Faecal Occult Blood Loading...

Tests for hidden blood in stool that isn't visible. Used as a bowel cancer screening test. Positive results require further investigation with colonoscopy.

An amino acid linked to cardiovascular disease risk when elevated. High levels may indicate B vitamin deficiency (B12, folate, B6) or genetic factors like MTHFR variants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about organ health testing

Fasting is required for the Lipid Profile, Diabetes Status, and Metabolic Syndrome panels. You should fast for 10-14 hours before the blood draw (water is allowed). Other panels like Liver Health, Kidney Health, and Thyroid do not require fasting. Your test kit will include specific instructions.
If your results show abnormalities, we recommend consulting with your GP or one of our partner physicians for further evaluation. Some variations may be normal for you or require lifestyle changes, while others may need medical investigation. Our results reports include interpretation guidance and when to seek medical advice.
For general health monitoring, annual testing is typically sufficient. If you're tracking specific conditions or making lifestyle changes, retesting every 3-6 months may be appropriate. Those on medication affecting organ function (statins, metformin, etc.) may benefit from quarterly monitoring. Your healthcare provider can advise on appropriate intervals.
Yes, many medications can affect blood test results. Statins lower cholesterol (expected), while some can elevate liver enzymes. NSAIDs can affect kidney markers. Biotin supplements can interfere with some tests. Continue taking prescribed medications unless specifically advised otherwise, but inform us of all medications and supplements when ordering.
All blood samples are collected at our partner clinics by trained phlebotomists using standard venous blood draw techniques. This ensures adequate sample volume and quality for accurate testing. Appointments are convenient and quick, typically taking just 10-15 minutes.
