Biomarkers

Globulin

Globulin is a group of proteins produced by the liver and the immune system. These proteins play a crucial role in maintaining overall health by supporting the body’s ability to fight infections and germs. Additionally, globulin is essential for blood clotting, helping to prevent excessive bleeding from injuries.

Total Protein

Total Protein measures the combined levels of two major classes of proteins in the blood: albumin and globulin. Albumin plays a key role in maintaining proper fluid balance by preventing blood fluid from leaking into surrounding tissues. Globulin, produced by both the liver and the immune system, helps strengthen the immune response by combating germs and infections.

Total Cholesterol

Total cholesterol measures the overall amount of cholesterol in your blood, including both HDL (“good” cholesterol) and LDL (“bad” cholesterol). Cholesterol is produced in the liver and plays a vital role in several essential bodily functions, such as the production of vitamin D, bile, and the formation of cell membranes in all the body’s cells. Additionally, cholesterol helps transport fatty acids through the bloodstream. Monitoring cholesterol levels is an important indicator of heart health and can help identify predispositions to cardiovascular conditions, including heart disease and heart attacks.

HDL Cholesterol

High-density lipoprotein (HDL), often called “good cholesterol,” plays a vital role in maintaining heart and blood vessel health. It helps remove excess cholesterol from your body, transporting it to the liver for processing. HDL also offers anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, further protecting your cardiovascular system.

Maintaining optimal HDL levels is essential for overall health. With the Welzo HDL Test, you can quickly identify your HDL levels and receive actionable insights to help improve and boost them. Take control of your health today—start with understanding your HDL.

LDL Cholesterol

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is responsible for transporting fats like triglycerides throughout the body. While it plays an essential role, LDL is often labeled the “bad” cholesterol. Elevated LDL levels can significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular problems, such as heart disease and heart attacks. This is because excess LDL can cause fatty deposits to build up on artery walls, a condition known as atherosclerosis, which narrows and stiffens the arteries over time.

Hba1c

Glycated hemoglobin, commonly known as HbA1c, is a reliable marker for measuring long-term blood glucose (sugar) levels. Hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells, is responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. When glucose enters the bloodstream, it binds to hemoglobin, and because red blood cells have an average lifespan of about 14 weeks, HbA1c levels reflect your average blood sugar levels over a 3-month period. This makes HbA1c testing especially useful for monitoring diabetes and assessing the risk of developing prediabetes, offering a more comprehensive view of glucose control than short-term blood sugar tests.

Ferritin

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in the body, playing a crucial role in maintaining adequate iron levels. Iron is essential for delivering oxygen to muscles, enabling them to generate the energy required for proper function. Ferritin acts as a reservoir, releasing iron when the body needs it. While ferritin is primarily stored within cells, it is most commonly found in the liver. Monitoring ferritin levels is important to ensure the body has sufficient iron storage. Without proper ferritin levels, iron can be depleted too quickly, potentially leading to deficiencies.

Vitamin B12 total

Vitamin B12 is a vitamin that’s essential for many functions in your body, including red blood cell production and nerve function. Vitamin B12 can be found in food, supplements, and fortified foods. If you don’t get enough vitamin B12, you may develop anaemia or nerve damage. A normal vitamin B12 level is 200 to 900 ng/mL. If you have a low vitamin B12 level, your doctor may recommend that you take a supplement or eat foods that are fortified with vitamin B12.

Albumin

Albumin is a key protein found in blood plasma, playing a crucial role in binding substances, similar to SHBG. Produced by the liver, albumin helps regulate fluid balance by preventing the leakage of fluid from blood vessels into surrounding tissues. Additionally, albumin levels can serve as an indicator of liver or kidney function, as abnormal levels may signal potential health issues in these organs.

Alkaline Phosphate (ALP)

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme present in several organs, including the liver, kidneys, bones, and digestive system. Elevated ALP levels in the bloodstream, above the normal reference range, can indicate underlying conditions such as liver disease or bone disorders.

Triglycerides

Triglycerides are a blood fat playing an essential part in the healthy function of your body. Triglycerides are the body’s primary storage method for fat and can be used as an energy source. Triglycerides are created in the liver, and while they are essential for energy and fat storage, having elevated levels of triglycerides can lead to cardiovascular issues. Therefore it is crucial to monitor your triglycerides when checking overall cholesterol levels.

HDL % of total

HDL (high-density lipoprotein) percentage of total calculates the amount of HDL you have compared to your total cholesterol level. This specific test biomarker assesses your cardiovascular risk by calculating the total amount of ‘good’ vs ‘bad’ and total cholesterol you have in your blood. Doctors and heart disease assessment calculators use this % of the total to evaluate your overall cardiovascular health.

Non HDL Cholesterol

In addition to measuring your HDL and LDL cholesterol levels, we will also assess your non-HDL cholesterol. This value includes all the harmful cholesterol in your blood and serves as a key indicator for evaluating your cardiovascular health. Non-HDL cholesterol levels should typically be below 4 mmol/L. Monitoring your HDL and LDL levels allows us to track the effects of any dietary and lifestyle changes, helping you optimise your health and well-being based on your individual cholesterol biomarkers.

Iron

Iron is a mineral found within the blood, and is needed to help create haemoglobin which is a protein in the blood responsible for the transport of oxygen within the body’s blood cells. If the body does not have enough haemoglobin, the muscles do not get enough oxygen and cannot work properly. It is important for people to have the correct amount of iron otherwise they will feel more tired and become Anaemic. The body’s iron stores are sourced from one’s diet and from the breakdown and turnover of red blood cells. When a test reveals low iron levels, a change in diet or added supplements can be used for treatment.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is crucial for various bodily functions, particularly for maintaining healthy bones and muscles. It can be obtained through foods, supplements, and fortified products. A deficiency in vitamin D may lead to conditions like osteoporosis and muscle weakness. The typical range for vitamin D levels is between 20 to 50 ng/mL. If your levels are low, we may recommend vitamin D supplements or suggest incorporating vitamin D-fortified foods into your diet to help restore optimal levels.

Folate B12

A folate, folic acid, or vitamin B test measures the levels of folate in your blood. Folate is crucial for the production and regulation of red blood cells. Normal folate levels typically range from 2.7 to 17 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). A result below 2.7 ng/mL may indicate a folate deficiency.
