A comprehensive panel for assessing athletic performance and recovery.
What markers are included?
What do these tests mean?
This panel provide a comprehensive overview of men’s health, helping your doctor diagnose conditions, monitor treatment, and assess overall well-being. Recommended annually.
Hormones
LH & FSH: Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) are crucial for reproductive health, influencing testosterone production and sperm development.
IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1): Reflects growth hormone levels and is important for growth and development.
Testosterone Free and Total LC/MS: Measures both free and total testosterone levels, essential for muscle mass, bone density, and overall male health.
Estradiol Sensitive LC/MS: Measures sensitive levels of estradiol, a form of estrogen, which is important even in males for bone health and regulating libido.
Prolactin: A hormone that can affect reproductive health and sexual function.
Cortisol: Known as the stress hormone, it helps regulate metabolism, blood sugar levels, and inflammation.
DHEA Sulfate: A precursor to sex hormones, important for overall hormonal balance.
Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG): A protein that binds to sex hormones, affecting their availability in the body.
PSA Free and Total (Prostate-Specific Antigen): Measures levels of PSA in the blood, used to screen for prostate health and potential prostate cancer.
Metabolism
Uric Acid: High levels can indicate gout or kidney stones.
GGT (Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase): An enzyme that indicates liver health and function.
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (14 markers): Includes tests for kidney and liver function, blood sugar levels, and electrolyte balance.
PTT Activated (Partial Thromboplastin Time): Measures blood clotting time, important for diagnosing bleeding disorders.
Creatine Kinase: An enzyme that indicates muscle damage or stress.
T4 Free and T3 Free: Measure levels of thyroid hormones, important for metabolism and energy regulation.
Diabetes Risk
HbA1c: Indicates average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months, used to diagnose and monitor diabetes.
Insulin: Measures insulin levels, important for diagnosing insulin resistance and diabetes.
Nutrition and Anemia
Phosphorus Serum: Important for bone health and energy production.
Magnesium Serum: Crucial for muscle and nerve function, blood sugar control, and bone health.
Complete Blood Cell (CBC) report: Provides information on red and white blood cells and platelets, indicating overall health and detecting conditions like anemia.
Iron Serum, TIBC (Total Iron-Binding Capacity), Ferritin: Measure iron levels and storage, important for diagnosing anemia and other conditions.
Reticulocyte Count: Measures young red blood cells, indicating bone marrow function.
Vitamin D: Essential for bone health and immune function.
Cardiac Health
Lipid Panel: Measures cholesterol levels, including LDL (bad cholesterol), HDL (good cholesterol), and triglycerides, important for assessing heart disease risk.
C-Reactive Protein (CRP): Indicates inflammation in the body, which can be a marker for heart disease.
Homocysteine: High levels can indicate a risk for heart disease and stroke.
Performance and Optimization
Carnitine: Supports energy production and fat metabolism, playing a role in muscle function and cellular health.
lp(a): A genetically influenced lipoprotein associated with cardiovascular risk.
Omega Quant Plus: Measures the proportion of omega-3 fatty acids in red blood cells, reflecting long-term dietary intake and its potential impact on cardiovascular, cognitive, and inflammatory health.
