Explore your Essential Body Health
This inclusive blood test investigates your health essentials, including heart health, immune system, blood sugar balance and diabetes risk, as well as liver function markers providing a foundational starting point to explore and improve your health and wellbeing.
Whats Included?
The Cardiac Risk blood test measures 9 important blood markers including cholesterol status, blood sugar balance (HbA1c) used to screen for diabetes, and C-Reactive protein which is a marker for inflammation.
Focus
Spikes and lows in blood sugar can be linked with lack of focus and energy. Unbalanced blood sugar can also lead to diabetes. The HbA1c marker in this test gives an indication of your blood sugar balance over the last 3 months.
Heart Health
Cholesterol is an essential component of our body, being used to make many different hormones, including oestrogen and testosterone. Having too much cholesterol however has been linked with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Inflammation
Inflammation affects our overall health, and importantly our heart health and blood cells. C-Reactive protein (CRP) is released by the liver if you have inflammation in the body, which could be a result of an injury, infection, a chronic health condition such as arthritis, an inflammatory illness, or repeated exposure to harmful substances like toxins in cigarette smoke.

I received my results really quickly for my health test and was impressed at how the results report was laid out. The analysis was very in depth and having individual descriptions for each health marker is not something I’ve seen before! Will definitely use again in the future for repeat testing.
