The PPP Wellness #3 Blood Test Panel includes:

Lipid Panel:

  • Cholesterol, Total: A measurement used to assess heart health. Cholesterol is required by your body to build healthy cells, but high cholesterol levels can increase your risk of heart disease.
  • Triglycerides: Surplus fats that are transported in the bloodstream are also responsible for providing energy to the body.
  • HDL Cholesterol: High-density lipoproteins, or "good" cholesterol, take cholesterol away from the cells and transport it back to the liver for removal or processing.
  • LDL Cholesterol: Low-density lipoproteins (calculation), or "bad" cholesterol, contain the highest percentage of cholesterol and are responsible for depositing cholesterol on the artery walls.
  • VLDL Cholesterol: Very low-density lipoproteins, (calculation), or "bad" cholesterol, contain the highest percentage of triglycerides, it helps cholesterol build up on the walls of arteries.

 

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP-14) with eGFR:

  • Glucose: The blood sugar level is the most direct test to screen for diabetes and is also used in diabetes management.

 

  • Kidney Profile:
    • Bun or Urea Nitrogen (BUN): An indicator of kidney function.  
    • Creatinine, Serum: An indicator of kidney function.  
    • Bun/Creatinine Ratio: Calculated by dividing the BUN by creatinine. This ratio can suggest conditions including dehydration or intestinal bleeding.
    • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR): Measures kidney function to determine kidney disease stage and detect early kidney damage.

 

  • Liver Panel:
    • Protein, Total: Assists in determining liver and kidney function and nutritional health.
    • Albumin Serum: One of the significant proteins essential for the healthy function of the liver and kidney. 
    • Globulin, Total: One of the major proteins that assist the blood to clot and adequately comprises infection-fighting antibodies. 
    • Albumin/Globulin Ratio: Calculated by dividing the albumin by globulin. When paired with other test results, this ratio can assist in the diagnosis of a variety of liver problems. 
    • Bilirubin, Total: Aids in detecting hepatitis, sickle cell, anemia, cirrhosis, alcohol, and drug abuse. High concentrations may result in jaundice.
    • Alkaline Phosphatase: A protein vital in detecting bone disorders and liver disease.
    • Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST or SGOT): An enzyme helpful in evaluating liver function. An elevated level is an indication of hepatitis. 
    • Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT): An enzyme helpful in identifying liver damage. Abnormalities may represent liver disease.

 

  • Fluids & Electrolytes:
    • Sodium: One of the major salts in body fluid. Sodium is essential in water balance and the electrical activity of nerves and muscles.
    • Potassium: Helps to control the nerves and muscles.
    • Chloride: Similar to sodium, it helps to maintain the body's electrolyte balance.
    • Carbon Dioxide, Total: Used to help detect, evaluate, and monitor electrolyte imbalances.
    • Calcium: A mineral essential for developing and maintaining healthy bones and teeth. It is also vital for the normal function of muscles, nerves, and blood clotting.

 

Hemoglobin A1c: Evaluates glucose levels in the blood over the last 2 to 3 months.

 

Homocysteine: Helps diagnose vitamin B6 and B12 deficiency, as well as a folate deficiency.

 

High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP): Assess the risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD).

 

Thyroid-stimulating Hormone (TSH): Assists in diagnosing and monitoring thyroid disorders, hypothyroidism, and female infertility problems. It is occasionally used to help evaluate pituitary gland function.

 

Free T3: Measures the free, unbound levels of triiodothyronine in the blood to screen for thyroid disorders.

 

Free T4: May be indicated when binding globulin (TBG) problems are perceived or when conventional test results appear inconsistent with clinical observations. It is normal in those with high thyroxine-binding globulin hormone binding who are euthyroid (i.e., free thyroxin should be normal in nonthyroidal diseases). It should also be normal in familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia.

 

Vitamin D 25-Hydroxy: Measures vitamin D levels to screen for a deficiency. It may also be ordered before an individual begins osteoporosis drug therapy. Low levels may indicate a dietary deficiency, malabsorption, or lack of exposure to sunlight.

 

Testosterone Total: Measures total testosterone hormone levels in the blood to detect an abnormal level or hormone imbalance.

 

Estradiol (E2): Measures the E2 hormone levels in the blood to detect an abnormal level or hormone imbalance.

 

Insulin Fasting: Used in diagnosing and the therapy of various disorders of carbohydrate metabolism, including diabetes mellitus and hypoglycemia.

 

NMR LipoProfile: An advanced cardiovascular diagnostic test that uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to provide a rapid, simultaneous, and direct measurement of LDL particle number and size of LDL particles and a direct measure of HDL and VLDL subclasses.

 

Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate (DHEA-S): Helps identify the source of excessive androgen hormones.

 

Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF-1): Helps diagnose the cause of growth abnormalities and evaluates pituitary gland function.
