- Customers are responsible for shipping their samples to the laboratory.
The Cardio Metabolic test offers a clinically relevant evaluation to help define risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), progression toward Type 2 Diabetes, and inflammation. It measures lipoprotein size and density, cardiovascular risk stratification, triglycerides and traditional cholesterol screening.
It is recommended to take this test if you:
- Have a family history of heart disease or diabetes
- Have been diagnosed with heart disease or diabetes
- Are already taking cholesterol-lowering medications
- Have been diagnosed with Metabolic Syndrome (high blood pressure)
- Are overweight
Female Metabolic Syndrome hormone deficiency symptoms:
- Blood pressure high
- Hair – increased facial and body
- Numbness – feet or hands
- Triglycerides elevated
- Weight gain – waist
Male Metabolic Syndrome Hormone Deficiency Symptoms:
- Blood pressure high
- Cholesterol high
- Depressed
- Dizzy spells
- Erections decreased
- Irritable
- Muscle size decreased
- Muscle soreness
- Numbness – feet or hands
- Sugar cravings
- Triglycerides elevated
- Weight gain – waist
The CardioMetabolic Test kit is essential for several reasons:
- Cardiovascular Health Assessment: It provides a comprehensive evaluation of cardiovascular health by measuring factors like lipoprotein size, density, and traditional cholesterol markers.
- Diabetes Risk Evaluation: The test includes parameters like Insulin (Fasting), Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and Triglycerides, which are crucial in understanding the risk of Type 2 Diabetes.
- Inflammation Screening: High-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) is a key marker for inflammation associated with various health conditions, including cardiovascular diseases.
- Metabolic Syndrome Detection: The test helps identify metabolic syndrome, characterised by a cluster of conditions such as high blood pressure, elevated triglycerides, and obesity.
- Personal Health Monitoring: For individuals with a family history of heart disease or diabetes, the CardioMetabolic Test serves as a valuable monitoring tool.
- Convenient and Informative: The test can be performed at home using blood spot samples, with results delivered with graphical representation, numeric values, and expert comments.
- Timely Insight and Actionable Information: Timely detection of risk factors allows for proactive measures and lifestyle changes.
- Validated and Comprehensive Assessment: The test covers a range of essential markers validated for their role in cardiovascular health, diabetes risk, and inflammation.
By analysing these specific biomarkers, the CardioMetabolic Test becomes a pivotal tool in assessing overall health status, identifying potential risks, and guiding individuals toward appropriate interventions or preventive measures to promote a healthier lifestyle.
