Cell Institute and the medical literature show that in most patients, a simple annual intravenous infusion of stem cells improves health and longevity markers and partially reverses many of the degenerative processes of aging. 

Dr. Prodromos, the founder of ELYSION, is also the founder and director of the Prodromos Stem Cell Institute. Umbilical cord mesenchymal (NOT embryonic or fetal) stem cells from Vitro Biopharma in Golden Colorado, the world’s best manufacturer of stem cells in our opinion, can be injected or infused at our center in the beautiful Caribbean Island nation of Antigua. Our results to date show that in most patients, simple intravenous infusion of stem cells improves health and longevity markers.     

A consultation with Dr. Prodromos is offered at no charge to ELYSION members who wish to explore the exciting potential benefits of stem cell treatment. 

DNA EPIGENETICS

Physiologic age, telomere length, DNA methylation, and mitotic index (cancer proclivity) are improved in most patients.  We have an ongoing study in this area.  

THE MICROBIOME

The microbiome, the all-important gut immunologic reservoir, also is improved in many patients. We have ongoing studies in this area as well.  

Effects of Stem Cell Infusion on Age-Related Degenerative Processes

COGNITIVE/ENERGY DECLINE

85% of our patients who had some degree of fatigue or short-term memory loss before treatment, report significant improvement after stem cell infusion.

SKIN/HAIR

Stem cell treatment consistently improves hair thickness and skin appearance.

JOINT PAIN

We can decrease or eliminate arthritis pain with simple IV infusions and stem cell injections, avoiding surgery in most patients.

BACK PAIN

Back and neck pain are consistently improved with complete safety by world-renowned Board-Certified Pain Management Specialist Kenneth Candido MD.

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION (ED)/PERFORMANCE

Stem cell injection improves ED in most men and can also help performance. 

FEMALE INTIMACY

Vaginal injection decreases dryness and pain and improves pleasure. 

EYE DISEASE

We can significantly improve visual fields in macular degeneration, optic nerve ischemia/atrophy, and optic nerve damage in glaucoma with IV infusion without injecting the eye. 

HEART DISEASE

We can often improve cardiac performance with IV infusion, without cardiac injection.
