What do blood biomarker tests show?
There are a number of different health factors that blood marker testing demonstrates. Markers can show changes happening in your body, help diagnose or monitor conditions that are developing, evaluate and track your organ function, as well as determine how effectively treatments are working.
Some of the different longevity biomarker tests in Canada that can be performed through Felix include:
- Vitamin and mineral deficiency blood tests, such as ferritin (iron-storage levels)
- Heart health blood tests (i.e., cardiovascular risks, blood cholesterol test kits, etc.)
- Metabolic health, including diabetes and prediabetes screenings
- Kidney and liver health testing
Over all, these longevity biomarkers can provide useful insights about what your biological age is, and if there are any opportunities to further optimize your health. This can be an invaluable resource for your practitioner to provide you with a preventative health assessment that’s uniquely catered to your personalized needs.
