Did you know?
1 in every 100,000 is born with the immune system disease called severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), or 'bubble boy disease' — this means their body is unable to fight off infections.
Decode your sample in 3 steps.
1. Order your kit
Choose the test which suits you best and order online. There are lots of different delivery options to suit how urgently you need the test. Choose the option which suits you best at checkout. If you order before 3pm your order will be dispatched on the same day.
2. Send your sample
Once you receive your kit, take the sample by following the instruction manual. We also have videos available to make the process easier. Place the sample in the package and send off to the lab. Check out more on the Shipment & Returns page.
3. Download your reports
Your results will be processed within 24 hours from the time they are received by the lab. You will get a notification to your email once the report is ready! Then you can access the report and even book an appointment with one of our partners if you need more information.
Essential Vitamins
Vitamins play a key role in a healthy nervous system, energy levels, immune system and general wellbeing. A lack of vitamins can lead to affected mood, sleep disturbance, fitness and general aches and pain. Our test will cover the key vitamins that are necessary for your overall health.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that primarily aids calcium absorption, promoting growth and mineralisation of your bones. Vitamin D does not really behave like a vitamin, rather it functions more like a hormone. It helps maintain strong and healthy bones by regulating calcium and phosphorus. It is also involved in different functions of your immune system, digestive, circulatory, nervous systems, whilst also affecting ageing.
Vitamin B12 & Active B12
Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin that your body cannot produce. It is found in animal products and also added to some foods. Vitamin B12 has many important functions in your body. It is required for the production of red blood cells, DNA synthesis, and tissue repair. Because Vitamin B12 is commonly found in animal products, individuals following a vegetarian or vegan diet may require supplementation. An active B12 test measures the amount of B12 that available for your body to use.
Vitamin B9 (folate)
Folate, or folic acid, is a type of B vitamin. It helps to make DNA, repair DNA, and produce red blood cells. If you do not have enough folate in your diet, you may end up with a folate deficiency. This can occur in just a few weeks. Deficiencies may also occur if you have a disease or genetic mutation that prevents your body from absorbing or converting folate to its usable form. Folate deficiency can cause anaemia.
Inflammation
Inflammation refers to your body's process of fighting against things that harm it, such as infections, injuries, and toxins, in an attempt to heal itself. When something damages your cells, your body releases chemicals that trigger a response from your immune system. This test will help you find out how your body is dealing with inflammation.
High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a protein produced by the liver in response to inflammation. A high level of CRP in the blood is a marker of inflammation that can be caused by a wide variety of conditions, from infections to chronic conditions. For women taking birth control pills, CRP may be elevated. A hs-CRP test is more sensitive than a standard test and can also be used to evaluate your risk of developing coronary artery disease (narrowing of your arteries).

Full blood count
A weak or compromised immune system can be dangerous, and there could be different reasons why you might find yourself getting ill or having to go to the GP more often. This test will provide you wirh an extensive reading of how well your immune system is coping and what needs to be done to keep it strong.
Red blood cells
Red blood cells, also referred to as erythrocytes, are the most common type of blood cells. Red blood cells contain a protein called haemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body.
Mean corpuscular volume (MCV)
MCV is the average size of red blood cells. A smaller size may be a sign of iron deficiency, while larger sizes indicate vitamin B12 or folate deficiencies.
Mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH)
MCH is the average amount of haemoglobin in a single red blood cell. A low number may be a sign of iron deficiency, while a high number indicates vitamin B12 or folate deficiency.
Mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC)
MCHC refers to the average concentration of haemoglobin in red blood cells. A low number may be a sign of iron deficiency, while a high number often indicates sickle cell disease or hereditary spherocytosis.
Red cell distribution width (RDW)
RDW is a measurement of the variation of red blood cell sizes. A low number typically is not a cause of concern. A high number often indicates iron deficiency, vitamin B12 or folate deficiency, or a recent blood loss.
Mean platelet volume (MPV)
Mean platelet volume is the average size of platelets. Newer platelets tend to be larger than older ones. A low number may indicate aplastic anemia or thrombocytopenia. A high number is often an indication of certain inherited disorders.
Platelets
Platelets help stop bleeding by promoting blood clotting. A low platelet count may indicate conditions such as bone marrow failure, viral infections, lupus, pernicious anemia (due to vitamin B12 deficiency), or affects of certain medications. A high platelet count may indicate leukaemia, inflammatory conditions, or myeloproliferative disorders (a disease that causes an abnormal growth of blood cells in the bone marrow).
