High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) is an inflammation marker. Elevated levels can indicate inflammation, often linked to metabolic issues like insulin resistance, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. Monitoring hs-CRP helps in early detection and management of metabolic health risks.

Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is important for metabolic health as it provides a long-term snapshot of blood sugar levels. High HbA1c levels can signify poor glucose control, increasing risks for complications like diabetes, heart disease, and metabolic syndrome.

The liver is a metabolic powerhouse involved in nutrient processing, detoxification, and hormone regulation - and your liver health can have a big impact on your overall metabolic health. This test measures 7 key markers of liver health including bilirubin, alanine transferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Gamma-GT (GGT).

Cholesterol is vital for cell membrane integrity, hormone synthesis, and nutrient absorption. However, imbalanced levels - particularly high LDL and low HDL - can indicate metabolic dysfunction and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Creatinine is a marker of kidney function. Poor kidney function can have downstream effects on metabolism, impacting waste removal and electrolyte balance, which can in turn affect cardiovascular health.

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron and releases it when needed. While not directly a metabolic marker, high ferritin levels can indicate inflammation or liver dysfunction - conditions that affect metabolic health.
