The Lab in Your Living Room: Why HUSBAND™ Trusts SiPhox for Men’s At-Home Health Testing

The Lab in Your Living Room: Why HUSBAND™ Trusts SiPhox for Men’s At-Home Health Testing

You’ve probably seen it—he’s more tired than usual, gets winded quicker, his moods shift unexpectedly. You know something’s off, but getting him to schedule a physical—or wait weeks for bloodwork—feels like pulling teeth. Meanwhile, six out of 10 Americans are already living with a chronic condition, and many of them don’t even know it. That’s why at HUSBAND™, we’re proud to partner with SiPhox Health, a breakthrough diagnostic company putting lab-grade health insights directly into your hands.

What Is SiPhox?

SiPhox Health is a diagnostic technology startup co-founded by MIT scientists Diedrik Vermeulen and Michael Dubrovsky. Their innovation? A tiny silicon photonic chip capable of running lab-quality blood tests—think the same semiconductor tech that powers the internet, now reimagined to power your health.

Rather than rely on large-scale lab machinery or outdated paper-strip tests, SiPhox miniaturizes all the high-cost, high-performance elements of a diagnostic lab onto a single chip. It’s fast, powerful, and precise.

Why It Matters for Men 40+

For men over 40, time is a limited resource—and early detection is everything. From creeping blood sugar to declining testosterone and rising inflammation, waiting for an annual physical isn’t good enough anymore. SiPhox’s home testing kits—powered by a simple finger-prick—offer a deeper, real-time look into:

  • Metabolic health (HbA1c, insulin, glucose, HOMA-IR)

  • Cardiovascular risk (ApoB, ApoA, LDL:HDL Ratio, Lipoprotein(a))

  • Hormone balance (Total Testosterone, DHEA-s, Cortisol, SHBG, Estradiol)

  • Inflammation (hsCRP, Ferritin, Homocysteine)

These are the exact markers HUSBAND™ uses to tailor our 3-part supplement system—morning, afternoon, and before bed.

What the Research Says

  • 20% of SiPhox users show early signs of pre-diabetes, many without symptoms which is critical insight that traditional yearly testing often misses.

  • The SiPhox platform enables multiplex testing from a single drop of blood, offering many dozens of biomarkers at once which is far beyond most home kits.

  • With FDA clearance in the works, SiPhox Home delivers test results in under five minutes, opening the door to instant, adaptive care.

Why HUSBAND™ Includes It

We don’t guess. We test. Every HUSBAND™ plan includes biomarker tracking powered by SiPhox. Their advanced diagnostics make it possible to go beyond “normal” and aim for “optimal,” using what I call the HUSBAND™ Grade—a performance scorecard that helps her see how he's really doing, and helps him stay accountable.

Together, we translate lab data into actionable choices: the right supplements, dosed at the right time, with formulas based on his specific biological needs.

What to Expect

  • Faster recovery and more energy throughout the day

  • Improved testosterone balance and stable moods

  • Real-time feedback that aligns with his daily supplement routine

  • Personalized insights—delivered to your phone, not a doctor’s office lobby


“The future of diagnostics is personalized, fast, and frictionless. SiPhox is paving the way by putting lab precision into the hands of everyday people. It’s a paradigm shift—and we’re proud to be building HUSBAND™ on top of it.”
