This test is ideal if you want a complete picture of your overall health or haven't had a comprehensive checkup in a while. It helps detect early signs of common health issues like diabetes, thyroid problems, heart disease, liver or kidney dysfunction, anemia, and hormonal imbalances before they cause serious symptoms. Many people use this test for annual wellness screening, to investigate multiple unexplained symptoms, or to establish baseline health markers.
You should fast for 12-14 hours before your blood draw, meaning no food or drinks except water during this time. Stop taking biotin supplements at least 72 hours before testing, as they can interfere with results. Avoid ejaculation for 24 hours before the test for accurate PSA results. If you use testosterone cream, don't apply it to your arm for 24 hours before the draw. Discuss any medications with your doctor, particularly those affecting uric acid levels like diuretics. The sample collection takes about 15-20 minutes.
This comprehensive panel evaluates metabolic health through glucose, insulin, and hemoglobin A1c to detect diabetes risk, along with a complete lipid panel for cardiovascular assessment. It checks thyroid function (TSH, Free T3, Free T4, thyroid antibodies) to identify causes of weight changes and fatigue, measures sex hormones (testosterone, estradiol, FSH, LH, prolactin, SHBG) affecting energy and mood, and includes growth hormone markers (IGF-1). The test also assesses liver and kidney function, complete blood count for anemia or infection, vitamin levels (B12, folate, D), iron status, inflammation markers (CRP, sed rate), clotting function, and cancer screening markers (PSA for men, CA-125 for women). Together, these measurements provide a complete health snapshot across all major body systems.
What this means
Your Hemoglobin A1c is slightly elevated, indicating your average blood sugar over the past 2-3 months has been higher than ideal. This level falls into the prediabetes range, meaning you're at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes if lifestyle changes aren't made. The good news is that this stage is reversible with diet and exercise modifications.
Recommended actions
Reduce refined carbohydrates and added sugars in your diet
