About this test’s biomarkers

A blood biomarker is a substance or characteristic that can be measured in a person’s blood to indicate the presence or severity of a disease or condition. Biomarkers can be used for early detection, diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring treatment effectiveness.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in bone health, immune function, and overall health. A blood test for Vitamin D measures the amount of this vitamin in the blood. The test is typically done to evaluate the levels of Vitamin D in the body and to help diagnose and monitor conditions such as vitamin D deficiency, osteoporosis, and rickets.

  • Nausea
  • Appetite
  • Weight
  • Energy
  • Heart

Active Vitamin B12

Active B12 is an essential biomarker revealing your body's functional vitamin B12 status. It comprises 6-30% of total B12 reserves. Active B12 testing provides a precise assessment of your body's real-time B12 levels, identifying deficiencies earlier than total B12 testing alone. Adequate active B12 is critical for energy production, red blood cell formation, nerve function, and brain health. Low active B12 serves as a reliable deficiency marker, indicating risks of anaemia and neurological issues over time if not addressed. Regular active B12 testing allows early detection of potential deficiencies, enabling timely steps to improve status before long-term health problems develop.

Total Testosterone

Total testosterone is a measure of the total amount of testosterone in the blood, including both bound and unbound testosterone. Testosterone is an important hormone that helps regulate many bodily functions such as building muscle, increasing body hair, and deepening the voice. It also plays a role in sexual function, mood, and bone health. Measuring total testosterone can help identify decreased bone density, risk of osteoporosis, causes of low sex drive, erectile dysfunction, and infertility.

Affects

  • Mood
  • Skin
  • Muscle
  • Menstrual Period

Free Testosterone

Free testosterone is a type of testosterone that is not bound to sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) or albumin. As a type of testosterone, it is made in the testicles in men and in the ovaries and adrenal glands in women, and it is responsible for the development of secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle mass, body hair, as well as sexual function. The results of a free testosterone test can provide information about a person's testosterone status and can help to identify the cause of low sex drive, erectile dysfunction, acne, and body hair growth.

Affects

  • Mood
  • Muscle
  • Skin
  • Weight
  • Fatigue

Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG)

Affects

  • Mood
  • Weight
  • Appetite
  • Skin

Affects

  • Mood
  • Energy
  • Skin
  • Breathing

Progesterone (P4)

Therefore, test can be taken to determine health conditions such as irregular periods, infertility, and menopause symptoms.

Affects

  • Energy
  • Mood
  • Skin
  • Menstrual Period

Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) is a hormone that controls your thyroid gland and the production of its hormones known as thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The TSH test signifies the efficiency and health of your thyroid gland, as well as if your body’s metabolism is regulated.

Affects

  • Energy
  • Fatigue
  • Weight
  • Skin

Free Thyroxine (FT4)

Free Thyroxine (FT4) is a hormone produced by the thyroid gland and its function is to regulate the metabolism and energy of your body. The FT4 test shows the amount of FT4 that is available for your body to use. If the level of FT4 is unbalanced, it means that your thyroid gland is underactive or overactive which are the conditions that must be treated.

Affects

  • Energy
  • Sleep
  • Mood
  • Weight

Free triiodothyronine (FT3)

Free Triiodothyronine (FT3) is one of two hormones that the thyroid gland produces, but it is also made by the conversion of T4 to T3 inside of cells of your body. The test of FT3 in combination with TSH and FT4 provides a complete picture of the health of your thyroid gland and regulation of your metabolism.

Affects

  • Nausea
  • Muscle
  • Breathing

Unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC)

hs-CRP (High Sensitivity)

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) is a protein produced by the liver and it represents an inflammation marker used to determine whether there is inflammation in your body or not. The levels of CRP vary in response to inflammation or tissue damage. The result of the hs-CRP test can show if there is a risk for some health problems such as diabetes, obesity, and heart diseases.
