Blood values we check

Our blood test provides detailed insights into your health and how to maintain it for as long as possible.

Hematological health

Provides crucial information about your blood components and helps to detect and monitor various health conditions like anemia, infections, and bleeding disorders.

This protein stores and helps to release iron. It is critical for iron metabolism, essential for red blood cell formation and oxygen transport. As an acute-phase protein, ferritin is also involved in body inflammatory responses. Ferritin levels provide insights into the body's iron storage and help diagnose conditions such as iron deficiency anemia, iron overload (hemochromatosis), inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies.

This measure indicates the percentage of transferrin carrying iron. Transferrin transports iron in the blood to cells that require it. Transferrin saturation is a crucial marker for assessing iron metabolism and provides insights into iron deficiency or iron overload in the body.

A vital mineral for hemoglobin production (responsible for red blood color) and oxygen transport. Measuring blood iron levels helps identify and monitor iron deficiency, iron deficiency anemia, or iron overload.

Inflammation and immune system

High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein is a sensitive marker for bodily inflammations. Produced in the liver, its blood concentration rises during inflammatory processes. The hsCRP test is specifically used to detect chronic, low-grade inflammations that often go unnoticed but are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases like heart attack or stroke.

A soluble glycoprotein from the liver that plays a central role in blood clotting. Converted by thrombin into fibrin, which forms a network to stabilize blood clots. Elevated fibrinogen levels may indicate an increased risk of arteriosclerosis, coronary artery disease, and other cardiovascular conditions.

An amino acid produced during methionine breakdown. Elevated homocysteine levels can be caused by vitamin B deficiency, genetic factors, or certain diseases. They are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, as they can promote inflammation, oxidative stress, and vessel damage, thereby increasing the risk for arteriosclerosis.

Recovery and electrolyte balance

A vital electrolyte outside of cells that regulates hydration, nerve and muscle function. Monitoring sodium levels aids in assessing dehydration, over-hydration, kidney function, or swelling.

A vital electrolyte playing a central role in cellular metabolism, neuromuscular function, and numerous processes like glucose absorption. Its level is regulated by hormones like aldosterone and cortisol. Abnormal potassium values can be indicators of kidney function disorders, hypertension, heart rhythm disturbances, or changes in muscle activity.

An essential mineral crucial for bone health, nerve function, muscle contraction, and blood clotting. Calcium testing helps assess bone metabolism, kidney and parathyroid function, and detect potential nutrient absorption disorders in the intestine.

Magnesium is a mineral essential for muscle and nerve function, bone health, and energy production. Examining magnesium levels helps identify deficiencies, monitor chronic conditions like diabetes and kidney diseases, evaluate electrolyte balance, and assess medication effects.

A mineral essential for bone and dental health. Low values can indicate malnutrition, certain kidney diseases, excessive antacid use, or vitamin D deficiency. High values are often associated with kidney diseases, hypoparathyroidism, or specific medications.

Cardiovascular health

Apolipoprotein B is a protein that transports fats like cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It is a major component of LDL and VLDL lipoproteins. High ApoB levels are a critical marker of increased risk for arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases.

Lipoprotein(a) is a genetic variant of LDL cholesterol. Elevated Lp(a) levels are associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases such as arteriosclerosis and heart attacks. Since Lp(a) levels are primarily determined by genetics, they cannot usually be lowered through lifestyle adjustments. However, understanding your Lp(a) levels allows you to optimize other cardiovascular risk factors through lifestyle adjustments or medication, helping to protect your heart health.

A type of fat found in the blood, triglycerides are a key component of the lipid profile. Elevated levels are linked to a higher risk of arteriosclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, and metabolic disorders like diabetes. Triglyceride levels are a critical marker of cardiovascular health and can be positively influenced by lifestyle factors like diet and exercise.

Low-density lipoprotein carries cholesterol from the liver to the body’s cells. However, high LDL levels can lead to fat deposits in the arteries (arteriosclerosis), increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.

High-density lipoprotein carries cholesterol from tissues and arteries back to the liver, where it is broken down and eliminated. High HDL levels are considered protective, as they reduce the risk of arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases.

Asymmetric Dimethylarginine is a marker for damage to the inner lining of blood vessels (endothelium). Elevated ADMA levels can significantly increase your risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Detoxification

This marker of kidney function is considered more accurate than creatinine. Elevated levels indicate impaired kidney function and are also associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer mortality, and overall mortality. As such, cystatin C is a critical parameter for assessing long-term health risks and longevity.

Gamma-glutamyl transferase is an enzyme primarily found in the liver. Elevated GGT levels may indicate liver damage, bile duct issues, or insulin resistance. High GGT levels are also associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

A yellow byproduct of red blood cell breakdown, bilirubin is processed by the liver and excreted through bile. Elevated bilirubin levels may point to issues with liver or bile ducts, or excessive red blood cell breakdown (hemolysis). As an indicator of liver function, bilirubin can indirectly provide insights into the liver's ability to process medications.

