Hormones

1. Testosterone (free and total) (LC/MS): Vital for muscle mass, bone density, and sex drive — It makes effort feel good. This testing method utilizes Liquid Chromatography + Mass Spectroscopy (LCMS) to give a far more accurate result than traditional assays that most companies use. Free testosterone provides the most accurate estimate of how much testosterone is actually available.
2. Estradiol (LC/MS): Important for reproductive and sexual health. It also helps protect and build bone mass. This testing method utilizes Liquid Chromatography + Mass Spectroscopy (LCMS) to give a far more accurate result than traditional assays that most companies use.
3. Cortisol: Although it is known as the stress hormone, a better description is “daytime regulation and energy hormone”. It has many functions including regulating blood sugar, metabolism, inflammation, and it can also limit bone and muscle growth.
4. DHEA Sulfate: Helps produce other hormones, including testosterone and estrogen.
5. Progesterone: Crucial for menstrual cycle regulation and pregnancy. It can also convert to important progestogenic neurosteroid hormones (allopregnanolone and isoallopregnanolone), which aid with relaxation and sleep via GABA and other receptors.
6. LH and FSH: Pituitary hormones that regulate hormones that help control puberty, fertility, and sex hormone production. FSH stimulates egg or sperm production, while LH triggers ovulation and testosterone release.
7. Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG): SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) is a protein that carries sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen in the blood and helps to regulate their tissue availability and metabolism.

Metabolism

1. Comprehensive Metabolic Panel: Includes 14 biomarkers to test kidney and liver function, blood sugar levels, and electrolyte balance.

Thyroid

1. TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone): Regulates thyroid function. This is the signal from the brain to the thyroid gland.
2. Thyroxine (T4) Free, Direct: The main hormone produced by the thyroid gland, precursor to T3.

Diabetes Risk

1. Insulin: Hormone that moves glucose into cells. Higher levels can indicate insulin resistance.

Nutrition and Anemia

1. Complete Blood Cell (CBC) report: This test counts the different types of cells in your blood, like red blood cells (carry oxygen), white blood cells (fight infection), and platelets (help stop bleeding).
2. Iron Serum, TIBC (Total Iron-Binding Capacity): Evaluates circulating iron and the blood’s capacity to bind and transport it — useful for assessing iron deficiency or overload.

Cardiac Health

1. Lipid panel: Provides information about lipoproteins and triglycerides which are commonly known as “cholesterol.”
2. C-Reactive Protein (CRP): A nonspecific marker of inflammation that can rise with poor diet quality, oxidative stress, or some chronic medical conditions. Useful for assessing how health conditions, nutrition, and lifestyle factors impact overall inflammatory status.
3. Apolipoprotein B: This test shows how many “bad cholesterol” particles (from LDL and similar types) are in your blood. Higher ApoB levels may mean a higher risk for heart disease.
