Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world, but it can be prevented. Dyslipidemia (excess of triglycerides and cholesterol in blood) is one of the most important risk factors. High levels can effectively be controlled through diet and exercise in most people..
Increased markers of inflammation can be due to a number of causes including infections, injury and autoimmune processes, and can even be a risk factor for heart disease.
The purpose of diabetes related tests is to detect pre-diabetes and undiagnosed diabetes, as well as to monitor how well the diabetes is controlled. Diabetes occurs when the body’s ability to regulate the amount of blood sugar (glucose) is impaired. In type 1 diabetes the body is no longer able to produce insulin, and in the more common type 2 (which occurs more frequently with age) the body is no longer sensitive to its action. Lifestyle changes can prevent pre-diabetes from progressing to type 2 diabetes, as well as being effective in treatment.
The kidney profile consists of a set of tests used to evaluate the function of the kidneys. Kidneys remove waste products and excess water from the body. If not functioning properly, waste products can accumulate and make an individual unwell. There are a number of reasons that the kidneys may not be working correctly including diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
The liver is essential for digesting food as well as removing the body of toxic substances. If the liver is not functioning correctly it can make an individual unwell. There are a number of causes for a liver not functioning correctly including infection, alcohol use, and certain medications and herbal supplements.
Vitamins and minerals are essential nutrients that are required by the body to work properly and stay healthy. There are 13 main types of vitamins – such as Vitamin D, and a number of minerals such as iron. Ensuring an adequate amount of vitamins and minerals is crucial for the regulation of many bodily functions, such as the formation of blood cells, tissues, genetic material and hormones.
Uric acid is produced by our body from the degradation of purines, compounds found in food and drinks, especially meat, seafood and beer. Chronically elevated levels of uric acid in the blood can result in the formation of needle-like crystals in the joints, which causes gout attacks. When left untreated, these crystals can also deposit in soft tissues or produce kidney stones. For men taking this test, PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) levels are also included. PSA is a protein produced by the prostate. High levels are often associated with prostate cancer. Increased age, prostate size, infection or inflammation, as well as vigorous exercise can also cause the level of PSA in the blood to rise.
There are 3 main types of cells in the blood – platelets (important for stopping bleeding), white cells (to fight infection) and red cells (carries oxygen around the body). A full blood count provides information about these cells. For example, if someone is feeling tired frequently, the blood status can determine whether anaemia (low red cells) is a cause for this.
