Comprehensive blood test to assess potential causes of weight gain, including thyroid, liver, and kidney function, as well as hormone levels.

Additional Information

This panel, developed by Dr. Adam Staten, assesses potential causes of weight gain such as diabetes, cortisol and testosterone levels, and thyroid, liver, and kidney function. It measures various hormones and enzymes to pinpoint the underlying issue. Specific benefits include identifying thyroid problems, liver disease, kidney dysfunction, and hormonal imbalances contributing to weight gain. Key health aspects covered are metabolic health, hormone balance, and organ function.

Biomarkers Tested (21)

Unbound thyroxine (Free T4) (pmol/L)
Active form of thyroid hormone.
Unbound triiodothyronine (Free T3) (pmol/L)
Another active form of thyroid hormone.
TSH (mIU/L)
Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) helps regulate the thyroid gland, which affects metabolism. Abnormal levels can indicate thyroid disorders.
Total Protein (g/dL)
A measure of all of the proteins in the plasma portion of your blood. Proteins are important building blocks of all cells and tissues - they are important for body growth and health.
Creatinine (mg/dL)
Creatinine (Cr) is a waste product from muscle metabolism, filtered by the kidneys. Elevated levels can indicate kidney dysfunction.
eGFR (mL/min/1.73m²)
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) assesses kidney function by estimating the rate at which kidneys filter waste from the blood.
Urea (mmol/L)
A high concentration of this waste product can indicate dehydration or that your kidneys aren’t working properly.
Globulin (g/dL)
Any of a group of simple proteins found in the blood.
Albumin (g/dL)
Albumin is a protein made by the liver that helps keep fluid in your bloodstream and carries various substances throughout your body. Low levels can indicate liver or kidney disease.
Bilirubin (mg/dL)
Bilirubin is a substance produced during the normal breakdown of red blood cells. High levels can lead to jaundice and indicate liver or bile duct problems.
ALT (U/L)
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is an enzyme mainly produced by the liver. A good indicator of liver damage caused by alcohol, drugs or hepatitis.
GGT (U/L)
Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is a liver enzyme which can be used to diagnose alcohol abuse as it is typically raised in long term drinkers.
Alkaline phosphatase (U/L)
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme found in many tissues, with high concentrations in the liver, bile ducts, and bone. Elevated levels may indicate liver disease or bone disorders.
AST (U/L)
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is an enzyme created mainly by the liver and the heart. High levels can indicate damage to your liver caused by alcohol, drugs or hepatitis.
Cortisol (µg/dL)
Cortisol is a hormone released in response to stress and low blood glucose. Abnormal levels can indicate adrenal issues.
Free Testosterone Index (-)
Free Testosterone Index (FTI) is a measure of the amount of testosterone available in the blood. It helps assess androgen status in both men and women.
Estradiol (pg/mL)
Estradiol (E2) is a form of estrogen, a hormone that regulates the female reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics. Abnormal levels can indicate reproductive or hormonal disorders.
HbA1c (%)
Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) measures the average blood sugar levels over the past three months. It helps monitor long-term glucose control in diabetics.
Ferritin (ng/mL)
Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in the body. Low levels can indicate iron deficiency, while high levels may suggest iron overload or inflammation.
B12 (pg/mL)
Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) is essential for red blood cell formation and neurological function. Deficiency can lead to anemia and nerve damage.
B9 (ng/mL)
Vitamin B9 (Folate) is crucial for DNA synthesis and repair. Low levels can lead to anemia and other health issues.
