Test description

Your blood sugar levels play a central role in how your body produces and uses energy. This panel gives you a complete picture of your glucose health - not just what your levels are right now, but how well your body has been managing them over the past few months. Whether you're monitoring an existing condition, want to understand your risk of developing type 2 diabetes, or simply want a clearer view of your metabolic health, this panel gives you the insight you need.

Biomarker descriptions

Glucose

Glucose is the sugar your body uses as its primary source of energy. This test measures your fasting blood glucose level - taken after you haven't eaten - which tells us how well your body is regulating sugar when it's not actively digesting a meal. Levels that are persistently elevated can indicate insulin resistance or diabetes, while unusually low levels can point to other underlying issues. It's a fundamental marker of metabolic health.

HbA1c

HbA1c (glycated haemoglobin) gives us something a single glucose reading can't: a window into your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. When glucose circulates in your bloodstream, it attaches to red blood cells - HbA1c measures how much of that has occurred. This makes it one of the most reliable indicators of long-term glucose control, and it's the test most commonly used to diagnose and monitor type 2 diabetes. Unlike fasting glucose, it doesn't require any special preparation and isn't affected by what you ate the day before.
