Precision health relies on the ability to assess disease risk at an individual level, detect early preclinical conditions and initiate preventive strategies. Recent technological advances in omics and wearable monitoring enable deep molecular and physiological profiling and may provide important tools for precision health. We explored the ability of deep longitudinal profiling to make health-related discoveries, identify clinically relevant molecular pathways, and impact behavior in a prospective longitudinal cohort ( n = 109) enriched for risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). The cohort underwent integrative Personalized Omics Profiling (iPOP) from samples collected quarterly for up to 8 years (median 2.8 years) using clinical measures and emerging technologies including genome, immunome, transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, microbiome, and wearable monitoring. We discovered over 67 clinically actionable health discoveries and identified multiple molecular pathways associated with metabolic, cardiovascular and oncologic pathophysiology. We developed prediction models for insulin resistance using omics measurements illustrating their potential to replace burdensome tests. Finally, study participation lead the majority of participants to implement diet and exercise changes. Altogether, we conclude that deep longitudinal profiling can lead to actionable health discoveries and provide relevant information for precision health.
