What we measure

The biomarkers in this panel.

The average size of your red blood cells.

Why it matters

Cell size can hint at iron, B12 or folate levels.

Full blood count

A marker linked to both liver and bone health.

Why it matters

Levels can shift when the liver is under strain or when bones are remodelling more than usual.

Liver health

Alanine Aminotransferase

A liver health marker.

Why it matters

Higher levels can be a sign your liver is under stress, often linked to diet, alcohol, or fatty liver.

Liver health

Aspartate Aminotransferase

Another liver health marker.

Why it matters

Read alongside ALT, it gives extra insight into how your liver and muscles are coping.

Liver health

Calcium

A mineral important for bones, muscles and nerves.

Why it matters

Useful for understanding bone health and overall nutrition.

Kidney health

Potassium

An electrolyte your heart and muscles rely on.

Why it matters

Both low and high levels can affect how you feel.

Bone and kidney

Phosphate

A mineral that works with calcium for bones and energy.

Why it matters

Levels can shift with diet, kidney function or bone activity.

Kidney health

Sodium
