What Is The Classic Nutrition and Lifestyle Test?

Our ultimate home finger-prick test gives you a general health check to proactively make healthy diet and lifestyle choices and understand your risk of developing a lifestyle-related disease. It includes checks for your thyroid, liver and kidney function, cholesterol status and nutritional markers, including ferritin, active B12 and vitamin D, to investigate symptoms like low energy and fatigue.

With your results, you can make informed lifestyle choices to see how diet and nutrition changes affect your overall health. While lifestyle-related diseases are common, they can often be improved through diet changes or supplements.

Can This Explain Why I Feel Tired?

Some lifestyle-related conditions, such as thyroid conditions and nutrient deficiencies, have similar symptoms, like feeling tired all the time or fatigued. Our test gives you a good overview of your health by measuring the level of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), active B12, vitamin D, and ferritin in your blood, which can all be causes of fatigue. Low vitamin D can also affect energy levels and immune function, making you more susceptible to colds and flu. Our doctors will always interpret your results and let you know what you should do next.

Does This Test Check For Anaemia?

Our test includes markers for active B12 and ferritin to give a good view of whether you may be anaemic. Active B12 is an important vitamin for healthy red blood cell production. Low levels of active B12 can lead to anaemia, which means that your blood becomes less efficient at delivering oxygen to the cells that need it.

Ferritin, the protein your body uses to store iron, is a better way of measuring your iron levels than simply measuring iron in your blood. That’s important because low iron may lead to iron deficiency anaemia.
