Measures 14 markers across cholesterol, blood glucose, thyroid, inflammation and key vitamins, aimed at identifying possible barriers to maintaining a healthy weight. Suits anyone wanting a broader metabolic check than a single-marker test.
14 biomarkers as listed by MyHealthChecked.
This test measures 14 markers grouped around metabolism and weight: the standard cholesterol and lipid panel, HbA1c for average blood glucose, thyroid hormones (TSH and free T4), and key vitamins and minerals including B12, vitamin D, ferritin and CRP. The aim is to flag several possible factors, from an underactive thyroid to nutrient deficiencies, that can make maintaining a healthy weight harder.
Against a median of £118 for similarly sized metabolism tests we track, this £119 test is priced almost exactly in line, and its 14 markers sit below the median depth for metabolism tests we track more broadly.
The value for money score is middling, reflecting a price close to the comparable median rather than a clear saving, and clinical depth is similarly middling given the marker count. Results and follow-up scores well because a GP reviews the results and provides recommendations.
This suits anyone who wants a broader metabolic check spanning cholesterol, blood glucose, thyroid and key vitamins as part of exploring possible barriers to weight management, rather than testing one marker at a time. Because it is priced in line with similarly sized metabolism tests rather than below them, it is worth comparing marker-for-marker against other panels if price is the main driver; if you already suspect one specific cause, such as an underactive thyroid, MyHealthChecked's own Thyroid Profile Blood Test would be a cheaper way to check that alone.
You take a finger-prick blood sample at home and post it to MyHealthChecked's UK laboratory. Results are ready in 2 to 3 working days, and a GP reviews them and provides recommendations to support nutrition and lifestyle changes.
For £119, this test measures 14 markers spanning cholesterol, HbA1c blood glucose, thyroid hormones, inflammation and key vitamins, with GP-reviewed results and recommendations. It is priced almost exactly at the £118 median for similarly sized metabolism tests we track, so it neither undercuts nor outprices its peers on cost.
