About the Total Health Focus – Full Body Health Check
The full body checkup package focuses on the comprehensive health status of the individual, across multiple parameters such as lipid profile, blood sugar, thyroid, liver, etc. It is a full body test that covers 65 testing parameters for optimal function analysis of the body’s systems. It is the ideal whole body check up package that provides deep insight into the performance of organs and deficiencies that need to be addressed.
Energy & Metabolism
Health checkup packages include metabolism testing, as understanding the energy breakdown efficiency of the body is essential to overall health. Metabolism is your body’s mechanism of processing sugar and fat for conversion into energy.
Optimal metabolism aids in maintaining healthy weight, providing a feeling of wellbeing, and ensuring adequate energy for the day. Lower metabolism can lead to issues with vitality, immunity problems, and other health markers being compromised.
HbA1c & Fasting Insulin –Chief source of energy for the body which if elevated slows down fat loss and is also a risk for diabetes
Cholesterol & Lipids – An essential fat that serves many vital functions such as energy creation and metabolism. It is the principal building block of many of our hormones including estrogen, testosterone etc. It also plays an important role in Vitamin D production in the body.
Thyroid Function – The overall measurement of the performance of the thyroid is important to check for issues with metabolism, energy, vitality, and weight.
Insulin Resistance
Beta Cell Function
– Measures the ability of pancreatic beta cells to produce insulin.
– Key indicator of pancreatic health and functionality.
– Essential for understanding the body’s insulin production capacity.
Insulin Sensitivity
– Assesses how effectively the body’s cells respond to insulin.
– Critical for identifying potential insulin resistance.
– Helps in evaluating the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and other metabolic disorders.
HOMA-IR Index
– Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance.
– Combines fasting blood glucose and insulin levels to estimate insulin resistance.
– Widely used and validated marker for assessing metabolic health.
Sex Hormones
Testosterone
Testosterone is an important hormone that regulates libido, muscle development, fertility, mood, and other essential bodily functions. It is a critical hormone for both men and women, which is why testing for it through full body checkup packages is important to do regularly.
Essential Vitamins
Optimal levels of Vitamins (D, B12) plays a very important role in strengthening your immune systems and cell repair.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is vital for bone health, immune system strengthening, energy, vitality, etc. and is vital to test for when experiencing symptoms.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 keeps the body’s blood and nerve cells activated, and plays a vital role in DNA development. It is also a key vitamin involved in healthy hair development.
Essential Minerals
Calcium keeps the immune system strong, helps heal wounds, and supports sex drive.
Iron Status
Iron is needed by the immune system and the body uses the free radical action of iron to attack some pathogens. Iron helps the immune system in another way by enhancing the ability of white blood cells to engulf and kill bacteria.
Ferritin is Oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood is essential for endurance exercise as well as for normal function of the nervous, behavioural, and immune systems.
Cardiac Risk Markers
Creatine Kinase / CRP / Hs-CRP / Homocysteine helps to diagnose conditions associated with acute and chronic inflammation including infections and autoimmune disorders. Inflammation accelerates ageing and decreases vitality
Lipoprotein (a), Apolipoprotein (A1), Apolipoprotein (B), Apo B: Apo A1 Ratio are the test is used to check for risk of stroke, heart attack, or other heart diseases.
Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) is the primary protein component of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) is the primary protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Elevated ApoB and decreased ApoA1 are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Proteins
Albumin/Globulin/Total Protein Main carrier proteins in the blood and binds to key substances such as free fatty acids, testosterone and essential nutrient
Organ Health
The liver is a vital organ and some of the primary functions include metabolism of fat, proteins & carbs, blood detoxification & purification, storage of glycogen and micronutrients. Hence liver is important for energy regulation, metabolism and immunity. It also metabolizes drugs and regulates body cholesterol.
Kidney function/Liver function – The body needs a steady source of glucose and natural energy, which is why the kidney and the liver play an important role in overall vitality. A full body checkup should always include kidney function and liver tests.
