Blood Biomarkers We Measure

Your blood provides detailed insight into how your body is functioning. These biomarkers help us assess overall health, identify root causes, and track progress over time. Below is the full list of tests included in our comprehensive panel.

Metabolic Health

  • Measures blood sugar after fasting; high levels may indicate prediabetes or diabetes.

  • Reflects average blood sugar over the last 3 months, showing long-term glucose control.

  • Reveals how efficiently your body regulates blood sugar and energy storage.

  • Byproduct of metabolism; high levels can lead to gout or signal metabolic stress.

Cardiovascular & Lipids

  • Overall cholesterol level in the blood.

  • The ‘good’ cholesterol that helps clear fats and protects arteries.

  • The ‘bad’ cholesterol that can build up and block arteries.

  • Blood fats that rise with poor diet, alcohol, or insulin resistance.

  • A key indicator of cardiovascular risk.

  • Genetic cholesterol particle strongly linked to heart disease risk.

  • Protein found on LDL particles; a stronger predictor of heart risk than cholesterol alone.

Inflammation & Immune Health

  • Detects low-grade inflammation associated with heart disease.

  • Elevated levels may increase risk for heart attack, stroke, and cognitive decline.

  • Enzyme that rises when tissues are stressed or damaged.

Hormones

  • Main stress hormone; impacts energy, mood, and weight.

  • Reflects overall testosterone production.

  • Active form of testosterone available for use in the body.

  • Primary estrogen; supports reproductive, bone, and cardiovascular health.

  • Regulates reproductive function and egg/sperm development.

  • Triggers ovulation and supports reproductive hormone balance.

  • Prepares the body for pregnancy and balances estrogen.

  • Involved in fertility and reproductive health.

  • Protein that controls how much hormone is active.

  • Precursor hormone that declines with age; linked to vitality and resilience.

  • Marker of prostate health; elevated levels may indicate inflammation, enlargement, or cancer risk.

Thyroid Function

  • Tells the thyroid when to produce hormones.

  • Major thyroid hormone influencing metabolism and growth.

  • Active thyroid hormone that directly affects energy and metabolism.

  • Detect autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease.

Nutrient Status

  • Supports bones, immunity, and hormone balance.

  • Essential for nerves, brain function, and red blood cells.

  • Key for DNA repair, cell growth, and pregnancy health.

  • Indicates stored iron reserves.

  • Vital for immunity, wound healing, and reproductive health.

  • Important for energy production and connective tissue strength.

  • Supports bone density, muscle contraction, and heart rhythm.

  • Works with calcium for strong bones and energy metabolism.

  • Involved in over 300 processes, including energy, sleep, and muscle function.

Minerals & Toxins

  • Heavy metal; high levels can harm brain, kidney, and immune function.

  • Toxic element linked to neurological and metabolic stress.

Iron Studies

  • Heavy metal; high levels can harm brain, kidney, and immune function.

  • Protein that transports iron to where it’s needed.

  • Efficiency of iron transport and availability.

Liver Function

  • Enzyme rising with liver stress or damage.

  • Enzyme reflecting liver and muscle health.

  • Early marker of liver dysfunction or toxin exposure.

  • Product of red blood cell breakdown; high levels can indicate liver stress.

  • Enzyme linked to liver, bone, and bile duct health.

  • Major protein made by the liver; reflects nutrition and liver function.

  • Measures overall protein balance in the blood.

Kidney Function & Electrolytes

  • Waste product filtered by the kidneys; higher levels may suggest reduced kidney function.

  • Best estimate of kidney efficiency.

  • Electrolyte that regulates hydration and blood pressure.

  • Essential electrolyte for nerve signals and heart rhythm.

Haematology

  • Protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells.

  • Percentage of blood made up of red cells.

  • Average size of red blood cells.

  • Amount of hemoglobin per red blood cell.

  • Number of oxygen-carrying red cells.

  • Reflects immune system activity.

  • Cells that help stop bleeding and support healing.

  • First responders to infection or stress.

  • Key immune cells for viral defence and long-term immunity.

  • Clean up dead cells and help fight infection.

  • Release histamine in allergic reactions.
