Description

The Wellness Blood Panel is a foundational lab bundle designed to provide a broad overview of your overall health. By evaluating key biomarkers related to blood health, organ function, cholesterol levels, blood sugar regulation, and thyroid activity, this panel can help identify potential health concerns early and establish a baseline for future monitoring.

Biomarkers Included

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP)

Glucose

Measures blood sugar levels

Screens for diabetes and impaired glucose metabolism

Calcium

Important for bone health, muscle function, and nerve signaling

Sodium

Helps regulate fluid balance and nerve function

Potassium

Essential for heart rhythm, muscle contractions, and nerve activity

Chloride

Maintains fluid balance and acid-base status

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂/Bicarbonate)

Evaluates acid-base balance and metabolic function

Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)

Assesses kidney function and hydration status

Creatinine

Measures kidney filtration and overall kidney health

eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate)

Estimates how well the kidneys are filtering waste

Total Protein

Reflects nutritional status and liver function

Albumin

Major blood protein produced by the liver

Globulin

Includes proteins involved in immune function

A/G Ratio

Compares albumin to globulin levels

Total Bilirubin

Evaluates liver function and red blood cell breakdown

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP)

Assesses liver, bile duct, and bone health

AST (Aspartate Aminotransferase)

Liver and muscle enzyme

ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase)

Primary marker of liver cell health

Complete Blood Count (CBC)

White Blood Cell Count (WBC)

Evaluates immune system activity and infection risk

Red Blood Cell Count (RBC)

Measures oxygen-carrying blood cells

Hemoglobin

Protein that carries oxygen throughout the body

Hematocrit

Percentage of blood composed of red blood cells

MCV (Mean Corpuscular Volume)

Measures average red blood cell size

MCH (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin)

Measures average hemoglobin content per red blood cell

MCHC (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration)

Assesses hemoglobin concentration within red blood cells

RDW (Red Cell Distribution Width)

Evaluates variation in red blood cell size

Platelet Count

Assesses blood clotting ability

MPV (Mean Platelet Volume)

Measures average platelet size

Lipid Panel

Total Cholesterol

Overall cholesterol level

LDL Cholesterol

Often called "bad" cholesterol; elevated levels increase cardiovascular risk

HDL Cholesterol

Often called "good" cholesterol; helps remove excess cholesterol

Triglycerides

A form of stored fat associated with metabolic and cardiovascular health

Cholesterol/HDL Ratio

Additional marker of cardiovascular risk

Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c)

Hemoglobin A1C

Reflects average blood glucose levels over the previous 2–3 months

Screens for prediabetes and diabetes

Useful for monitoring long-term blood sugar control

Thyroid Function

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)

Primary screening test for thyroid function

Helps identify hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) and hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid)

Important for metabolism, energy, weight management, and mood regulation

Who Should Consider This Panel?

Individuals seeking a routine wellness evaluation

Those experiencing fatigue, weight changes, or general health concerns

Patients monitoring cardiovascular health, diabetes, or thyroid function

Individuals beginning a new diet, exercise, or wellness program

Anyone wanting baseline health information before symptoms develop

Fasting Requirements

Fasting is recommended for 8–12 hours before testing to provide the most accurate glucose and lipid (cholesterol) results. Water is encouraged during the fasting period.
