Comprehensive Laboratory Assessment to Uncover Underlying Vulnerabilities
This laboratory assessment involves analyzing your blood to identify any potential underlying vulnerabilities or predispositions to certain health conditions. This information can be crucial in understanding your risk factors for various diseases and conditions, as well as tailoring personalized preventive measures and treatments.
Autoimmune and Thyroid-Related Markers:
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone): A hormone that regulates thyroid function, assessing thyroid health and detecting conditions like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
T3, Free (Free Triiodothyronine): Measures the level of active thyroid hormone in your blood, important for assessing thyroid function and diagnosing thyroid disorders.
T4 Free (Free Thyroxine): Another thyroid hormone that aids in assessing thyroid function, typically measured alongside TSH and T3 for a comprehensive evaluation.
Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPO): Detects antibodies against thyroid peroxidase, often elevated in autoimmune thyroid disorders like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Thyroglobulin Antibodies: Measures antibodies against thyroglobulin, a protein produced by the thyroid gland, often elevated in autoimmune thyroid disorders or thyroid cancer.
Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors:
Lipid Panel, Cardio IQ®: Measures cholesterol levels, including total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides, to assess cardiovascular risk.
OxLDL (Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein): Measures OxLDL, a type of LDL cholesterol associated with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease risk.
Cardio IQ® Lipoprotein Fractionation, Ion Mobility: An advanced lipoprotein profile that assesses various lipoprotein subclasses and particle sizes, providing detailed insights into cardiovascular risk.
Cardio IQ® hs-CRP (High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein): A marker of inflammation in the body, indicating an increased risk of heart disease and other inflammatory conditions when elevated.
Cardio IQ® Apolipoprotein B: Measures Apolipoprotein B levels, found in LDL particles, offering additional information about cardiovascular risk.
Blood Composition and Function:
CBC (Complete Blood Count) – includes Differential and Platelets: Evaluates various blood components, such as red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, providing insights into overall health and potential conditions like anemia or infection.
Metabolism and Blood Sugar Control:
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel: Assesses metabolism, including electrolyte balance, kidney function, and blood sugar levels, with tests for glucose, calcium, electrolytes, and kidney function markers.
Glycosylated Hemoglobin Test: Measures average blood sugar levels over the past few months, crucial for monitoring long-term blood sugar control in individuals with diabetes.
Cardio IQ® Insulin: Measures insulin levels in your blood, valuable for evaluating insulin resistance and diabetes risk.
Nutrient Levels:
Cardio IQ® Vitamin D, 25-Hydroxy: Measures vitamin D levels, essential for bone health, immune function, and overall well-being.
OmegaCheck: Assesses levels of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, critical for heart health and inflammation management.
Magnesium: Measures magnesium levels, an essential mineral important for muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and bone health.
Liver and Kidney Function:
Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT): Detects elevated GGT levels, which may indicate liver or bile duct problems, alcohol use, or other conditions.
Microalbumin, Random Urine with Creatinine: Assesses kidney function by measuring microalbumin levels in a urine sample, especially relevant for early kidney damage detection in diabetes patients.
These laboratory tests collectively offer a comprehensive assessment of various aspects of your health, aiding in the early detection and management of health conditions, including thyroid disorders, cardiovascular risk factors, diabetes, and nutrient deficiencies.
Personalized Treatment Plan and Recommendations
