You train hard, but you want to train smart
You want a detailed look at your sports nutrition
You want to understand if your hormones are helping or hindering your gains
You want to keep track of your general health

This venous test (which means that blood must be taken from a vein in your arm) offers an advanced understanding of key biomarkers which can affect your fitness goals, whether in the gym or on the sports field. With insights into muscle mass (testosterone), anaemia and low energy (iron status and vitamin B12), as well as stress and over-training (cortisol), it also includes tests for important nutritional markers which, if low, can affect your training progress.

You can take this test as a snap-shot at any time, but it is designed to be tracked over time so that you can begin to understand what works for you.

With 30 different biomarkers included, this profile also includes markers for general health such as liver and kidney function, cholesterol and diabetes.

This test must be taken between 8am and 10am. If you are tracking your results over time then it is vital that you always have your blood taken at the same time. Fast 8 - 10 hrs prior to sample being taken. Active B12 levels can be affected by use of vitamin B12 supplements. If you are taking an oral supplement then we recommend not taking it for one week prior to the test to ensure an accurate measure of your B12 levels. If vitamin B12 is being prescribed to you by your doctor then you should discuss with them how long to omit B12 supplements for.
