Male Health

The 6 Tests Basic Check Up panel is the perfect panel to see how your overall health is doing. The panel consists of 6 tests that are typically ordered by a physician during annual physical examination.

Most important, this is a good panel to establish your “baseline.” Your baseline consists of all the numeric test results (levels) including your blood counts, kidney function, liver function, electrolytes, total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, LDL, and thyroid function values. By knowing these levels, you can begin to manage your own health to see if they fluctuate over time.

With the Basic Check-Up, you’ll get a good look at your overall health through a variety of tests including:

1. Complete Blood Count (CBC) – Tests for blood disorders such as leukemia, anemia, and blood clotting.

2. Chemistry Pane (CMP) – Includes 16 essential tests which give information about glucose levels, electrolytes, and kidney and liver functions.

3. Lipid Panel – Analyzes your cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL and HDL levels. Results can be used to determine your risk for coronary artery disease or stroke.

4. Urinalysis (UA) – Tests your urine for substances that can indicate metabolic problems or kidney disorders.

5. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) – Analyzes thyroid function and signs of hyper- and hypothyroidism.

This is a complete package for men who want to take control of their health. The 15 Tests Male Total Health Profile gives you a lot of information including your blood counts, kidney and liver functions, electrolytes, male hormones, thyroid, heart, nutrition, hepatitis and HIV status.

The Comprehensive Male Panel includes the following tests:

1. CBC (Complete Blood Count) – tests for blood disorders that include signs of leukemia, anemia, blood clotting as well as your ability to fight infections.

2.Chemistry Panel – evaluates blood sugar levels, liver and kidney function, renal function and electrolyte levels.

3. Lipid Panel – Cholesterol Test – Analyzes your cholesterol: total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and HDL levels. Results can be used to determine your risk for coronary artery disease or stroke.

4. Urinalysis – tests your urine for substances that can indicate metabolic problems or kidney disorders.

5. PSA Test – determines the levels of Prostate Specific Antigen (protein produced by the prostate cells). Elevated levels of PSA can be an indication of an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer.

6. Testosterone (Free & Total) – The Testosterone Test will determine the level of testosterone (free and total) in your blood.
Testosterone is a hormone that affects sexual features and development.

7. DHEA-S – DHEA is a steroid hormone synthesized from cholesterol and secreted by the adrenal glands.
The adrenal glands affect kidney function. DHEA is a very powerful precursor to all of your major sex hormones: estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.

8. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) – Analyzes thyroid function and signs of hyper- and hypothyroidism.

Why Do I Need It?

This panel provides a comprehensive analysis of your overall health and tests for the presence of male-specific diseases.

The Blood Typing and RH Factor Test determines your blood type [either A, B, AB, and O] and Rh factor [negative or positive]. Did you know there are several benefits in knowing both? Blood type is determined by the types of antigens (or markers) on your blood cells. Antigens are proteins on the surface of your blood cells that can cause a response from the immune system – which is critical for fighting disease.
The Rh factor is a type of protein on the surface of red blood cells. Red blood cells that contain protein are called Rh-positive and the red blood cells that don’t are Rh-negative.

Why Do I Need It?:
Do you know your blood type or Rh factor?
The benefits of knowing your blood type range from identification (blood is a powerful genetic fingerprint!) to nutrition (according to some studies, certain blood types break down foods better than others, allowing customers to better manage their health).
Knowing your Rh factor is just as important, especially for pregnant woman. The majority of people have a positive (+) Rh factor. If a woman has a negative Rh factor and her partner has a positive Rh factor, she is considered to be at risk because her baby will be Rh positive. During pregnancy, the blood supplies of the fetus and the mother are separate, but there are instances it can be passed through to the child. When the mother is Rh negative and the baby is Rh positive, there is a possibility her body will treat the baby as a foreign substance and start attacking the baby’s blood. Medications can be used to prevent this from happening.”

The C-Reactive Protein Test is used to assess the risk of cardiovascular disease, inflammatory bowel disease, some forms of arthritis, pelvic Inflammatory disease and other inflammation.

The C‐Reactive Protein (High Sensitivity, Cardiac) (CRP) is a blood test that measures the amount of protein (called C‐reactive Protein) in your blood that indicates inflammation. It’s also used to assess your risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). “High Sensitivity” means that this particular test can see if you have an increased chance of having a heart problem or heart attack.
The best way to utilize test results is to be tested two different times (typically taken two weeks apart). Your physician will take the average of the two test results to determine your risk for cardiovascular disease or the presence of inflammation.
High levels of CRP are caused by infections and many long‐term diseases. But a CRP test cannot show where the inflammation is located or what is causing it. Other tests are needed to find the cause and location of the inflammation.

Why Do I Need It?:
Inflammation can pop up in your body in a number of ways. With the C‐Reactive Protein (High Sensitivity, Cardiac) Test, you’ll know if inflammation has damaged the inner lining of your arteries, thus increasing your chances of a heart attack.

This test can also check for infection after surgery, determine any infections or diseases causing inflammation, or see how well your body is reacting to treatment.

A Complete Blood Count or CBC is a great test to take to give you a “snapshot” of your health. This test gives important information about the kind and the number of cells in your blood. Physicians use this information to evaluate symptoms, help diagnose conditions and treat certain illnesses (like infections).

The Complete Blood Count (CBC) measures:

1. White blood cell count.
2. White blood cell differential.
3. Red blood cell count.
4. Red blood cell density.
5. Hemoglobin levels.
6. Blood platelet count.

Why Do I Need It?:
The CBC is perfect if you…

* Feel fatigued.
* Think you have an infection.
* Experience difficulty recovering from infection or injury.
* Experience excessive bleeding or blood clot formation.

Having a CBC test is also a good idea if you have a personal or family history of inflammation, bruising, blood disorders or leukemia.

Test Details::
Normal ranges can depend on sex and age. Below are the ranges for a healthy adult.

High Results Indicate:

RED BLOOD CELLS: The clinical term for high red blood cells is polycythemia. When the red blood cell count is elevated, the blood’s thickness is increased. This causes reduced blood flow and in some cases blood clots.

WHITE BLOOD CELLS: The clinical term for high white blood cells is leukocytosis. When the white blood cell count is elevated, it is an indication of infection. White blood cells, called leukocytes, fight diseases and infections in the body.

PLATELETS: The clinical term for high platelet counts is thrombocytosis. Having an elevated level of platelets does not always indicate a medical problem. Platelets can be elevated due to a secondary disease or disorder such as an inflammatory disease. Low levels may indicate possible bleeding

HEMATOCRIT: Elevated hematocrit levels are seen in people living in high altitudes, chronic smokers, and in cases of dehydration.

HEMOGLOBIN: Elevated hemoglobin levels are seen with several conditions, the most common being dehydration.

Low Results Indicate:

RED BLOOD CELLS: Low red blood cell counts are caused by blood loss, either chronic or acute. Acute blood loss is usually from an injury, trauma or surgery. Chronic blood loss is most commonly from small amounts of blood lost over a period of time.

RED BLOOD CELLS: Low red blood cell counts are caused by blood loss, either chronic or acute. Acute blood loss is usually from an injury, trauma or surgery. Chronic blood loss is most commonly from small amounts of blood lost over a period of time.

WHITE BLOOD CELLS: The clinical term for a low white blood cell count is leucopenia. This can result from chemotherapy, radiation or immune system diseases.

PLATELETS: Low platelet counts can cause abnormal and excessive bleeding

HEMATOCRIT: Low hematocrit levels can indicate anemia. Anemia can be caused by blood loss or a secondary disease or disorder.

HEMOGLOBIN: Low hemoglobin levels can indicate anemia as well as other conditions such as excessive bleeding, cancers affecting the bone marrow and kidney disease.

Chlamydia and Gonorrhea are both sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) that are caused by a bacterium and have similar symptoms such as discharge and painful urination. Because of the similarity, ANY LAB TEST NOW offers a Value Panel that test for both Chlamydia and Gonorrhea for one low price.

Why Do I Need It?:
There are several reasons besides the similarities between Chlamydia and Gonorrhea why you might need this Value Panel or the Comprehensive STD Panel. One, sometimes STD’s don’t have any symptoms. And two, people with STDs are more likely to become infected with other STDs including HIV. Read More.

The Comprehensive Metabolic Panel includes 16 essential tests that are typically requested by your doctor as part of a routine check-up or annual physical. This panel gives you or your doctor a clearer picture of your overall health.


Note: This panel requires fasting. Do not eat for 10-12 hours before taking the panel to ensure its accuracy.

Sodium (Na) Potassium (K), Chloride (C) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) – When tested, irregular values in these “electrolytes” can indicate trouble with your body’s salt/water or acid/base balance. Dehydration, vomiting, medications and kidney problems can cause these health issues.

Albumin (Alb), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), Bilirubin (Bil)-Direct and Total, Aspartate Transaminase (AST); and Alanine Transaminase (ALT) – These are proteins and enzymes found in the blood. Abnormal levels of any of these tests can indicate liver damage or liver disease.

Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Calcium (Ca), Creatinine (Cr), Phosporus and Glucose Testing – These tests check for a range of problems that affect the kidneys, including kidney disease. These also measure the waste in the blood that may affect kidney filtration.

Why Do I Need It?:
This is one of the most common blood tests available and it gives you a tremendous amount of information about your health. And of course, it’s at a great value! Note: This panel requires fasting. Do not eat for 10-12 hours before taking the panel to ensure its accuracy.

Normal ranges: can depend on your gender and age. Below are the normal ranges for a healthy adult.

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel

Total Protein is a measure of available building blocks for many compounds in the body. Protein are used to form enzymes, hormones, antibodies and many structural components like muscle tissue. The main proteins in the blood are albumin and globulin. Increases are seen in liver disorders, alcoholism, and chronic infections and inflammation. Decreases are noted in malabsorption, colitis, and poor nutrition.

Albumin is a primary protein in the blood and is made from amino acids in the liver and is also available from the diet, especially from eggs. It helps with the immune system, maintains proper fluid balance in the tissues and plays a role in nutrient transport and waste removal. Increases are seen in kidney disorders and dehydration. Decreases are noted in decreased immune function and edema.

Globulin is the other primary protein and has important functions in immune response. Among its other jobs are carrying hormones and lipids. Compounds known as imunoglobulins, like IgA, IgG and IgE are highly important for various immune issues like allergies and infections in the mucus linings of the body. Increases are seen in chronic infection and during recovery from acute infections, as well as in Rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and in some cases when stomach acids are deficient. Decreases are primarily found in patients with compromised immunity and in cases of poor nutrition or malabsorption.

BUN – Blood Urea Nitrogen is an end product of protein breakdown. It’s produced mainly in the liver and is eliminated by the kidneys. Increases can be caused by excessive protein consumption, inadequate water consumption and kidney disorders. Decreases are related to poor diet, liver problems, excessive water consumption and malabsorption.

Uric Acid is an end product of a protein digestion, mainly a type of protein called purine. Some foods that are high in purine are organ meats, spinach, mushrooms, yeast and asparagus. It also comes from the breakdown of purine proteins in the nucleus of cells. Increases occur when the kidneys can’t eliminate properly or with gouty arthritis, alcoholism and high protein diets. Decreases are primarily associated with low protein diet or malabsorption.

Glucose is sugar that is used by the cells to provide energy. It is the only type of fuel that can be used by the brain and nervous system, whereas other tissues can also burn fats for energy. Glucose comes from the digestion of carbohydrates and may also be stored as glycogen for later use. It is primarily kept in balance by 2 hormones made in the pancreas – insulin and glucagon, although the liver, adrenal and thyroid glands are also involved. Increased values are related to diabetes, stress, Syndrome X and diet. Decreased values can reflect hypoglycemia and result from overproduction of insulin, alcoholism and liver disorders.

SGOT (also called AST) is an enzyme found mainly in the liver, heart, muscle and gonads. It functions in conversion of cholesterol to hormones and in the synthesis of several acids formed from the breakdown of proteins and fats. Increases are seen in congestive heart disease, heart attack, liver disease and alcoholism. Decreases are seen in gonadal dysfunction and vitamin B-6 deficiency.

SGPT (also called ALT) is an enzyme found primarily in the liver where it is produced when fatty membranes release stored food substances. It is released when cells die and is used to measure liver damage and other cellular damage. Increases are seen in liver disorders, alcoholism, vitamin A deficiency and heart attack. Decreases are seen in congested liver with poor release of stored nutrients.

GGT is another enzyme found primarily in the liver that is responsible for transporting amino acids and proteins into cells. Increases are seen in obstruction of the bile duct, liver damage and alcohol use, especially chronic. Decreases are seen when the liver is congested and in hypothyroid conditions.

Calcium is a principle component of the bones and teeth with 99% of the body’s calcium found in these structures. The other 1% is very important to processes like blood clotting, nerve and muscle function, and various enzyme activities. Increases are seen in disorders involving the parathyroid and thyroid glands, excess intake of vitamin D, and in conditions related to much acid in the body. Decreases are seen in parathyroid dysfunction, vitamin D deficiency, magnesium deficiency and numerous other conditions.

Iron is an important part of hemoglobin the red blood cells, carrying oxygen to all cells of the body. It also provides information on how the liver and spleen are functioning. Increases are indicative of some types of anemia where adequate co-factors are deficient leaving unbound iron that can cause free radicals. Decreases are seen in iron deficiency anemia, fatigue and bleeding in the G.I. tract.

Potassium is an electrolyte related to fluid balance and is used mainly inside the body’s cells. It is necessary for proper function of the heart and muscles. Increases are seen with excessive destruction of cells, underactive adrenal glands and kidney disease. Decreases are mainly seen in diarrhea, diuretic use, nutritional deficiency and overactive adrenal glands.

Sodium is also an electrolyte. A low level of blood sodium means you have hyponatremia, which is usually due to too much sodium loss, too much water intake or retention, or to fluid accumulation in the body (edema). Low sodium may be due to dehydration or a disease process.

Bilirubin (Total Bilirubin) comes from the normal breakdown of red blood cells. This breakdown is done by the spleen, which produces indirect bilirubin, and the liver, which produces direct bilirubin. The combination of these two forms is called total bilirubin. Increases are seen in liver and spleen dysfunction. Decreases are found in iron deficiency anemia and also a type of spleen dysfunction.

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is actually the total of bicarbonate and carbon dioxide. These two substances are in a dynamic equilibrium and help maintain the balance of acid and base in the body. The test also reflects the ability of the lungs to exchange oxygen for the carbon dioxide gas. Increases indicate more alkaline blood condition and in the extreme, metabolic alkalosis. Decreases show more acidity in the blood and in the extreme metabolic acidosis. Chloride is another electrolyte involved in maintaining proper fluid balance and pH balance. It is also part of the stomach’s hydrochloric acid that digests protein and levels are also influenced by kidney function. Increases are seen when too much acid is in the system, in dehydration, and with swelling caused by too much fluid inside the cells. Decreases are seen in excessive sweating, stomach acid deficiency and edema.

Creatinine is a waste product of muscle activity and levels are related to a person’s muscle mass and how much exercise and strenuous activity they perform. Increases can also be related to inadequate kidney function. Deceases may be due to lack of muscle mass or degeneration

Nearly 6 million people don’t realize that diabetes is attacking their bodies.

The Diabetes Maintenance Panel is an effective panel for both diabetics and for those who want to see if they have diabetes.

Test Components:
The Diabetes Maintenance Panel includes the following tests:

1. Complete Blood Count (CBC)
2. Glucose, Serum (Fasting)
3. Hemoglobin A1c
4. Diabetic Urinalysis

The four tests in this panel will give you and your doctor a lot of knowledge. The Complete Blood Count (CBC) tests for blood disorders such as infection or anemia; the Fasting Glucose is used to detect both hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, to help diagnose diabetes, and to monitor glucose levels in persons with diabetes; the Hemoglobin A1c can detect pre-diabetes, diagnose it, or see if diabetes is under control; and finally, the Diabetic Urinalysis will determine if albumin (protein) is found in your urine (if so, it’s possible your kidneys aren’t working properly).

The knowledge gained from the four tests in this panel will give you and your physician the necessary information to help monitor and/or adjust your diabetic medications.

Why Do I Need It?:
Diabetes can be a silent killer if left undetected and is the leading cause of blindness and kidney failure. It can also increase your chances of having a heart attack, stroke or infection.

Monitoring your diabetes may give you an opportunity to prevent the onset of these side effects or keep your diabetes from advancing. Knowledge is power.

The Glucose (Serum) Test, also known as the Fasting Blood Glucose Test, is the most common test used to diagnose hyperglycemia (higher-than-normal levels of blood sugar), hypoglycemia (lower-than-normal levels of blood sugar) and diabetes. It’s commonly given by your doctor every year and during pregnancy. In addition, Diabetics self-conduct this test multiple times a day to monitor their blood glucose.

Note: Be sure to fast (not eat) for 10-12 before the test to ensure its accuracy.

Why Do I Need It?:
Are you diabetic or want to know if you’re diabetic?
This test will determine if your blood glucose level is within a healthy range. It will also screen for, diagnose, and monitor pre-diabetes, diabetes, hyper- and hypoglycemia.

Test Details:
Normal Range: Fasting ranges should be between 70 to 110 mg/dL

High Results Indicate: High result values are between 100 and 126 mg and are considered to be a risk factor for type 2 diabetes. Results higher than 126 mg can be a sign that you have diabetes and you should seek medical attention.

Low Results Indicate: Results under 70 mg/dL can indicate hypoglycemia.

What is being tested?

Glucose is a simple sugar that serves as the main source of energy for the body. The carbohydrates we eat are broken down into glucose (and a few other simple sugars), absorbed by the small intestine, and circulated throughout the body. Most of the body’s cells require glucose for energy production; brain and nervous system cells not only rely on glucose for energy, they can only function when glucose levels in the blood remain above a certain level.

The body’s use of glucose hinges on the availability of insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas. Insulin acts as a traffic director, transporting glucose into the body’s cells, directing the body to store excess energy as glycogen for short-term storage and/or as triglycerides in adipose (fat) cells. We cannot live without glucose or insulin, and they must be in balance.

Normally, blood glucose levels rise slightly after a meal, and insulin is secreted to lower them, with the amount of insulin released matched up with the size and content of the meal. If blood glucose levels drop too low, such as might occur in between meals or after a strenuous workout, glucagon (another pancreatic hormone) is secreted to tell the liver to turn some glycogen back into glucose, raising the blood glucose levels. If the glucose/insulin feedback mechanism is working properly, the amount of glucose in the blood remains fairly stable. If the balance is disrupted and glucose levels in the blood rise, then the body tries to restore the balance, both by increasing insulin production and by excreting glucose in the urine.

Severe, acute hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia can be life-threatening, causing organ failure, brain damage, coma, and, in extreme cases, death. Chronically high blood glucose levels can cause progressive damage to body organs such as the kidneys, eyes, heart and blood vessels, and nerves. Chronic hypoglycemia can lead to brain and nerve damage.

Some women may develop hyperglycemia during pregnancy, which is termed gestational diabetes. If untreated, this can cause these mothers to give birth to large babies who may have low glucose levels. Women who have had gestational diabetes may or may not go on to develop diabetes.

The Hemoglobin A1c Test is a valuable measure of the overall blood glucose levels over a period of time (2‐3 months). This test can be used to help detect pre‐diabetes and diagnose diabetes. If you’re diabetic, this test can help determine if your disease is under control.

Why Do I Need It?:

Is your diabetes under control? With ANY LAB TEST NOW®, you can get this common and important test fast and without an appointment. The information from this test is vital for anyone managing their diabetes.

Test Details:
Normal Range:
Any test value less than 6.0% indicates that you are non‐diabetic.

High Results Indicate:
A high result (over 6%) could indicate diabetes mellitus, chronic hyperglycemia, the presence of hemoglobin S or the presence of hemoglobin C. Your healthcare physician must make the final diagnosis.

Low Results Indicate:
A low result (under 6%) could indicate high levels of hemoglobin F or improved the control of a diabetic condition. Your healthcare physician must make the final diagnosis.

There are several types of hepatitis – each caused by a different hepatitis virus.
The Hepatitis A Antibody (Total) Test will determine a prior Hepatitis A infection or an acute Hepatitis A infection.

Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can be contracted through unprotected sex, using contaminated needles, or other causes.

Common Variations of Hepatitis:
• Hepatitis A can be caused by consuming contaminated water or food.
• Hepatitis B can be contracted through sharing contaminated needles, having unprotected sex, or being exposed to infected blood from another person.
• Hepatitis C can be spread by blood from contaminated needles during drug use or tattooing as well as by having unprotected sex.

Why Do I Need It?:
If left untreated, hepatitis can lead to fatigue or more serious issues like liver failure. What’s most disturbing is how hepatitis can remain dormant in your body for years and cause no outward physical symptoms. It may be impossible to detect hepatitis with just a physical examination because you may not have any noticeable symptoms.

If your results show positive, this means that you have been infected with Hepatitis A. If your test is negative and you know you have been exposed to Hepatitis A, you may wish to be tested again in 6 to 9 weeks.

There are several types of hepatitis – each caused by a different hepatitis virus. Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can be contracted through unprotected sex, using contaminated needles, or other causes.

You should be tested for Hepatitis B if you have symptoms of an infection or have been exposed to the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). If you have chronic liver disease, you should also be tested. You may want to consider the Hepatitis Panel, which tests for a variety of the most common variations of hepatitis.

Common Variations of Hepatitis:

* Hepatitis A can be caused by consuming contaminated water or food.
* Hepatitis B can be contracted through sharing contaminated needles, having unprotected sex, or being exposed to infected blood from another person.
* Hepatitis C can be spread by blood from contaminated needles during drug use or tattooing as well as by having unprotected sex.

Why Do I Need It?:

If left untreated, hepatitis can lead to fatigue or more serious issues like liver failure. What’s most disturbing is how the hepatitis virus can remain dormant in your body for years and cause no outward physical symptoms. In fact, Hepatitis B can have an incubation period of 1 to 6 months after exposure, so if you test negative today, you may want to consider retesting again at a later date (depending on the date of the exposure.)

Normal Range

A negative result may indicate that you have never been exposed to Hepatitis B or you have recovered from an acute Hepatitis B infection. A positive result indicates that you have an active Hepatitis B infection.

High / Low Results Indicate:

There are no high or low results for this test. Test result will show a negative or positive

There are several types of hepatitis – each caused by a different hepatitis virus. Viral hepatitis can be contracted through unprotected sex, using contaminated needles, or other causes. The Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Test only tests for Hepatitis C (You may want to consider the Hepatitis Panel, also available).

Common Variations of Hepatitis:

* Hepatitis A can be caused by consuming contaminated water or food.
* Hepatitis B can be contracted through sharing contaminated needles, having unprotected sex, or being exposed to infected blood from another person.
* Hepatitis C can be spread by blood from contaminated needles during drug use or tattooing as well as by having unprotected sex.

Why Do I Need It?:
Hepatitis C often leads to chronic hepatitis, which can progress to cirrhosis and even liver cancer. Early detection of the virus can alert your physician to follow your liver function tests more closely to consider treatments if you have a chronic infection.

If your result is positive, you have probably been infected with Hepatitis C. You may not even have any symptoms. If your result is negative, this indicates that you have not been infected with Hepatitis C.

Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can be contracted through unprotected sex, using contaminated needles, or other causes. There are several types of hepatitis – each caused by a different hepatitis virus.

The Hepatitis Panel from ANY LAB TEST NOW® tests for three common variations of hepatitis: Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C.

Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can be contracted through unprotected sex, using contaminated needles, or other causes. There are several types of hepatitis – each caused by a different hepatitis virus.

If left untreated, hepatitis can lead to fatigue or more serious issues like liver failure. What’s most disturbing is how hepatitis can remain dormant in your body for years and cause no outward physical symptoms.

It may be impossible to detect hepatitis with just a physical examination because you may not have any noticeable symptoms. That’s why it’s important to be tested. Get a Hepatitis Panel and peace‐of‐mind today.

The Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) Test measures the amount of iron in your blood. Having too much or too little iron in your blood can cause medical problems. However, this test is mainly used to determine certain types of anemia.

Why Do I Need It?:
You may too much or too little iron in your blood.
Either way, it’s important to find out.
A TIBC not only gives an Iron level, but also shows the ability of a protein called transferrin to carry iron in the blood.

Elevated results could indicate iron deficiency.

Low results could indicate hemochromatosis, malnutrition, inflammation, liver disease or kidney disease.

A standard cholesterol test may not be enough because it can’t detect ALL the risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease. The Lipoprotein Particle Profile™ and LPP Plus goes above and beyond the standard cholesterol tests by directly measuring (vs. calculating) lipoprotein particles – both in numbers and in density.

Test Components:

The Lipoprotein Particle Profile Plus (LPPTM) tests for:

* Lipoprotein Fractionation
* Lipoprotein Particle Numbers
* Lp(a)
* Triglycerides
* Homocysteine
* C-Reactive Protein (High Sensitivity)
* Insulin

Description:

The LPP Plus is different from the LPP in that it also tests for homocysteine, C-Reactive Protein (High Sensitivity), PLA2 (a specific marker for stroke risk) and insulin values.

A standard cholesterol test may not be enough because it can’t detect ALL the risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease.

The Lipoprotein Particle ProfileTM and LPP Plus goes above and beyond the standard cholesterol tests by directly measuring (vs. calculating) lipoprotein particles – both in numbers and in density.

Measuring the lipoprotein subgroups is the only way to evaluate new risk factors, which is crucial for an accurate assessment of your cardiovascular risk.

The test is simple and non-invasive. An ANY LAB TEST NOW® associate will gently take a small amount of blood and give you test results in a few days. It’s that simple.

Why Do I Need It?:

Did you know that approximately 50% of people suffering from heart attacks have “normal” cholesterol numbers*. (*NIH-National Heart Blood and Lung Institute.)

If you have “normal” cholesterol numbers, you may want to consider the more comprehensive Lipoprotein Particle ProfileTM or LPP Plus. This test can determine your cardiovascular risk despite those apparent “normal” levels. Knowing your lipoprotein numbers is important because cardiovascular risk increases with a higher LDL particle count.

High Results Indicate:

Research has shown that there are different sized of LDL and HDL particles and some are much more dangerous than others. Having a detailed profile gives your doctor the information needed to make more effective treatment decisions to reduce your risk for heart disease and even a heart attack.

The Liver Function Panel (Hepatic Function) measures the blood levels of seven tests that you may want to check to see how well your liver is working. Your doctor may order it if you’re suffering from symptoms related to liver disease or if you regularly take medicine, which can affect the liver. This test is also recommended if you’ve been exposed to a Hepatitis A, B, or C virus.

Test Components:

This panel includes the following tests:

1. Total Protein
2. Albumin
3. Total Bilirubin
4. Direct Bilirubin
5. Alkaline Phosphatase
6. AST
7. ALT

Why Do I Need It?:

High or low levels in one of the seven tests in the Liver Function Panel (Hepatic Function) may indicate that liver damage or liver disease is present.

If you’re taking medicine or if you’ve been exposed to hepatitis, this test is typically recommended by your physician.

The MicroNutrient Test from ANY LAB TEST NOW® tests for 32 vitamins and minerals:

The MicroNutrient Test measures your body’s ability to absorb 32 vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other essential nutrients within your white blood cells. This non-fasting blood test tells you if you have a vitamin deficiency and gives you a plan for how to correct it.


More importantly, the results information can help you reduce the risk of illness and disease related to such deficiencies.

Did you know that about 50% of people taking multivitamins are STILL deficient?


The MicroNutrient Test can tell you which supplement to focus on – thereby eliminating your deficiency and any unnecessary spending on costly supplements.


