New ZealandExplore your digestive health
Want to know more about your diet and digestive health? See whether you are getting enough nutrients and vitamins from your food and investigate your iron levels and blood sugar balance to see how this could be impacting your overall health, including tiredness levels, weight and strength.
Whats Included?
The digestive health test includes 9 markers which may indicate whether food and nutrients are being digested and absorbed effectively. An HbA1c test will additionally look at how much sugar has been circulating in the blood over the previous 6-8 weeks, and importantly identify whether you would fall under the category of having normal blood sugar levels, or if these levels indicate pre-diabetes or diabetes.
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.
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.
Omega Balance
Achieving a balance of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids can help to improve heart health, stabilise blood pressure and reduce inflammation amongst other benefits. Omegas 3 & 6 must be consumed from the diet, as our body does not naturally produce them.

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.
