While modern medicine has improved greatly over the past few decades, thanks to advancements in technology and research, there are limitations. The most popular is its one-size-fits-all approach to healthcare which often leads to misdiagnosis and ineffective treatments.
Over 750,000 people die or are permanently disabled annually due to misdiagnosis. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg; the consequences include wrong medication which is responsible for 5% to 41.3% of hospital admissions and 22% of readmissions after discharge. Other underreported effects include emotional suffering, increased costs, and a loss of trust in the healthcare industry.
The Power of Personalized Healthcare
Longevity is the new luxury. It is a growing field focused on extending lifespan and improving healthspan. At the moment, the market is attracting significant investments from leading VCs, and according to the Global Wellness Institute, it is projected to reach $650 billion by the end of the year. Also, there is a significant influx of longevity clinics; over 800 in the United States alone.
While most struggle to book a doctor’s appointment to treat life-threatening diseases, others—the wealthy—pay thousands of dollars to live longer and prevent those diseases. As expected, savvy businesses are taking up that offer, actively supporting their aspirations.
Healthspan Extension and Longevity
Healthspan is more than just living longer, it’s about living healthy longer. It is a measure of the years one lives in sublime health conditions before significant health decline. Clinics are presently researching multiple ways to extend healthspan, companies too. Several now offer personalized programs that cost thousands of dollars annually, promising to extend active health.
Healthspan greatly improves the quality of life, allowing you to actively continue doing the things you love, even as you grow old. It reduces the burden of healthcare—potentially lowering the risks of chronic disabilities and diseases, and, in turn, lowers healthcare costs. With healthspan as a solid pillar of longevity, modern medicine proposes solutions to extending it, but there are limitations.
Limitations of Modern Medicine
Personalized healthcare curates healthcare decisions based on a patient’s unique characteristics, comprising genetic makeup and genomic data. It aims to improve treatment inefficiencies and misdiagnosis, reducing side effects, death, permanent disability, emotional suffering, and costs.
Personalized medicine understands that we are all unique beings with varying genetics, medical history, and lifestyles. It sees the body as a whole organism and is leveraging new technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) to offer DNA analysis on a broader scale. Instead of simply prescribing a medication, DNA analysis provided a deeper insight into your physiology, lifestyle habits, and genetic makeup to design the most effective intervention plans.
At the vanguard of this revolutionary movement is Holiverse — a platform that is leveraging cutting-edge technologies to prioritize personalized healthcare and wellness solutions. Holiverse’s HoliVita product will pioneer DNA analysis in interactive mode. Lado Okhotnikov, the project’s CEO, does not only adopt a holistic view of the human body, but has designed products, intervention plans, and supplements backed by science and extensive medical innovations.
“For me, a holistic approach is about seeing the interconnectedness of all things. It’s about understanding that you can’t optimize one aspect of life in isolation. In Holiverse, it means considering how blockchain technology impacts personal health, or how the metaverse can enhance real-world opportunities”

Introducing HoliVita
HoliVita is a biotech company dedicated to transforming personal health management through data-driven insights and new technologies. It provides you with accurate and well-detailed information about your health, eliminating misdiagnosis and errors in treatment. HoliVita will allow users to create profiles. However, they must provide personal data in three phases.
- Genome Testing: this phase will include a thorough examination of users’ DNA to identify variations and mutations capable of increasing the risks of chronic and genetic diseases.
- Questionnaires: HoliVita requires users to answer a health-based questionnaire comprising 60 questions about their physical and genetic health conditions. Mostly, it will range from simple questions about lifestyle—your job, your daily routine, etc—to family history, previous treatments, etc.
- Medical Records: HoliVita also requires users to upload their medical data to the platform. Lado’s vision of HoliVita and Holiverse is backed by science and ethical handling of data, hence the decision to store users’ information in extremely secure storage devices. Furthermore, blockchain’s integration will guarantee additional transparency, allowing users to see who has access to their data.
“The first version will empower users to create and optimize programs to achieve their specified goals. Central to this is an interactive digital avatar that generates a comprehensive personalized protocol across 4 key areas: supplements, nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle. This protocol is initially designed for 3 months, enabling users to achieve initial goals and experience the platform in action. The main, Digital avatar, program will, in its turn, formulate a detailed 1-year plan, offer a subscription model, and – utilizing user-provided DNA data required for maximum accuracy – will be capable of calculating health forecasts up to 50 years ahead with 92% precision. The platform will also include a progress tracker”
— Dr. Dmitry Chebanov (Head of Health at Holiverse) on the basic version of HoliVita to be released soon.
HoliVita will also provide personalized supplements designed for each user. Based on the data gathered, Holiverse will, from the most natural, high-grade, and effective raw materials, make essential supplements aimed at improving healthspan and longevity.
“Holivita doesn’t replace you, it warns you. It models possible scenarios, analyzes data, and says: Hey, if you continue to sleep four hours a night and eat like a college student, here’s what will happen in five years. It’s your personal health oracle—without the cryptic clues”

Science or Marketing?
We presently have Botox, lasers, Ozempic, Wegovy, and hormonal therapy marketed as skin longevity and means to extend youth. As an emerging industry, questionable players have found their way in longevity, promising supplements that are not not science backed and treatments that lack any atom of scientific proof. Holiverse is different. It prioritizes personalized healthcare, and through HoliVita, it will deliver data-driven insights backed by advanced and real technologies to help improve longevity in five directions:
- Body composition and strength: Utilizing personalized protocols derived from HoliVita, encompassing tailored nutrition and exercise guidance, supported by unique molecular supplements formulated based on individual biochemistry. Progress and potential outcomes can be simulated and tracked using the developing DNA-based Digital Twin. Even choices like ergonomic footwear from the marketplace align with improving physical mechanics.
- Mental sharpness and stress: Offering strategies identified through HoliVita analysis, potentially including lifestyle adjustments, targeted molecular supplements for cognitive function or stress resilience, and fostering mindful practices, perhaps complemented by products like Mindful Mate Tea available in the Holiverse marketplace.
- Anti-age and appearance: Combining internal health strategies identified by HoliVita (diet, lifestyle, targeted supplements impacting cellular health) with external support from Holisthetic Cosmetics (natural, organic skincare). The DNA-based Digital Twin offers a unique predictive tool to visualize the long-term impact of choices on appearance.
- Energy and vitality: Creating personalized plans via HoliVita focused on optimizing energy metabolism through precise nutritional recommendations, lifestyle adjustments, and bespoke molecular supplements. The mindful energy aspect might be supported by Mindful Mate Tea.
- Reproductive health and hormones: Leveraging deep genetic insights and lifestyle data processed by HoliVita to provide personalized guidance for hormonal balance and reproductive wellness, potentially supported by specifically formulated supplements where appropriate.
“Holivita creates your personalized digital copy to predict what choices will help you live longer, better, and healthier”

Holiverse’s upcoming DNA twin concept—the second version of the HoliVita app, per Dr. Dmitry Chebanov—will change the game. Backed by substantial scientific advancements, AI, blockchain, and metaverse, it will deliver optimized and well-tailored programs that will extend healthspan and, in turn, increase longevity.
Marketing or scientific-backed personalized healthcare? Time will tell which will last.
