Energy & Metabolism
Metabolism is your body’s way of chemically processing sugar and fat for use within the body as energy. Metabolism levels are also a good marker of someone’s healthy weight and energy balance within the body. A poor metabolism can show signs of undesirable weight fluctuations, chronic fatigue, and inability to process food into energy efficiently.
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 and also plays a vital role in Vit D production.
Thyroid Function – Your thyroid plays a vital function in controlling metabolism, specifically through T4 (thyroxine) and T3 (triiodothyronine). Key functions such as energy, weight, and temperature control can be impacted by the thyroid.
