The Biohacking Index has released its January 2026 report, marking the platform's first physician-curated, invite-only edition. This development reinforces the organization's commitment to establishing credibility rather than sponsorship or popularity as the primary determinant of visibility within the wellness and biohacking ecosystem. The report evaluates companies based on transparency, documentation, and real-world clinical relevance, with verification remaining optional and available exclusively to Premium Members.
In addition to company verification, the Biohacking Index now operates an invite-only membership model for clinicians and expert providers. Physicians are selected based on clinical experience, patient outcomes, professional reputation, and alignment with evidence-based, forward-thinking care. Invited experts may nominate wellness technologies, diagnostics, or nutraceuticals they actively use or recommend, including their own solutions provided those products complete the full verification process. Expert members receive enhanced professional profiles, SEO and large language model training benefits, and lead generation capabilities within the platform. However, nomination does not guarantee inclusion, and while verification remains optional, credibility remains the standard.
The January 2026 report features several companies that completed verification and earned placement. Da Vinci Medical, a manufacturer of advanced recovery and wellness technologies used in clinical and performance settings including the SUPERHUMAN Protocol, met Biohacking Index standards. Lumati, a light-based wellness technology company focused on cellular signaling and recovery, also achieved verification. Truista Coffee, a functional coffee company emphasizing contaminant transparency, sourcing, and guaranteed third-party lab testing on every package, completed the verification process. Each company demonstrated compliance with standards for transparency, documentation, and practitioner relevance.
Physician curation plays a central role in this new model. Dr. Lipman, founder of Physical Evidence Chiropractic in Boca Raton, Florida, is known for integrating advanced diagnostics, regenerative therapies, and recovery technologies into patient care. With more than 100 five-star patient reviews and recognition as a Top 10 Provider in the 2025 Biohacking Index Report, his nominations reflect tools used in active clinical practice rather than theoretical or consumer-driven trends. Several additional companies were nominated as part of the curation process but elected not to pursue verification at this time. These nominations remain visible to reflect practitioner awareness while maintaining transparency around verification status.
The January 2026 report signals a broader shift in the wellness and longevity industry toward expert-led evaluation, voluntary verification, and clear separation between recommendation and endorsement. This development matters because it addresses growing concerns about misinformation and commercial influence in the rapidly expanding biohacking market. By prioritizing physician curation and transparent verification processes, the Biohacking Index establishes a framework that could help consumers and practitioners navigate an increasingly complex landscape. The distinction between being recommended and being verified creates clearer standards for evaluation, potentially influencing how wellness technologies are developed, marketed, and adopted.
