Metabolic Weight Loss Check

$349 AUD

$450 AUD

Regular blood tests can help identify hormonal, metabolic or nutritional imbalances that may be sabotaging your weight loss goals. Coupled with a personalised teleconsult with our experienced dietician, these assessments provide valuable insights and tailored guidance for your weight-loss journey.

Maintaining a healthy weight involves both art and science

When it comes to weight loss, one size doesn't fit all. Your metabolism and dietary needs are influenced by a number of factors including:

how your body uses insulin to optimise your blood sugar and energy levels
how your thyroid function regulates your energy expenditure
how well your liver metabolises fat

Issues with your body's metabolic pathways can not only sabotage your weight loss goals but can also contribute to a broader range of chronic health issues. The Metabolic Weight Loss Check combines insights from these blood markers with a teleconsultation with our experienced dietitian to help you understand your results and discuss personalised strategies for optimising your nutrition and supporting your weight loss journey.

What we test

Metabolic

Insulin resistance can lead to difficulty losing weight, distinct abdominal fat, fatigue, bloating and sugar cravings. Identifying insulin resistance early and committing to lifestyle changes can ultimately help the progression to diabetes.

Thyroid Function

Your thyroid gland produces hormones that regulate growth and energy expenditure. Thyroid disorders are quite common, and many people don’t have any symptoms at all. This thyroid test screens for the thyroid hormones that play a key role in regulating the body’s metabolism.

This thyroid test measures:

Adrenocortex Function (serum)

Cortisol and DHEA-S play important roles in regulating physiological processes in the body. Cortisol has a catabolic effect which mobilises the body’s nutritional resources for fuel. DHEA-S has an opposing anabolic effect and converts food into living tissue. In order to achieve your fitness goals cortisol and DHEA-S must be in proper balance.

Hormones

Hormonal imbalances can hinder weight loss efforts - understanding your oestrogen and testosterone levels may provide further insights.

Cholesterol

Lipids and cholesterol are fat-like substances in your blood. Some are necessary for good health, but when you have a high level of cholesterol in your blood, a lot of it ends up being deposited in the walls of your arteries and other vital organs. Lifestyle choices including diet, exercise and alcohol intake can all influence cholesterol levels and your risk of developing heart disease.

This cholesterol test measures:

Liver Function (LFTs)

Your liver processes drugs and alcohol, filters toxic chemicals, stores vitamins and minerals, and makes bile, proteins and enzymes. This liver function test examines enzymes and other markers for evidence of damage to your liver cells or a blockage near your liver which can impair its function.

This liver function test measures:

High sensitivity CRP (hsCRP)

The hsCRP test is a highly sensitive quantification of CRP, a protein released into the blood by the liver during inflammation, and has been associated with the presence of heart disease.

This blood test measures:

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is essential for bone strength as it helps the intestines absorb calcium. Calcium and vitamin D play a critical role in developing and maintaining your overall bone health, and when you don’t get enough you increase your risk of developing osteoporosis and the incidence of stress fractures.

This vitamin D test measures:
