Biological Age in years

Age Comparison

Our biological age test is a scientifically validated method that uses nine key blood markers to provide personalised insights into your health and ageing. Your biological age score is your biological age compared to your chronological (actual) age.

Biological Age

Too much oestradiol (oestrogen) is linked to acne, constipation, loss of sex drive, depression, weight gain, PMS, period pain, and thyroid dysfunction. The effects of low oestradiol are evident in menopause and include mood swings, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, night sweats and osteoporosis.

Oestradiol

The sex hormone produced mainly in the ovaries following ovulation and is a crucial part of the menstrual cycle. Progesterone helps to combat PMS and period pain issues, assists fertility and promotes calmness and quality of sleep.

Progesterone

Governs the menstrual cycle, peaking before ovulation. Raised LH can signal that a woman is not ovulating, is menopausal or that the hormones are not in balance. A high LH/FSH ratio can indicate Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).

Stimulates the ovary to mature an egg. High levels indicate poor ovarian reserves which means the quality and quantity of eggs may be low. This doesn’t necessarily mean that pregnancy is impossible, but it may be more difficult to achieve.

Normally this ratio is about 1:1 meaning FSH and LH levels in the blood are similar. In women with polycystic ovaries the LH to FSH ratio is often higher e.g. 2:1 or even 3:1

LH to FSH Ratio

High levels commonly seen in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) which can lead to difficulties in conceiving. Symptoms can include irregular periods, loss of hair from the head, excess facial and body hair, unexplained weight gain and acne.

Testosterone

The FAI is a calculated ratio used to estimate the amount of active, or 'free' testosterone in the bloodstream that is not bound to SHBG.

Free Androgen Index

SHBG is a protein that binds tightly to testosterone and oestradiol. Changes in SHBG can affect the amount of hormone available for use by the body's tissues.

SHBG

This hormone analysis includes an oestrogen, testosterone and progesterone test, as well as an LH and FSH test. These sex hormones (in conjunction with adrenal and thyroid hormones) exert powerful effects on the body. Knowing the function and levels of these hormones is a positive step in creating hormone balance and achieving wellbeing.

Female Hormone Panel

IGF-1 plays a role in maintaining tissue and organ function throughout adulthood. It helps regulate bone density, muscle mass, and cognitive function, and it has been implicated in the ageing process.

IGF-1

IGF-1 is involved in a wide range of physiological processes, including bone growth, muscle growth and repair, and the development of the nervous system. It also helps regulate metabolism, including glucose metabolism and fat metabolism.

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)

The cortisol test measures 'the stress hormone' cortisol which mobilises the body’s nutritional resources in stressful situations. Prolonged elevation of cortisol can cause fatigue, immune dysfunction, and impact sex hormones.

Cortisol

A long-acting adrenal hormone which regulates energy production, the immune system, brain chemistry, bone formation, muscle tone and libido. DHEA-S is converted by the body into testosterone and other sex hormones.

DHEA-S

Cortisol and DHEA-S play important roles in regulating physiological processes in the body. Cortisol has a catabolic effect which mobilises the body’s nutritional resources for fuel. DHEA-S has an opposing anabolic effect and converts food into living tissue. In order to achieve your fitness goals cortisol and DHEA-S must be in proper balance. 

Adrenal Function

Communicates with the thyroid gland to produce T3 and T4 which regulate metabolic functions. High TSH thyroid test levels indicates an underactive thyroid, and low levels an overactive thyroid.

Measures the thyroxine that is freely circulating and able to regulate metabolism. High FT4 thyroid test levels indicate an overactive thyroid, and low levels an underactive thyroid.

Measures the triiodothyronine that is freely circulating. High FT3 thyroid test levels indicate an overactive thyroid, and low levels an underactive thyroid.

Your thyroid gland produces hormones that regulate growth and energy expenditure. Thyroid disorders are quite common, and many people don’t have any symptoms at all. This thyroid test screens for the thyroid hormones that play a key role in regulating the body’s metabolism. 

Thyroid Function

If you have diabetes your body doesn't process glucose effectively.

Fasting glucose

A hormone produced by the pancreas that helps to control blood glucose levels and plays a role in controlling the levels of carbohydrates and fats stored in the body.

Fasting Insulin

The HOMA-IR score is a calculation used to assess insulin resistance. A higher score indicates a greater degree of insulin resistance, and is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

HOMA-IR Score

HbA1c measures the average blood sugar level over the past 2-3 months. The higher the percentage, the higher the average blood sugar level has been over the past 2-3 months.

HbA1c (DCCT)

HbA1c can be expressed as a percentage (DCCT unit) or as a value in mmol/mol (IFCC unit).

HbA1c (IFCC)

Insulin resistance can lead to difficulty losing weight, distinct abdominal fat, fatigue, bloating and sugar cravings. Identifying insulin resistance early and committing to lifestyle changes can ultimately help the progression to diabetes.

Metabolic Markers

Total cholesterol measures the combined amount of HDL and LDL cholesterol in the blood and is essential for cell structure, hormone production, and vitamin D metabolism.

Total Cholesterol

LDL cholesterol is often called “bad” cholesterol because high levels can lead to plaque buildup in arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease.

HDL cholesterol is often referred to as "good" cholesterol, as it helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream and can protect against the development of heart disease. 

Triglycerides are a form of stored fat used for energy. Elevated levels are linked to increased risk of cardiovascular and metabolic disease.

Triglycerides

VLDL is considered "bad" cholesterol because high levels can contribute to the buildup of plaque in the arteries. VLDL also has important functions in the body, such as providing energy to cells and helping to transport fat-soluble vitamins.

VLDL-C

Non-HDL cholesterol is considered an effective lipid measurement for assessing cardiovascular disease risk as it is believed to reflect levels of 'bad' cholesterol.

Non-HDL Cholesterol

Lipids and cholesterol are fat-like substances in your blood. Some are necessary for good health, but when you have a high level of cholesterol in your blood, a lot of it ends up being deposited in the walls of your arteries and other vital organs. Lifestyle choices including diet, exercise and alcohol intake can all influence cholesterol levels and your risk of developing heart disease. 

Cholesterol

Apo A is a protein carried in HDL ("good") cholesterol. It helps start the process for HDL to remove bad types of cholesterol from your body. In this way, apolipoprotein A can help to lower your risk for cardiovascular disease.

Apolipoprotein A1

Apo B containing lipoproteins are the ones most likely to enter the wall of the arteries. They are capable of trafficking cholesterol into the artery wall, and if present in increased numbers may be the main initiating factor in atherosclerosis. 

Apolipoprotein B

The apo B/apo A-1 ratio indicates the cholesterol balance between potentially atherogenic (bad) and antiatherogenic (good) particles. The ratio is strongly related to risk of cardiovascular disease.

ApoA1/ B Ratio

The apo B/apo A1 ratio indicates the cholesterol balance between potentially atherogenic (bad) and anti-atherogenic (good) particles. 

Apolipoprotein Ratio

Active vitamin B12 is the biologically active form of vitamin B12 that is essential for many physiological processes in the body, including the production of red blood cells, DNA synthesis, and nerve function.

Active Vitamin B12

Found naturally in food, such as green leafy vegetables. Folate (vitamin B9) plays a role in DNA creation and is important for the production of red blood cells.

Folate

Homocysteine is an amino acid involved in the methylation process. High levels can indicate a deficiency in vitamin B6, B12, or folate and are linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and blood vessel damage.

Homocysteine

Vitamin B12 and folate are essential for healthy methylation, a process your body uses for detoxification, energy, and gene regulation. Low B12 can lead to a buildup of homocysteine, which may affect heart, brain, and overall cellular health.

B Vitamins & Methylation

Iron measures the amount of circulating iron in your blood, which is essential for energy production, oxygen transport, and healthy red blood cell formation. Low or high levels can indicate iron deficiency, inflammation, or iron overload disorders such as haemochromatosis.

Iron

Transferrin is the main protein that binds and transports iron through your bloodstream, helping regulate how much iron is available to your cells. Levels may rise when your body needs more iron, such as in deficiency, or fall in inflammation or certain health conditions that affect protein production.

Transferrin/ TIBC

Iron saturation shows the percentage of iron bound to transferrin, your blood’s main iron transport protein. It helps identify whether your body has too little or too much available iron, supporting the diagnosis of iron deficiency, inflammation, or iron overload conditions.

Transferrin Saturation

Ferritin is a marker of iron stores in the body, and is used to assess iron status. Low levels can indicate iron deficiency, which is a common nutritional deficiency that can lead to anaemia, fatigue, and impaired immune function.

Ferritin

This simple iron test measures how much iron you have in your blood, as well as the amount of iron you have stored in your body. Iron levels are relevant to energy, blood cell health and overall wellbeing.

Iron Studies

Found in vegetables, fish, shellfish, red meat, grains, eggs, chicken, liver, garlic, brewer's yeast, wheat germ, and enriched breads. Helps protect cells from damage, and is needed for thyroid gland function.

Selenium

Found in organ meats, shellfish, chocolate, mushrooms, nuts, beans, and whole-grain cereals. Helps protect cells from damage, and is needed for forming bone and red blood cells.

Copper

Found in liver, eggs, seafood, red meats, oysters, certain seafood, milk products, eggs, beans, peas, lentils, nuts and whole grains. Needed for healthy skin, wound healing, and helps fight illnesses and infections.

Zinc

Copper-to-zinc ratio is a key marker of immune balance, inflammation, and antioxidant status. An imbalanced ratio may indicate oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, or nutrient imbalances.

Copper to Zinc ratio

Like vitamins, minerals are substances found in food that your body needs for growth and health. There are two kinds of minerals - macrominerals and trace minerals. Your body needs just small amounts of trace minerals which include iron, copper, zinc and selenium.

Trace Minerals

Although called a vitamin, vitamin D (25-OHD) is actually a steroid hormone which is activated by sunshine on the skin. It is essential for bone strength as it helps the intestines absorb calcium. 

Vitamin D

Calcium is important in building strong bones and teeth, but it also plays a key role in other functions including muscle contraction, nerve function, blood clotting, and enzyme function.

Calcium

Corrected calcium adjusts for changes in serum albumin levels, providing a more accurate measure of the biologically active form of calcium, and is therefore a better reflection of the body's calcium status.

Calcium (corrected)

If too much urate is produced or not enough is excreted, it can accumulate and lead to gout – an inflammation that occurs in joints.

Urate

Phosphate is a mineral which is essential for the formation of bones and teeth. It is also essential for many other cellular processes including energy metabolism and the formation of DNA and RNA. 

Phosphate

Magnesium and calcium work together closely to maintain strong bones, and magnesium deficiency has been associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis.

Magnesium

Calcium and vitamin D play a critical role in maintaining bone health. When you don’t get enough calcium, you increase your risk of developing osteoporosis and stress fractures. This blood test measures your total and corrected calcium levels, your vitamin D levels, and also checks for gout.

Bone Health

A high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) test measures low levels of CRP and may be used to help evaluate an individual for risk of cardiovascular disease

High sensitivity CRP

Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) is an indirect measure of the degree of inflammation present in the body. Increased blood levels of certain proteins (such as fibrinogen or immunoglobulins, which are increased in inflammation) increase the ESR.

LDH is an enzyme required during the process of turning sugar into energy for your cells. Only a small amount is usually detectable in the blood, however, when cells are damaged they release LDH into the bloodstream.

Lactate Dehydrogenase

Creatine kinase is an enzyme released into the blood when muscle cells are damaged. Persistently high levels after rest may indicate muscle strain or overtraining.

Creatine Kinase

Inadequate recovery from exercise or overtraining can be associated with inflammation and muscle damage. In addition to c-reactive protein and creatine kinase, this panel also measures homocysteine which is another recognised risk factor for cardiovascular disease, as well as osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s.

Inflammation

Responsible for carrying oxygen around the body. A high count can increase the risk of heart attack or stroke, whilst a low count can mean your body isn’t getting the oxygen it needs.

Red Blood Cell Count

A good measure of your blood's ability to carry oxygen throughout your body. Elevated haemoglobin can be an indicator of lung disease, whilst a low result indicates anaemia.

Haemoglobin

A measure of the percentage of red blood cells in the total blood volume. Elevated haematocrit can increase the risk of heart attack or stroke.

Haematocrit

MCV is a measure of the average size of the red blood cells. The MCV may be elevated in anaemia caused by vitamin B12 or folate deficiency. Whereas decreased MCV may be seen in iron deficiency anaemia for example.

MCH is a calculation of the average amount of oxygen-carrying haemoglobin inside a red blood cell. Large red blood cells tend to have a higher MCH, while small red cells would have a lower value.

MCHC is a calculation of the average concentration of haemoglobin inside a red cell. Decreased MCHC is seen in iron deficiency anaemia and conditions such as thalassaemia.

MCHC

RDW is a calculation of the variation in the size of your red blood cells. A high RDW value may indicate the presence of certain medical conditions, such as anaemia, liver disease, or vitamin B12 or folate deficiency. 

Responsible for fighting infection. A high count can indicate recent infection and even stress, whilst a low count can result from vitamin deficiencies, liver disease and immune diseases.

White Blood Cell Count

A type of white blood cell. Can increase in response to allergic disorders, inflammation of the skin and parasitic infections. They can also occur in response to some infections or to various bone marrow malignancies.

Eosinophils

A type of white blood cell. Can increase in response to infection as well as inflammatory disorders, and occasionally with some types of leukaemias. Decreased monocyte levels can indicate bone marrow injury or failure and some forms of leukaemia.

Monocytes

A type of white blood cell. Can increase with bacterial or viral infection, leukaemia, lymphoma, radiation therapy or acute illness. Decreased lymphocyte levels are common in later life but can also indicate steroid medication, stress, lupus and HIV infection.

Lymphocytes

A type of white blood cell. Can increase in response to bacterial infection, inflammatory disease, steroid medication, or more rarely leukaemia. Decreased neutrophil levels may be the result of severe infection or other conditions.

Neutrophils

Basophils are a type of white blood cell. Basophils can increase in cases of leukaemia, long-standing inflammation and hypersensitivity to food.

Basophils

Responsible for blood clotting and healing. A high count can indicate a risk of thrombosis, whilst a low count can lead to easy bruising.

Platelet Count

The full blood count measures red cells, white cells and platelets — foundational markers included in most health assessments. It is actually a group of tests that examine different parts of the blood. Results from the following tests provide the broadest picture of your health.

Full blood count with differential

Bilirubin tests are use to screen for or to detect and monitor liver disorders or haemolytic anaemia. 

Bilirubin

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme located mainly in the liver and the bones. High levels can indicate liver disease.

Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is an enzyme created mainly by the liver and the heart. High levels can indicate damage to your liver.

Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is an enzyme mainly produced by the liver. A good indicator of liver damage caused by alcohol, drugs or hepatitis.

Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is a liver enzyme which plays a key role in the metabolism of glutathione and the transport of amino acids. Elevated GGT levels can indicate liver dysfunction, bile duct issues, or excessive alcohol use.

Albumin is a blood protein that helps maintain fluid balance and transports nutrients and hormones. Low levels may indicate poor nutrition or underlying health issues.

Albumin

Total protein measures the amount of all proteins in the blood, which are essential for tissue structure, growth, and overall health.

Total Protein

Any of a group of simple proteins found in the blood.

Globulin

Your liver processes drugs and alcohol, filters toxic chemicals, stores vitamins and minerals, and makes bile, proteins and enzymes. This liver function test measures key liver enzymes and markers relevant to understanding your liver health.

Liver Function (LFTs)

Sodium is important for maintaining fluid balance in the body and for proper nerve and muscle function.

Sodium

Potassium is important for nerve and muscle function, including regulating heart rhythm, and is also involved in fluid balance.

Potassium

Chloride is important for maintaining fluid balance and for the proper functioning of the digestive system.

Chloride

Bicarbonate helps regulate the body’s acid–base (pH) balance. Abnormal levels can indicate problems with lung function, kidney function, or fluid and electrolyte balance.

Bicarbonate

A high concentration of this waste product can indicate dehydration or that your kidneys aren’t working properly.

Urea

A waste molecule generated from muscle metabolism, and an accurate marker of kidney function.

Creatinine

The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) measures how well your kidneys filter the wastes from your blood and is the best overall measure of kidney function.

eGFR

Your kidneys filter waste from your body and regulate salts in your blood. They also produce hormones and vitamins that direct cell activities in many organs and help to control blood pressure. Your kidneys filter waste and regulate salts in your blood. This panel measures key markers of kidney function.

Kidney Function

An enzyme produced by the pancreas which is released into the digestive tract to help digest fatty foods.

Lipase

An enzyme made mainly by the pancreas which is released from the pancreas into the digestive tract to help digest starch in our food.

Amylase

Proteins, fats, and carbohydrates are broken down by stomach acids, enzymes produced by the pancreas, and bile from the liver. This process also releases micronutrients. This blood test measures the levels of enzymes produced by the pancreas.

Pancreatic Function

Stool colour offers clues about digestion and nutrient absorption, with changes sometimes indicating bile flow issues, infections, or gut microbiome imbalances.

Stool Colour

Stool form reflects digestive efficiency, with abnormal shapes potentially indicating dehydration, inflammation, altered transit time, or microbiome imbalances.

Stool Form

Mucus in stool can signal gut irritation or inflammation; small amounts are normal, but frequent or large amounts may point to infections, IBS, or IBD.

Mucous

Faecal macroscopy examines the physical appearance of the stool, including colour, form, mucus content, and hidden (occult) blood. These visible features offer valuable insights into digestion, gut lining integrity, and the presence of irritation or inflammation. Changes in stool appearance can often be early signs of underlying digestive issues.
