What We Test
IRON DEFICIENCY
Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in the body and is the most useful indicator of iron deficiency as stores can be decreased before any blood iron levels are low. This test can also indicate if blood iron stores are too high. If your body is storing too much or too little iron this requires follow up testing from your GP.
VITAMIN B12
Vitamin B12 has many roles in your body. It plays a really important role in red blood cell production and helps your nervous system to function properly. Vitamin B12 levels are important for aspects including boosting your energy, improving your memory and helping to prevent heart disease.
VITAMIN D
Vitamin D is needed by the body for both physical and mental health, but is best known for making sure that bones and muscles (including your heart) are strong and growing properly. It also helps regulate the immune system. Vitamin D deficiency is related to conditions such as diabetes, heart disease and certain cancers. The development or worsening of mental health conditions, such as depression and low mood has also been linked to inadequate levels of vitamin D.
LIVER FUNCTION
- The liver is responsible for functions vital to life. The liver primarily processes nutrients from foods, removes toxins from the body and builds proteins. It breaks down fats, it converts glucose into energy stores and produces hormones. It also helps the body fight off infections.
WHAT WE MEASURE:
Albumin: a protein that is made in your liver. It helps to transport nutrients and hormones, as well as helps to grow and repair tissues in your body.
Globulin: a group of proteins made in your liver. Globulins ply an important role in liver function, blood clotting and fighting infections.
Total Protein: your albumin and globulin levels combined.
Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT):
Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP):
Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT):
Total Bilirubin:
