The Active Woman’s Health Values
€ 164.00
The LOUNA Active Woman’s Health Values package provides you with wide-ranging data on the well-being and balance of your body.
The package has been tailor-made to examine the impact of physical strain on an active woman’s body, as well as the performance and resilience of the body. The package measures the levels of folate and B12, which are important for women, as well as creatine kinase and aspartate aminotransferase, which affect muscle metabolism. Short-acting sugar is also examined.
The levels of calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D, which affect performance and recovery, are also examined as part of the package. The sodium and potassium levels reflect the body’s salt balance. The package also includes a measurement of so-called storage iron (ferritin). The liver count included in the package provides information on the metabolism and protein production of your body, and the kidney function levels reveal information about your fluid and salt balance.
The package is ideal for both one-off and regular monitoring. By monitoring your personal well-being, you are able to make daily choices that support your health and performance, and help you feel better.
Tests included
Blood count
Red blood cell count
The number of red blood cells (B-Eryt)
Hemoglobin
Haemoglobin (Hb) measures the amount of the oxygen-delivering protein in the blood.
Hematocrit
Haematocrit (B-Hkr)
Leukocytes
The number of white blood cells (B-Leuk). B-Leuk is part of the Complete blood count and Basic blood count.
Basic blood count and thrombocytes
Basic blood count and thrombocytes provides an overview of red and white blood cells and platelets.
Platelets
Trombocytes (B-Trom) is part of the Complete blood count and Basic blood count.
The average amount of hemoglobin in red blood cells
Mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) measures the amount of oxygen-delivering haemoglobin in the red blood cells. MCH is part of the Complete blood count and Basic blood count.
Avarage hemoglobin concentration in red blood cells
Mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration E-MCHC. MCHC is part of the Complete blood count and Basic blood count.
Medium erythrocyte volume
Mean corpuscular volume (E-MCV). MCV is part of the Complete blood count and Basic blood count.
Blood sugar
B -Hemoglobiini-A1c
Hemoglobin A1c indicates long-term blood sugar.
Glucose
Blood sugar, also known as glucose is one of the most important sources of energy for the body. We mainly obtain glucose from food, but cells can also produce it.
Vitamins
Folate
Folate affects the well-being of the brain and cells. Folate is water-soluble vitamin B9 that is obtained from food and produced by gut microbes.
Active vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is needed in the production of red blood cells and the functioning of the nervous system.
Vitamin D25
Vitamin D is essential to people. Almost all tissue needs it, in addition to which vitamin D is required for the absorption of calcium and phosphate.
Kidneys and urinary tract
Glomerular filtration rate
The state of the kidneys can be assessed based on filtration rate.
Creatinine
Creatinine indicates kidney function.
Liver
ALAT (Alanine transaminase)
ALAT (alanine aminotransferase) is an indicator of liver cell damage.
ASAT (Aspartate transaminase)
ASAT (aspartate aminotransferase) reacts quickly to liver, cardiac muscle, and musculoskeletal cell damage.
Micro-nutrients and minerals
Calcium
Calcium is needed by all of the cells in the body. 99 per cent of the calcium in the body is in the bones, where it functions as a strong mineral.
Potassium
Potassium is an essential mineral that is involved in the metabolism of the kidneys, central nervous system, heart, and muscles.
Magnesium
Magnesium is needed in metabolic events.
Sodium
Sodium is one of the most important salts in the body, and it is present in all bodily fluids.
Bones and muscles
Creatine kinase
Creatine kinase increases with muscle damage.
Inflammation and infections
CRP, sensitive
CRP is short for C-reactive protein (S-CRP). In healthy individuals, the liver continuously produces small amounts of CRP. Its amount increases considerably in connection with infections, inflammation, and tissue damage in the body.
Iron
Ferritin
Ferritin indicates the status of the iron reserves
Heart and blood vessels
Total cholesterol
Cholesterol is a lipid that, being insoluble in water, is transported in the bloodstream in ball-like lipoproteins made up of transport proteins and lipids.
HDL cholesterol
Low HDL cholesterol increases the risk of developing a cardiovascular disease.
LDL cholesterol
LDL cholesterol reflects the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Cholesterol
Lipids are an indicator of the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Triglycerides
Triglycerides serve as an energy reserve (S-Trigly)
Thyroid
Thyrotropin (TSH)
Thyrotropin is a hormone regulating the functions of the thyroid. The test is performed when a thyroid disorder is suspected.
Preparation
Fasting is required
Paastoa vaativissa tutkimuksissa tulee olla syömättä ja juomatta 10–12 tuntia ennen verikoetta. Tarvittaessa tuona aikana voi juoda lasin vettä.
Paastoverikokeet suosittelemme otettavaksi kello 8–10 välisenä aikana. Lue muista suosituksista täältä.
Diabeetikot noudattavat lääkäriltä saamaansa ohjeistusta paaston suhteen.
