Iron Status Profile - £79.00
5 biomarkers:
- Ferritin
- Iron
- Total iron binding concentration
- Transferrin saturation
- Unsaturated iron binding concentration
This profile checks levels of iron. Low iron can cause anaemia, a common issue causing a list of problems starting with fatigue, weakness and coldness which can then progress to more serious conditions. We also test for how well the body can absorb iron which may be reduced in conditions affecting the liver.
Sports Fitness Profile - £119.00
32 biomarkers:
- Liver function: albumin, globulin, total protein, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma GT (GGT), total bilirubin
- Cholesterol: total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), non-HDL cholesterol, triglyceride, total cholesterol : HDL ratio, HDL percentage
- Kidney function: urea, creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR)
- Iron: iron, total iron binding concentration, ferritin, unsaturated iron binding concentration, transferrin saturation
- Inflammation: high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hsCRP)
- Muscle and bone: creatine kinase, calcium, adjusted calcium
- Gout: urate (uric acid)
- Vitamins: vitamin D, vitamin B12
- Hormones: testosterone
- Blood cells: full blood count (with 5 part white cell differential)
This test is for anyone wanting information about their fitness for sports – either before starting a programme, or to monitor progress during one. It includes all the essential biomarkers that are of interest to a sports person to ensure you are operating at peak condition and includes cholesterol, inflammation, vitamins and testosterone.
Sports Hormone Profile - £159.00
19 biomarkers:
- Liver function: albumin, globulin, total protein, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma GT (GGT), total bilirubin
- Thyroid: thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free T4 (thyroxine)
- Hormones: oestradiol, follicular stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), prolactin, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), testosterone, free testosterone calculation, DHEA-sulphate, free androgen index
This profile is for anyone wanting information about their hormones and related systems that may be affected by their sporting activities or supplements.
Vitamin Profile - £119.00
3 biomarkers:
- Vitamin B12
- Vitamin D
- Folate (vitamin B9)
Checks your vitamin D, vitamin B9 (Folate) and vitamin B12 levels. These vitamins are all essential for your health and wellbeing. Vitamin B12 is particularly important for those on a plant-based diet. Low levels of Vitamin B12 and folate can have very severe effects on blood and overall health. Vitamin D is also very important for anyone living in the UK. Up to a quarter of the population is low in Vitamin D at the end of winter. Low levels can cause a long list of health problems including fatigue, bone & muscle pain, depression and more.

37 biomarkers:
- Liver function: albumin, globulin, total protein, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma GT (GGT), total bilirubin
- Cholesterol: total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), non-HDL cholesterol, triglyceride, total cholesterol : HDL ratio, HDL percentage
- Kidney function: urea, creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR)
- Iron studies: iron, ferritin, total iron binding concentration, unsaturated iron binding concentration, transferrin saturation
- Muscle and bone: creatine kinase, calcium, adjusted calcium
- Inflammation: high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hsCRP)
- Gout: urate (uric acid)
- Diabetes: HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin)
- Minerals: magnesium
- Vitamins: folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, vitamin D
- Thyroid function: thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free T4 (thyroxine)
- Hormones: testosterone
- Blood cells: full blood count (with 5 part white cell differential)
This comprehensive profile is perfect for any man wishing to have a full body check-up and screening for potential underlying diseases or conditions. It provides key information on your kidney, liver, heart & thyroid health and blood sugar; plus iron, calcium & testosterone hormone levels. It can tell whether you are anaemic, have a current infection and even if you are suffering from any underlying inflammation. It also includes a full blood count and vitamin profile.
