Routine bloodwork is essential in monitoring your overall health and gaining a better idea of potential health issues before they become illnesses.
Comprehensive Blood Panel
Research
A recent study analyzing over 12,098 individuals from age 47-94 years old found that higher circulating levels of HbA1c, free blood glucose, C-reactive protein (CRP), and triglycerides, were indicative of a higher risk of health span ending.
Meanwhile, increased levels of HDL-C, ApoA1, and total cholesterol were associated with a lower risk of any chronic disease¹.
