Fibrinogen
Fibrinogen serves as both a clotting factor and cardiovascular risk marker. For older adults, monitoring fibrinogen supports comprehensive cardiovascular and coagulation assessment.
Folate (Folic Acid)
Folate measures vitamin B9, a nutrient that may become harder to absorb as we age. For older adults, adequate folate levels could support cognitive function, cardiovascular health, and healthy red blood cell production.
Food Allergy Panel
The Food Allergy Panel screens for IgE-mediated food allergies. For older adults, new food sensitivities can develop with age-related immune changes, and identifying allergens supports dietary safety and quality of life.
Food Mix Panel (fx77)
The Food Mix Panel (fx77) provides efficient first-line screening for food allergies. For older adults, changes in the immune system may lead to new food sensitivities, making screening a practical part of health maintenance.
Food Screening Panel (fx5)
The Food Screening Panel (fx5) tests for six common food allergens. For older adults, immune changes may alter allergy profiles, making periodic screening a practical component of health maintenance.
Free T3 (Triiodothyronine)
Free T3 is considered the most active thyroid hormone and may be particularly relevant as we age. Some healthcare providers note that monitoring T3 levels can help support energy, cognitive function, and metabolic health in older adults.
Free T4 (Thyroxine)
Free T4 is the main thyroid hormone and may become increasingly important to monitor with age. Some healthcare providers note that thyroid function can change over time, potentially affecting energy, cognitive clarity, and bone health in older adults.
Free Testosterone
Free testosterone is the biologically active form of testosterone that is not bound to proteins. In older adults, free testosterone levels tend to decline gradually, and monitoring may help provide context for changes in energy, mood, or muscle strength.
GGT (Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase)
GGT monitoring is particularly important for older adults, as age-related changes and the use of multiple medications can affect liver and bile duct function. Regular testing supports early detection and helps guide medication management.
Gliadin IgA
Gliadin IgA supports coeliac disease screening and can help identify late-onset gluten sensitivity in older adults presenting with unexplained digestive symptoms or nutrient deficiencies.
Glucose (Fasting)
Fasting glucose regulation can change with age. Regular monitoring supports diabetes prevention and metabolic stability for healthy ageing.
Grass Pollen Panel (gx3)
The Grass Pollen Panel (gx3) identifies grass pollen sensitisation. Allergy symptoms can change with age, and some older adults develop new seasonal allergies or find existing ones worsen.
H. pylori IgG
An H. pylori IgG test detects IgG antibodies against Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that can infect the stomach lining. A positive result may indicate a current or past H. pylori infection, as IgG antibodies can persist even after successful treatment.
HDL Cholesterol
HDL cholesterol provides essential arterial protection that becomes increasingly important with age. Maintaining healthy levels supports cardiovascular resilience in later years.
HLA B-27 (PCR)
HLA B-27 testing identifies genetic susceptibility to spondyloarthropathies. For older adults, knowing HLA-B27 status helps contextualise chronic back pain and inflammatory joint symptoms.
HOMA-IR
HOMA-IR assesses insulin resistance, which becomes increasingly relevant with age. Monitoring this marker supports diabetes prevention and metabolic health management in seniors, allowing for early lifestyle interventions when insulin sensitivity begins to decline.
HTLV I+II
An HTLV I+II test screens for antibodies against Human T-Lymphotropic Virus types 1 and 2. These retroviruses can infect T-cells and, in some cases, may be associated with serious conditions such as adult T-cell leukaemia or HTLV-associated myelopathy.
Haptoglobin
A haptoglobin test measures the level of haptoglobin protein in your blood. Haptoglobin binds to free hemoglobin released from damaged red blood cells, and its levels can help assess whether red blood cells are being destroyed faster than normal.
HbA1c (Glycated Hemoglobin)
HbA1c monitoring is increasingly important with age as diabetes risk rises. Regular testing supports early intervention and helps maintain metabolic health in later years.
Hematocrit
Hematocrit monitoring becomes increasingly valuable with age, as changes in blood composition can affect energy levels, cognitive function, and overall well-being. Regular testing supports the early detection of anemia and dehydration, common concerns in seniors.
Hemoglobin
Hemoglobin monitoring is particularly valuable for seniors, as age-related changes can affect red blood cell production and iron metabolism. Regular testing supports early detection of anemia, helping maintain energy, cognitive clarity, and quality of life.
Hemoglobin Electrophoresis
Hemoglobin electrophoresis is a laboratory technique that separates and identifies different types of hemoglobin in your blood. It is primarily used to detect hemoglobin variants and diagnose inherited blood disorders such as sickle cell disease and thalassemia.
Hepatitis B Core Antibody
A Hepatitis B Core Antibody (anti-HBc) test detects antibodies produced in response to the core antigen of the hepatitis B virus. A positive result may indicate a current, past, or resolved hepatitis B infection and should be interpreted alongside other hepatitis B markers.
Hepatitis B Surface Antigen
A Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) test detects the presence of HBsAg in your blood, which is one of the earliest indicators of a hepatitis B infection. A positive result may indicate an active hepatitis B infection and should be evaluated by a healthcare professional.
