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
A 20-marker blood test framed around metabolic health, covering blood sugar, cholesterol, thyroid and vitamin status. Uses the same panel as several other Numan tests, priced below the typical cost for tests of this size in this category.
20 biomarkers as listed by Numan.
The Complete Metabolic Health Blood Test measures 20 biomarkers: blood sugar control (HbA1c), thyroid hormones (TSH and free T4), cholesterol and lipids, kidney function (creatinine, eGFR, urea), liver function (ALT, ALP, GGT), iron and vitamin status (ferritin, vitamin B12, vitamin D, folate), albumin and total testosterone. HbA1c and thyroid hormones are the markers most directly tied to metabolism, with the others adding wider organ and nutritional context.
It is the same 20-marker panel as four other Numan tests we reviewed, including the Complete Blood Test, Complete Cardiovascular Blood Test, Complete Hormone Blood Test and Complete Sexual Performance Blood Test, all priced at £118. What differs here is the framing around metabolism and weight rather than any extra markers.
Against the metabolism tests we track that are similarly sized, its clinical depth score is more middling, since some other tests in that space carry more markers proportionally, but its value for money scores well: £118 comes in below the typical cost for tests of this size in the category. clarity and documentation and results and follow-up score the same as Numan's other tests, reflecting the detailed listing and standard doctor review.
This suits you if your main interest is metabolic health, weight or blood sugar, and you want that framing on your results rather than a general or heart-focused version of the same test. It is one of the better-value versions of this panel among the tests we track for its category, though buying it alongside another Numan Complete test would just duplicate the same 20 results.
If you want a narrower version with fewer markers, Numan's own Core Blood Test covers 16 of the same markers, including thyroid and cholesterol, for £88, £30 less, though it excludes HbA1c and vitamin B12.
You collect the sample at home with a finger-prick kit, or a Tasso+ upper-arm device for an extra £10. The sample is processed at Numan's UKAS ISO 15189 accredited partner labs, with results typically ready in 3 to 5 days and a doctor reviewing your results before you receive them.
This test screens 20 biomarkers covering blood sugar, cholesterol, thyroid hormones and vitamin status, marketed around metabolic health and weight. It shares its panel with four other Numan Complete tests, all priced at £118, which here comes in below the typical cost of similarly sized metabolism tests we track. Results are reviewed by a doctor within 3 to 5 days.

Organ and metabolic monitoring panel for Ozempic users
This 21-marker panel checks liver, kidney, lipid and blood sugar markers alongside lipase, designed for people taking Ozempic (semaglutide) who want to monitor how their body is responding to treatment.
21-marker Dulaglutide monitoring panel
A 21-marker blood panel that checks kidney function, liver function, cholesterol, blood sugar (HbA1c) and pancreas health, aimed at people taking the GLP-1 medication Dulaglutide (Trulicity). Suits ongoing monitoring rather than a first general health check.