You also need it because scientific evidence confirms that vitamin deficiencies are associated with disease processes and the overall conditions of your health. The MicroNutrient Test is the only test that takes a nutritional assessment and creates a plan to correct any deficiency negatively influencing customer’s health. Vitamin, mineral and antioxidant deficiencies have been shown to suppress immune function and contribute to chronic degenerative processes such as arthritis, cancer, Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Micronutrient Test is More Advanced Than other Laboratory Tests

Before the introduction of the Micronutrient Test, many diagnosis and risk assessments were based on clinical observation and measurements of static levels of certain nutrients in serum. Static serum levels are not always representative indicators for assessing cell metabolism and utilization.

MicroNutrient Test offers a unique means to scientifically assess the intracellular requirements of micronutrients that play an important role in overall health and wellness. Micronutrient test measure the biochemical function of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants, providing a powerful clinical assessment tool. Our panels are designed to provide you with the most comprehensive nutritional analysis available.

What if I am deficient?

Any Lab Test Now offers a truly functional intracellular test (Micronutrient Test), we also provide you with targeted nutrient repletion recommendations for those vitamins and minerals found to be deficient.

Why Nutritional Testing is Important?

• 1. Nutrient deficiencies are common, in fact 90% of people are deficient and 50% of those are already taking supplements.
• 2. Vitamin deficiencies contribute to common degenerative disease like heart disease, stroke, cancer and Alzheimer’s.
• 3. Many prescription medications can cause nutrient depletions. (Ask us to provide you with a chart)
• 4. Having a strong antioxidant defense system protects you against heart disease, cancer and other chronic conditions.
• 5. There can be too much of a “good thing” — too many antioxidants can be harmful. The only way to know what you need is to be tested.
• 6. Simply taking a multivitamin may not be enough to meet your nutritional needs.
• 7. You might be over supplementing with unnecessary vitamins, minerals or antioxidants. Too much can be harmful.
• 8. Aging can be caused by a lack of nutrients.
• 9. Heaving healthy cells promotes strong immune function and optimal health for a lifetime.
• 10. Your doctor thinks it is medically necessary for a comprehensive health care program.

Mononucleosis is a viral infection caused by the Epstein Barr virus and is common in adolescents and young adults. Often times, there are no symptoms, but others feel tired, feverish, have a sore throat, etc.

The Mononucleosis Test (Qualitative) will detect what’s called ‘heterophil antibodies’ in your blood (related to mono). Keep in mind, if you’ve had mononucleosis in the past, you will always test positive for it.

Why Do I Need It?:

If you feel poorly and you just don’t know why, you might have mononucleosis (mono). Find out now because mono can keep you out of commission for weeks and sometimes longer.

When to Get Tested?

When a person, especially an adolescent, has symptoms of mononucleosis, including fever, sore throat, swollen glands, and fatigue

Test Details:

This test gives results as a positive or negative. A positive result indicates that you have mononucleosis or have had it in the past. A negative result indicates that you have not been infected by the mononucleosis virus

The PSA Test (or Prostate Specific Antigen) is a substance a man’s prostate gland produces. This blood test will measure your PSA levels and if elevated, it may indicate prostate cancer or prostatitis (an enlarged prostate).

Why Do I Need It?:

No matter what age you are, all men need a PSA Test. Why? Because it’s important to establish a PSA “baseline,” so that you can, over time, monitor any changes in your PSA levels. A PSA is also recommended for men on testosterone therapy. Proactive blood testing like this can help you monitor your levels and possibly detect and treat disease before it’s too late.

Normal Range: Levels of 4.0 ng/mL and less are considered to be normal.

High Results Indicate: Men with results higher than 10.0 ng/mL are considered to be at a greater risk for prostate cancer. Levels between 4.0 ng/mL and 10.0 ng/mL can indicate prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia or prostatitis.

Low Results Indicate: Any result under 4.0 ng/mL is considered to be normal.

The PT Test or Prothrombin Time Test is a blood test that measures how long it takes for blood to clot. It is mainly a test given to detect bleeding problems, monitor people taking anticoagulant medication, or for pre‐surgical workups.

Why Do I Need It?:

If you’re heading into surgery, your doctor or plastic surgeon will want to make sure your blood will clot and there aren’t any problems. It’s also used to find a cause for abnormal bleeding/bruising, to monitor how well your liver is working, and see if your blood‐thinning medicine is working.
