Say hello to blood marker tracking - a pro-active approach to your health. It’s time you own your health.

My Approach to Data-Driven Nutrition with Blood Testing

You deserve to own your health. For too long, healthcare has often left individuals with vague feedback—statements like ‘you're fine’ or ‘this is too high,’ without clear explanations or actionable insights. But how high? What does ‘fine’ really mean?

You should know your numbers and whether they're improving, declining, or staying steady.

Blood tests provide the insights you need to track your health and take control of your well-being.

It’s time to own your health.

That means understanding your own data—your blood test markers, your trends—is essential. Knowing exactly where you stand empowers us to act early, aiming to keep you as well as possible, for as long as possible.

I’m committed to helping you understand your numbers and the purpose behind every test. Together, we’ll track your progress, interpret your results, and tailor solutions to your specific needs—putting you in control of your health journey.

What Blood Tests Should I Do?

For young and healthy individuals, routine blood tests can help track and maintain optimal health. Some essential markers include:

Core Blood Tests for Younger, Healthy Adults:

Nutrient Levels: Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Iron Studies (Ferritin, Transferrin Saturation), Homocysteine, and RBC Magnesium.
Metabolic Health: Fasting Glucose, HbA1c (average blood sugar), Fasting Insulin, and a Lipid Profile (Cholesterol, LDL, HDL, Triglycerides).
Inflammation: hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein) and, in some cases, a Full Blood Count (FBC).

As You Age or Based on Clinical Needs, Consider The Following with Your Doctor:

Hormonal Markers: Thyroid Panel (TSH, Free T4, Free T3), Cortisol, and sex hormones (Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone).
Liver and Kidney Function: Liver Enzymes (ALT, AST, GGT) and Kidney Function Tests (Creatinine, Urea, eGFR).
Bone Health: Calcium and Parathyroid Hormone (PTH).

Always consult with your health care professional to decide which tests are relevant for you, especially after a clinical intake and examination. Testing should be tailored to your health status, family history, and lifestyle goals.

While understanding your numbers is empowering, interpretation requires a qualified health professional. Blood test results must be analysed within the context of your health history, symptoms, and individual goals. Always consult a professional to avoid misinterpretation.

The frequency of blood testing depends on your health goals, medical conditions, and recommendations from your healthcare provider. Regular testing, as advised, helps track trends and ensures timely interventions.

Blood tests don’t predict illness but can identify trends and risk factors, enabling preventive strategies. With the guidance of a healthcare provider, these insights help you make informed decisions about your health.

To optimize your health and track key nutritional, metabolic, and inflammatory markers, start by scheduling an initial consultation. This session includes a comprehensive nutritional assessment, reviewing your health history, dietary intake, and past medical history.

Following the assessment, you’ll receive a blood test form to take to a lab. Once the tests are complete, the results will be interpreted, and you’ll be provided with a written summary report. This report will outline your results, where they fall within the reference ranges, and recommended next steps, such as nutritional or supplemental support, or if further medical review by your doctor is advised.

All blood work results will also be sent to your primary GP to ensure they are on file for your medical records and continuity of care.
