Metabolic health blood test
Mid-depth metabolic panel priced well below peers
Measures 19 markers of blood sugar, cholesterol, liver, kidney and inflammation to give a broad view of metabolic health.
- At-home test
This is a 21-marker blood panel covering kidney, liver, lipid and blood sugar markers, intended for people taking Wegovy (semaglutide) for weight management who want to monitor these systems over time. It suits ongoing monitoring rather than one-off screening.
21 biomarkers as listed by Blue Horizon Medicals.
This panel covers 21 markers across kidney function (sodium, urea, chloride, eGFR, creatinine), liver function (total protein, albumin, globulin, ALP, ALT, AST, GGT, bilirubin), a lipid profile (total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, HDL percentage, LDL, non-HDL), HbA1c and lipase. Blue Horizon markets this combination for people taking Wegovy (semaglutide) for weight management, as these are the organ systems and metabolic markers commonly monitored during periods of significant weight change or when starting a new medication. This is a monitoring panel rather than a diagnostic one, and any results that concern you are worth discussing with your GP or prescriber.
Blue Horizon does not group this test against named competitors in our data. Against the wider set of similarly sized metabolism panels we track, its price of £129.75 is close to the median of £124.38, only a few pounds above it. Its 21 markers place it among the more comprehensive metabolism panels we track, which is reflected in a strong clinical depth score, and the listing is detailed, covering the full biomarker list, sample type, collection options and turnaround.
The score is held back mainly by collection convenience, since the sample must be taken as a venous draw at a clinic or via a nurse home visit rather than an at-home kit, with results back within five days. Trust signals reflect Blue Horizon's Trustpilot rating and its UKAS ISO 15189 partner labs; there is no doctor review as standard, though you can opt in at checkout.
This panel could suit you if you are taking Wegovy (semaglutide) for weight management and want to keep track of kidney, liver, lipid and blood sugar markers over time, for example before starting treatment or every few months afterwards. It is a monitoring tool rather than a substitute for advice from your GP or prescriber, so discuss any results that concern you with them.
If you do not need this specific combination of markers, or you are not taking Wegovy, a smaller or more general panel may suit you better and cost less, since this one is priced for its full 21-marker scope rather than as a budget option.
This is a blood test covering 21 markers across kidney, liver, lipid, blood sugar and pancreatic function. You give a venous blood sample, either at a clinic or via a nurse home visit; there is no at-home collection option for this test. Once your sample reaches the laboratory, results are typically ready within five days. A doctor's review of your results can be added as an opt-in extra at checkout.
