64 everyday experience questions map metabolism, immunity, nerve and energy. See your current pattern and what may deserve attention next.
Four systems, one perspective
Each code follows M–I–N–E: metabolism, immunity, nerve and energy. Combinations organize results and conversation; they are not personality types or fixed labels.
Each dimension has two directions. They describe a current self-report tendency, with an observation focus to help interpret the result.
Read N / E across the top and M / I down the side. Each intersection is one current-state combination.

Metabolic mobilization and state initiation tend to be faster. State and recovery appear relatively stable as conditions change. Sustained attention and information organization tend to be stronger. Energy initiation and short-term mobilization tend to be faster.
Recovery after sustained high-intensity schedules. Maintaining a regular routine and stable daily rhythm. Keeping a balance between focus and timely rest. Sleep and recovery after high-intensity activity.
The combination summary uses this questionnaire's direction scores. When the two sides are close, the result is shown as balanced or provisional and should be read with the scores and assessment scope.
MINE draws on research perspectives on multi-system change, homeostatic regulation and individual heterogeneity in aging biology. It translates complex concepts into everyday experiences that can be described by the individual, creating a structured entry point for self-observation.
Nutrient sensing, glucose and lipid balance; the questionnaire enters through eating, weight change and post-meal experience.
Inflammation regulation, barriers and recovery; the questionnaire enters through discomfort, sensitivity and recovery rhythm.
Neural networks, plasticity and rhythm; the questionnaire enters through attention, information processing and thought switching.
Energy supply, stress response and recovery; the questionnaire enters through energy initiation, sleep recovery and activity tolerance.
These are the research background and framework behind MINE. The current questionnaire does not directly measure nutrient sensing, inflammatory pathways, neural plasticity, mitochondrial function or other specific biological mechanisms. Results reflect the current self-report pattern and are not a medical assessment.
These sources inform the framework's research perspective; they do not validate the questionnaire or its scores.
The two directions within each dimension are scored independently. They are not combined into one overall health score.
Suppose the eight questions for one direction average 4.0:
If two directions score 61 and 55, the 6-point gap is below 10, so it is shown as a provisional tendency.
How to read the result Scores reflect direction tendencies in this self-report questionnaire. They are not disease risk, biological age or organ-function measurements, and do not replace medical diagnosis.
