Discover Exactly How Your Metabolism Works

Body Bar MD now offers PNOĒ metabolic breath analysis — a clinical-grade look at how your body burns fuel, moves oxygen, and ages. We turn your results into a personalized nutrition and training plan, as part of our longevity and medical weight-loss care.

The technology behind the test

The Gold-Standard Metabolic Test, Now at Body Bar MD

Body Bar MD has partnered with PNOĒ — a clinical-grade breath analyzer. The RMR test takes just 10–15 minutes at rest; the active VO₂ Max / AMR test runs 30–45 minutes during light movement. Either way, it reads the oxygen you breathe in and the carbon dioxide you breathe out to reveal how your metabolism, heart, lungs, and cells are actually performing.

It’s the same category of testing used in hospitals and elite sports labs — independently validated to deliver accuracy comparable to those clinical analyzers. As a proud PNOĒ partner, our providers use it to make your weight-loss, longevity, and performance plan precise instead of guesswork.

The technology we use

One Breath Reads Your Whole Body

We’ve partnered with PNOĒ — the metabolic analyzer trusted by elite health and performance brands worldwide. From a single guided breathing test, your Body Bar MD provider sees exactly how your metabolism, heart, lungs, cells, and biological age are performing.

Five systems, one breath

Your Body’s Full Picture in a Single Test

The PNOĒ analyzer reads the oxygen you breathe in and the carbon dioxide you breathe out. In minutes, your Body Bar MD provider has a clinical-grade window into five key systems:

  • Biological Age

  • Metabolic Rate

  • Heart & Lungs

  • Cells

  • Nervous System

Body Bar Script

The area’s only PNOĒ provider. No other practice in Carmel, Terre Haute, or Aurora offers this clinical-grade metabolic test — locally, it’s exclusive to Body Bar MD.

Get Your Full Picture

Built For Your Goals

Whether you want to lose weight, perform better, or live longer, your metabolism is the common thread — and most plans never measure it.

One Test, Three Things It Helps You Do

  • Weight Loss

    A slowed metabolism is the No. 1 reason diets stall. We measure your real calorie burn so your nutrition plan fits your body — not a generic formula.

    ~8% average weight loss in PNOĒ programs

    Athletic Performance

    How efficiently oxygen flows through your lungs, heart, and cells is the hallmark of performance. We pinpoint your limiters and your ideal training zones.

    Up to 14% faster race times reported

    Longevity

    Oxygen flow is one of the strongest predictors of healthy aging and chronic-disease risk. Track your biological age and the habits that move it.

    Biological age reduced ~5 years on average

Averages reported across PNOĒ programs and published studies. Individual results vary; testing supports — but does not replace — medical care.

Measured with clinical precision
