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.

Electrolytes

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.

Strength

Stress

Cortisol is a hormone our body produces in response to stress. It also plays a key role in regulating sleep, blood pressure, blood sugars, energy levels and helps to reduce inflammation.

Stress

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.