Urea is a waste product produced in the liver during protein metabolism and excreted through the kidneys. Urea levels provide information about kidney and liver function, hydration status, and protein intake.

Uric acid is produced by breaking down purines found in certain foods and the body. It is transported through the blood and excreted with urine. High uric acid levels can increase the risk of gout, arthritis, and some metabolic disorders.

Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant essential for detoxification, immune support, and protection against oxidative stress. The glutathione status (ratio of oxidized to reduced glutathione) reveals how effectively your body handles oxidative stress. A high proportion of oxidized glutathione indicates reduced antioxidant capacity and increased oxidative burden.

Metabolic health

Glucose is the primary simple sugar in carbohydrate metabolism and plays a crucial role in your body’s energy balance. It serves as the main energy source for your brain and muscles. A stable glucose level is a central biomarker for metabolic health and can be used alongside other factors to determine your longevity.

Insulin is a hormone produced in the pancreas that regulates glucose transport from the blood into body cells, providing them with energy. Optimal insulin sensitivity, where cells respond efficiently to insulin, is associated with improved metabolic health and potentially increased longevity.

The Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA) index is a calculated value based on fasting glucose and insulin levels. It helps detect early signs of insulin resistance and related metabolic disorders, often before type 2 diabetes develops. A high HOMA index is also associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis.

HbA1c measures the percentage of hemoglobin bound to glucose, reflecting the average blood sugar levels over the past two to three months. Unlike single blood glucose measurements, which can fluctuate throughout the day, HbA1c provides a more reliable assessment of long-term blood sugar status.

Hormones

The thyroid-stimulating hormone, produced by the pituitary gland, regulates the production of thyroid hormones. Testing TSH levels is often the first step in diagnosing thyroid issues, especially when symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, or mood swings are present.

The fT3 test measures the concentration of triiodothyronine (T3) in the blood. T3 is an active thyroid hormone that plays a central role in regulating metabolism, energy production, and overall bodily functions.

A free testosterone test measures the amount of biologically active testosterone in the blood that is not protein-bound. This test is often performed to check testosterone levels in cases of symptoms like changes in libido, mood swings, low energy, or reduced muscle mass. Low levels can indicate hypogonadism, causing fatigue, muscle weakness, and low libido. Elevated levels are often associated with conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or rare tumors.

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and an androgen produced mainly in the testes for men and the ovaries for women, as well as in the adrenal glands of both genders. It supports the development of male reproductive organs and secondary characteristics like muscle and bone mass. It also influences energy, mood, libido, and metabolism in both sexes. Low testosterone levels may lead to symptoms like muscle weakness, fat accumulation, mood changes, sexual dysfunction, and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Excess testosterone is linked to hyperandrogenism, cardiovascular issues, and hair loss.

Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin is a glycoprotein produced by the liver that binds to sex hormones like testosterone and estradiol in the blood. It regulates their availability and activity in the body. Measuring SHBG helps distinguish between total and free hormone levels, offering insight into the bioavailable testosterone.

A cortisol test measures levels of this adrenal hormone at specific times throughout the day. Cortisol is critical for regulating metabolism, blood pressure, and the body’s stress response. This test is used to evaluate adrenal function and stress regulation. It can also help diagnosing rare conditions like Cushing’s syndrome or Addison’s disease.

Nutrients

A fat-soluble vitamin playing a central role in calcium and phosphate regulation, significantly contributing to bone and dental health. It also plays a vital role in immune system regulation and influences various hormonal processes.

A water-soluble vitamin essential for DNA, RNA, and red blood cell production. An intracellular test measures folate levels within cells to assess nutrient status. Sufficient folate levels are essential for preventing anemia, especially macrocytic anemia, supporting cell division, and playing a vital role during pregnancy.

A water-soluble vitamin essential for numerous body functions. Deficiency can lead to anemia, neurological symptoms (such as tingling or memory issues), and long-term nerve damage. Addressing a deficiency may require dietary changes, supplements, or injections to restore vitamin B12 levels and alleviate symptoms.

An essential trace element that protects the body from oxidative stress, supports immune function and influences hormone regulation. A test can help identify selenium deficiencies or excess levels. European soils are often low in selenium, making it important to check selenium levels in these latitudes. Selenium deficiency can cause symptoms like muscle weakness, fatigue, weakened immune system, and joint pain. Excessive selenium may cause hair loss, brittle nails, and gastrointestinal issues.

This test measures the levels of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids in the blood and their ratio. A higher proportion of omega-3 fatty acids is associated with improved heart health and reduced inflammation, while a lower ratio may indicate increased inflammation and a higher risk of chronic diseases.
