| |  This test is used for the early detection of kidney disease occurring as a complication of diabetes or hypertension (high blood pressure). It is recommended to get the ACR test once diabetes or hypertension has been diagnosed, and those with diabetes or hypertension need their ACR levels to be checked at least once per year or more frequently if high ACR levels are detected. |
| | | There are various reasons you may want to know your blood group. For example, you may want to know what type of blood you can receive if you ever needed a blood transfusion– If you had group A blood, you can receive group A and O blood; If you had group B blood, you can receive group B and O blood; If you had group AB blood, you can receive groups A,B,AB and O blood; If you had group O blood, you can only receive group O blood. |

| | A comprehensive evaluation of cardiovascular risk, measuring various important markers such as cholesterol, triglycerides, and homocysteine, as well as key inflammatory markers. This unique test combines both traditional and cutting-edge indicators of cardiovascular health that can often be corrected with nutritional intervention.
This test analyzes blood for levels of HDL, LDL, and total cholesterol, ratios, triglycerides, lipoprotein(a), homocysteine, apolipoprotein A1, apolipoprotein B, fibrinogen, and C-reactive protein. |

| |  Symptoms of food intolerance can take up to 72 hours to appear after eating the trigger food or group of foods. On average people who suffer from food intolerances* usually have around 4 or 5 trigger foods.
The term ‘food intolerance’ and ‘food allergy’ are often confused and are two very different things.
Genuine food allergy is relatively rare. Only about 2% of the adult population are affected. A food allergy is a swift response by the body’s immune system to a specific food. In this type of reaction, the body’s immune system mistakes a food for an ‘invader’ which often results in a rapid allergic reaction often within minutes, but generally within a maximum of two hours. This type of allergic reaction is commonly associated with reactions to peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs and seafood.
Food intolerance is quite different to food allergy and whilst the symptoms can impact the person’s quality of life, they are not life threatening. Food intolerances are much more common than food allergies.
When foods and drinks are digested the proteins within them are broken down into smaller fragments for easy absorption into the body. Larger fragments can pass through without breaking down, and sometimes the body reacts by attacking them using antibodies called Immunoglobulin G’s (IgG).

It also includes comprehensive support material to help your clients make lifestyle changes to reduce their risk. A high homocysteine level has been associated with a higher risk of developing heart disease, stroke, Alzheimers and dementia.
- Our clinically proven test is carried out by our expert laboratory, who will assess your client’s levels of homocysteine with a simple home-to-laboratory blood test
- There are an increasing number of studies that show homocysteine to be a predictor of potential health problems, including heart disease, stroke, Alzheimers, dementia, infertility, declining memory and lowered mood.
- Lorisian’s test is the UK’s only finger prick homocysteine test on the market
Homocysteine measurement does not give a definitive diagnosis of increased risk of these conditions and any symptoms or concerns must be checked out by a doctor before carrying out the test. |

Hormones: The Key to Vitality, Sex Drive, and Aging.
The Male Hormonal Health test provides a focused overview of hormonal balance in men.
Using a single serum sample, this test evaluates dynamics of sex steroid metabolism that can profoundly affect a man's health throughout his lifetime.
The test focuses specifically on DHEA, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG), Estradiol, Testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1), and Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA).
Gaining information about the body's hormone production can provide an insight to help maintain good health.
Hormones play a powerful role in the body's regulatory system. Proper hormonal balance is essential to maintain optimal health. Testosterone, for example, enhances sex drive, strengthens bone and muscle tissue, and reduces fat production. In addition, it is a natural energy booster that protects against the onset of depression and heart disease. Other male hormonal deficiencies or excesses affect sleep, metabolism, and the ability to fight disease. |
|
| |  This profile checks for the full range of male hormonesand is very useful for giving information about fertility.It is also covers a full range of hormones relevant tosports and testosterone supplementation. |
| | |  The test can be used for diagnostic or preventive purpose. The test can also give insight into the effect of dietary changes/supplementation. The test gives information about the levels at the moment of blood taking. All elements, with can be measured in whole blood.

Erythrocyte and whole blood toxic element levels are good indicators of body pools of essential elements as well as the toxic elements aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, lead,* and mercury. This test is an accurate way of determining whole body status of potassium and selenium.
Whole Blood generally reflects increased or recent exposure to toxic elements. This test shows levels of cadmium, lead and mercury. Nutrient elements are measured in erythrocytes and toxic elements are measured in whole blood. One exception is selenium, which is measured in whole blood as a reliable index of selenium status.
Metal toxicity is a significant environmental health concern. A toxic load of lead, cadmium, mercury or arsenic is capable of rendering considerable damage to the brain and nervous system, particularly in children.

The Vitamin D test measures levels of Vitamin D to gain an overall perspective of a patient's health and dietary insufficiencies. Total Vitamin D (measured as 25-OH-D) generally refers to both its natural and synthetic forms. Vitamin D2 is synthetic, while D3 is naturally found in food and activated by sun exposure. To provide you with more complete information about your intake, our Vitamin D test measures both forms, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), and 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 (ergocalciferol).
The likelihood of vitamin D insufficiency is increased in malabsorption syndromes, aging (elderly individuals have a reduced capacity for vitamin D3 formation), darker skin (higher concentrations of melanin reduce efficiency in vitamin D3 production), obesity (fat-soluble vitamin D is stored in adipose, which reduces bioavailability), and minimal sun exposure, such as in winter or at more northern latitudes.
