What is included?

Here is what is included with a Bone Health Check: Calcium, Vitamin D, Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)

These three markers help assess bone metabolism and calcium regulation:

  • Calcium: Essential for bone strength, muscle function, and nerve signalling; imbalances can indicate bone or gland issues.
  • Vitamin D: Aids calcium absorption; deficiency can lead to weak bones or osteoporosis.
  • Parathyroid Hormone (PTH): Regulates calcium and phosphate levels; abnormal levels may signal parathyroid or kidney problems.

Together, they help diagnose conditions like osteoporosis, hyperparathyroidism, and vitamin D deficiency.

An Electrocardiogram (ECG) Test records the electrical activity of your heart to detect any abnormalities. It's a quick, painless test that helps assess your heart health and identify potential issues.

An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) records the heart’s electrical activity. It helps:

  • Detect irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias)

  • Identify heart attacks or damage

  • Assess heart size and function

  • Monitor the effects of medications or devices

 

It’s a quick, non-invasive test crucial for diagnosing many heart conditions.

Here is what is included in a Heart Health check: Total Cholesterol, Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL), High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL), Total Cholesterol to HDL Ratio, Cholesterol Ratio, Triglycerides, Apolipoprotein A-I (Apo A-I), Apolipoprotein B (Apo B), Apolipoprotein B to A-I Ratio (Apo B/A-I Ratio), Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP).

These markers provide a comprehensive cardiovascular risk profile, combining lipid levels, protein markers, and inflammation indicators:

  • Total Cholesterol: Measures all cholesterol types in the blood.

  • LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein): "Bad" cholesterol; contributes to arterial plaque.

  • HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein): "Good" cholesterol; helps clear LDL from blood.

  • Total Cholesterol to HDL Ratio / Cholesterol Ratio: Evaluates heart disease risk; lower ratios are better.

  • Triglycerides: Blood fats; high levels are linked to heart disease and metabolic disorders.

  • Apolipoprotein A-I (Apo A-I): Main protein in HDL; protective against heart disease.

  • Apolipoprotein B (Apo B): Found in LDL and other atherogenic particles; a strong indicator of cardiovascular risk.

  • Apo B/A-I Ratio: Reflects the balance of “bad” vs. “good” lipoproteins; higher ratios suggest higher risk.

  • Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)]: Genetic risk factor for cardiovascular disease; not modified by lifestyle.

  • High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP): Marker of low-grade inflammation; elevated levels predict higher heart disease risk.

This advanced lipid and inflammation panel gives a detailed view of heart disease risk beyond standard cholesterol tests.

We will also check your C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in the Infection & Inflammation check.

C-Reactive Protein (CRP):
CRP is a marker of inflammation in the body. It is produced by the liver in response to infection, injury, or chronic inflammatory conditions.

  • Elevated CRP may indicate infection, autoimmune disease (like rheumatoid arthritis), or cardiovascular risk.

  • Normal/low CRP suggests minimal inflammation.

It helps monitor disease activity and response to treatment.

Here is what we include in the Kidney Health Check: Creatinine, Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR), Chloride, Potassium, Phosphate, Sodium, Urea, Magnesium, Uric Acid, Cystatin C, Total Protein.

These tests assess kidney function, electrolyte balance, and overall metabolic health:

  • Creatinine: Waste product filtered by the kidneys; elevated levels may indicate impaired kidney function.

  • eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate): Measures how well the kidneys filter blood; a key indicator of kidney function.

  • Chloride: Helps regulate fluid and acid-base balance.

  • Potassium: Essential for heart and muscle function; abnormal levels can be dangerous.

  • Sodium: Regulates fluid balance, blood pressure, and nerve/muscle function.

  • Urea: Waste from protein metabolism; elevated levels may suggest kidney dysfunction or dehydration.

  • Magnesium: Important for muscle, nerve, and enzyme function; imbalances can affect heart rhythm and neuromuscular health.

  • Uric Acid: High levels may indicate gout or kidney issues.

  • Cystatin C: A Sensitive marker of kidney function, often more accurate than creatinine in some cases.

  • Total Protein: Measures albumin and globulins; low or high levels may indicate kidney, liver, or nutritional issues.

Together, these markers give a thorough evaluation of kidney health and electrolyte status.

Here is what is included in a Metabolic Syndrome check: Leptin.

Leptin is a hormone produced by fat cells that helps regulate appetite and energy balance:

  • High leptin levels are often seen in obesity and may indicate leptin resistance, where the brain no longer responds properly to the hormone’s appetite-suppressing effects.

  • Low leptin levels can be associated with starvation, extreme weight loss, or certain hormonal conditions.

Leptin testing can help evaluate metabolic health, obesity-related disorders, and rare causes of weight gain or loss.

Folate (Vitamin B9), Vitamin B12 (B12).

Folate (Vitamin B9) and Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) are essential B vitamins involved in: Red blood cell formation, DNA synthesis, Nervous system function.

  • Folate (Vitamin B9): Low levels can cause megaloblastic anaemia, fatigue, and, in pregnancy, increased risk of neural tube defects. Found in leafy greens, legumes, and fortified foods.
  • Vitamin B12: Deficiency may lead to anaemia, nerve damage, memory issues, and fatigue. Common in vegans or those with absorption issues (e.g. pernicious anaemia).

Testing helps diagnose the causes of anaemia and neurological symptoms.

Here is what is included in a Thyroid Health check: Free Triiodothyronine (FT3), Free Thyroxine (FT4), Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Thyroglobulin Antibody (TgAb), Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPOAb).

These tests assess thyroid function and help diagnose thyroid disorders:

  • Free Triiodothyronine (FT3): Active thyroid hormone; regulates metabolism. Abnormal levels may indicate hyper- or hypothyroidism.

  • Free Thyroxine (FT4): Main hormone produced by the thyroid; helps control metabolism and energy.

  • Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH): Produced by the pituitary; stimulates the thyroid. High TSH often means underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism); low TSH suggests overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism).

  • Thyroglobulin Antibody (TgAb): Autoantibody that may indicate autoimmune thyroid disease like Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease.

  • Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPOAb): Often elevated in autoimmune thyroid disorders; used to confirm diagnosis.

Together, these tests provide a full picture of thyroid health, function, and potential autoimmune causes.

Here is what is included with a Urinalysis: Urine pH, Urine Protein, Urine Glucose, Ketones, White Blood Cells (WBCs), Red Blood Cells (RBCs), Casts, Urobilinogen, Nitrite, Bacterial Count, Culture and Sensitivities
