Baseline Internal Health & Function Screen

The most abundant protein made by your liver. It transports hormones and nutrients around the body and helps regulate fluid balance. Low albumin can reflect liver, kidney, gut or nutritional factors.

An enzyme that leaks into your blood when liver cells are stressed or damaged. Often looked at alongside ALT to give a clearer picture of liver health. Heavy exercise can also raise it temporarily.

An enzyme involved in both liver and bone activity. Levels naturally vary with age (higher in growing teens, post-fracture healing) and during pregnancy, as well as with liver function.

A liver enzyme that leaks into the blood when liver cells are stressed. Mildly raised ALT is common after heavy training, recent alcohol, certain medications, or fatty changes in the liver. Persistently high ALT is worth discussing with a GP.

A yellow pigment made when old red blood cells are broken down. Slightly raised bilirubin is often a harmless inherited pattern (Gilbert's syndrome); larger elevations can reflect liver or red blood cell processes.

The combined amount of albumin and globulin in your blood. It's a broad picture of protein status, used together with albumin and globulin to spot imbalances.

The most abundant mineral in your body, essential for building and maintaining strong bones and teeth. It also plays a critical role in muscle contractions, nerve signalling, and blood clotting, ensuring your heart and muscles function smoothly.

A calculated measurement that reveals the true amount of active calcium in your blood by adjusting for your protein (albumin) levels. It is a vital mineral required for building strong bones, enabling muscle contractions, and ensuring healthy nerve signalling

A waste product your muscles produce that's filtered out by your kidneys. Levels can shift with muscle mass, hydration status and protein intake, so very muscular people often sit slightly higher than the population average.

Another waste product cleared by the kidneys, this one from protein breakdown. It's affected by hydration, protein intake and kidney function.

A crucial mineral that acts as your body's fluid manager. It keeps the water levels inside and outside your cells perfectly balanced, whilst also playing a vital role in maintaining healthy blood pressure and ensuring your nerves and muscles communicate effectively.

An essential mineral that works closely with sodium to manage your body's fluid balance. It is crucial for keeping your cells properly hydrated, maintaining healthy blood pressure, and regulating the acidity (pH) of your blood.

An estimate of how efficiently your kidneys filter blood, calculated from your creatinine. Higher is generally better. It's the single most-used indicator of overall kidney functio n.

The primary sugar found in your blood and your body's main source of energy. It is absorbed from the food you eat and delivered to every cell to fuel your daily activities, keep your brain sharp, and power your muscles.
