Functional Health Assessment Panel

This expanded panel of tests provides you with the most complete picture of your current and future health. It is a report card for your body. These tests help determine how well different parts of your body are working. Here's what each test can tell you:

1. CMP (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel): This test checks how well your kidneys and liver are working. It also looks at your blood sugar and electrolyte levels. It's like a check-up for your body's metabolism!

- What it can detect: Kidney problems, liver disease, diabetes, and electrolyte imbalances.

2. Thyroid Panel: This test checks how well your thyroid gland is working. Your thyroid gland helps control your metabolism, growth, and development.

- What it can detect: Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid).

3. CBC with Auto Differential with Platelets: This test checks the different types of cells in your blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.

- What it can detect: Anemia, infection, leukemia, and bleeding disorders.

4. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c): This test measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. It's like a snapshot of your blood sugar control!

- What it can detect: Diabetes, prediabetes, and how well your diabetes treatment is working.

5. Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]: This test measures a type of cholesterol in your blood called lipoprotein(a). High levels of Lp(a) can increase your risk of heart disease.

- What it can detect: Increased risk of heart disease and stroke.

6. Vitamin D 25 OH: This test checks your vitamin D levels. Vitamin D is essential for maintaining strong bones and supporting immune function.

- What it can detect: Vitamin D deficiency, which can lead to bone problems like rickets or osteoporosis.

7. Lipid Profile: This test checks the different types of fats (lipids) in your blood, including:

- Total Cholesterol: Measures the total amount of cholesterol in your blood.

- HDL (Good) Cholesterol: Helps remove excess cholesterol from your blood.

- LDL (Bad) Cholesterol: Can build up in your arteries and increase heart disease risk.

- Triglycerides: Measure the amount of fat in your blood.

- What it can detect: High cholesterol, increased risk of heart disease, and risk of stroke.

8. Urinalysis: This test is a two-step process:

• Chemical urinalysis via dipsticks testing for blood and other markers.
• Microscopic urine examination if the dipstick test detects abnormalities like blood.
• This testing helps guide diagnosis and treatment decisions by identifying infections, inflammation, kidney problems, or other underlying issues in the urinary tract or kidneys.

9. HS-CRP: A high sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) test is a blood test that measures the level of a protein called C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in your blood. CRP is produced by your liver in response to inflammation in your body.
