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.

Mood & Hormonal Balance

Ever wondered if your mood is affected by your hormonal balance? Our liver contributes to the regulation of many hormones in the body, helping clear out any excess. If liver function is reduced there can be a build-up of excess hormones, which can affect your mood!

Electrolytes

A kidney function test will tell you lots about your electrolytes - important chemicals that regulate your hydration, blood pressure, blood acidity, nerve and muscle function, and nearly all chemical reactions in the body. Electrolytes are also essential minerals the body needs before, during and after exercise to maintain homeostasis, and maximise your workout.

Nutrients

Are you getting enough nutrients and vitamins via your diet and lifestyle? This panel tests for a range of vitamins which are all crucially important in bone, blood and overall health, as well as forming new cells and keeping the brain and nervous system healthy.

Strength

Does your body feel strong? An iron panel is included in this test and will provide insight into whether your iron levels are adequate, as iron deficiency can lead to extreme fatigue and weakness, alongside shortness of breath, dizziness and other symptoms that may be stopping you feeling your strongest.

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.

Bone Health

Vitamin D allows the body to absorb and retain calcium and phosphorus. These are both important minerals for building and maintaining strong bones. Vitamin D also helps to keep teeth healthy and muscles strong.

Power

Fluid Balance

Your kidneys are responsible for regulating fluid balance, and removing harmful toxins or excess fluid from the blood by producing urine. Fluid retention, high blood pressure, headaches and swelling in your hands, feet or other areas of the body are all possible signs of reduced kidney function.

How Long Will Your Test Take?

The test results will be available to you within 72 hours from arrival at the laboratory.

Once the laboratory receive your sample they will begin to process it the same day. When this is completed the raw data report is reviewed by our Doctor, who will also consider your answers to the personalised health questionnaire before releasing to you within your Living DNA portal.
