3 Biomarkers
Additional biomarkers can be added by personalising this test.
Biomarkers are specific compounds we can detect in your blood sample that reflect different things about your health. Your test will tell you your levels for each of the above biomarkers, and whether they are in a normal range.
When you purchase this test subscription plan, we will automatically send you another test kit in a few months. Don't worry - you have full control over when this will be, and you can change/cancel it anytime.
When you first purchase this test, you can choose your subscription options in the checkout. We do this, because we recommend taking multiple tests over time to track how your biomarkers change. You'll be charged per test kit (rather than monthly, for example).
One test will show you what areas you need to focus on, continued testing will help you learn how your training, diet and lifestyle is impacting your health.
We recommend a follow up test 3 months after your first test, followed by a test every 6 months depending on your results, but its up to you!
Yes, you can tailor/customise subsequent tests (via your app) to focus on just the areas that need improving.

Thyroid (T3 v T4)
GOODAlthough TSH is suppressed, T4 is in range. This suggests subclinical hyperthyroidism, which could indicate an intermediate situation either tending towards developing an overactive thyroid or the process of altering dose of medication to regulate a thyroid condition.

3 Biomarkers
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) regulates thyroid function by stimulating the production of thyroid hormones T3 and T4, which control metabolism and energy production. Women are more likely to develop thyroid disorders than men. Abnormal thyroid levels impact weight, energy levels, mood, menstrual cycle and can cause erectile dysfunction in men.
Thyroxine (T4, free direct)
A thyroxine (T4) test is used to check that the thyroid is performing properly. An overactive thyroid can cause too much thyroxine to be released whilst an underactive thyroid can lead to too little. Abnormal levels can impact weight, energy, and mood. Free T4 measures the free or unbound levels of T4.
Triiodothyronine (T3, free)
Triiodothyronine (T3) is the active form of thyroxine (T4). High T3 levels may indicate hyperthyroidism, with symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss, irritability, and increased heart rate. Low T3 levels can suggest hypothyroidism, causing fatigue, weight gain, and muscle stiffness. Free T3 measures the free or unbound levels of T3.
Our thyroid check is for anyone wanting to check if their symptoms – such as a sudden change in weight, mood changes, difficulty sleeping or muscle weakness – could be due to a thyroid issue. It is also useful for monitoring an existing thyroid condition.
"A thyroid function blood test evaluates the health of your thyroid gland. It measures levels of thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). Abnormal results can reveal hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) or hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), this test is particularly useful for looking at causes of fatigue, mood changes and weight fluctuations.
