Glucose

Measures blood sugar levels, a key indicator for managing blood sugar balance and preventing conditions like diabetes. Monitoring glucose is essential for understanding metabolic health.

HBA1C

Reflects average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months, offering insights into long-term glucose control and diabetes risk.

Insulin – Fasting

Assesses insulin levels when fasting, helping to detect insulin resistance, a precursor to diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

U&E and Electrolytes

Evaluates kidney function and the balance of electrolytes like sodium and potassium, critical for maintaining cellular and organ function.

Uric Acid

Monitors uric acid levels, helping to assess conditions like gout and kidney health, which impact inflammation and detoxification pathways.

Ferritin

Measures stored iron levels, vital for energy production and preventing fatigue, anaemia, and poor oxygen circulation.

TSH

Assesses thyroid-stimulating hormone levels to evaluate overall thyroid function, a major regulator of metabolism and energy.

FT4

Measures free thyroxine, an active thyroid hormone, to provide insight into metabolic rate and energy balance.

FT3

Evaluates free triiodothyronine, the most active thyroid hormone, crucial for regulating metabolism and energy levels.

Homocysteine

A key marker for cardiovascular health, this test assesses risk factors related to heart disease and nutrient absorption issues like Vitamin B deficiencies.

Vitamin D3

Monitors vitamin D levels, critical for bone health, immune function, and overall well-being, particularly in maintaining calcium balance.

Vitamin B12

Vital for energy production and nervous system health, this test ensures optimal levels to support cognitive function and prevent fatigue.

Calcium

Assesses blood calcium levels, which are crucial for bone health, muscle function, and proper cell signalling.

Phosphate

It works alongside calcium to support bone strength and energy production, which is important for cellular metabolism.

Magnesium

This test measures magnesium levels, which are essential for muscle and nerve function and are key players in energy production and heart health.

Cortisol Serum

Measures cortisol levels to assess stress response and adrenal health, which are important for balancing hormones and overall resilience.

Oestradiol

Evaluate estrogen levels, which are crucial for reproductive health, mood regulation, and overall hormonal balance.

Testosterone

Assesses testosterone levels in men and women, which are important for energy, muscle mass, and mood stabilization.

Full Blood Count (FBC)

Provides a detailed view of blood health, measuring red and white blood cells and platelets to assess immune function and overall vitality.

Liver Function Test (LFT)

Evaluates liver health, essential for detoxification, metabolism, and nutrient processing, ensuring your body can handle toxins effectively.

LDH

Measures lactate dehydrogenase, which helps detect tissue damage, is important for understanding inflammation and cellular health.

Optional Add-ons (Not included in the total price)

Iron Serum

It measures the circulation of iron, which is vital for oxygen transport and energy production.

Transferrin

Evaluate how well the body transports iron, which is critical for maintaining energy and preventing anemia.

Lipogram

Assesses cholesterol and lipid levels, which are important for cardiovascular health and metabolic risk.

Apolipoprotein A/B

Advanced lipid profile that gives a clearer view of cholesterol management and heart disease risk.

Fibrinogen

A blood clotting marker is important for cardiovascular health and detecting inflammation.

CRP

Measures general inflammation in the body, which can indicate underlying chronic disease or infections.

CRP Ultrasensitive

A more sensitive version of CRP is useful for detecting low-grade inflammation, which is often linked to heart disease and metabolic conditions.

Magnesium RBC

It provides a more in-depth measure of magnesium at the cellular level, which is important for overall cellular function and energy production.

DHEA Sulphate

Assesses adrenal health and stress response, important for understanding hormone imbalances.

Free Testosterone

It measures the bioavailable testosterone that is active in the body and is key for reproductive and overall health.

SHBG

Evaluate sex hormone-binding globulin to understand hormonal balance and availability of testosterone and estrogen.
