Individual blood values

Vitamin D

40,-

Vitamin D plays a role in bone strength, muscle function and the immune system. A measurement provides insight into your 25-OH vitamin D level, with personal explanation by our doctors.

Vitamin B12

30,-

Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) plays a role in the production of red blood cells and the functioning of the nervous system. A test gives insight into your B12 level, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Folic Acid

Vitamin A

60,-

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin with a role in vision, the skin, and the immune system. Because the body stores vitamin A, the level can also become too high with excessive supplementation.

Vitamin B1

50,-

Vitamin B6

50,-

Ferritin

30,-

Ferritin reflects the amount of iron stored in the body. A test gives insight into your iron stores, with personal explanation from our doctors.

20,-

Serum iron is the amount of iron circulating in your blood at the moment of the blood draw. A test gives insight into that circulating iron, as part of the broader picture of your iron status.

Thyroid

40,-

The thyroid regulates your metabolism, energy, and body temperature. With TSH and Free T4, you get a clear overview of thyroid function, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Anti-TPO

55,-

Anti-TPO are antibodies against the thyroid enzyme thyroid peroxidase. Their presence fits with an autoimmune thyroid condition such as Hashimoto's, and gives context to an abnormal thyroid result.

Free T3

55,-

Free T3 is the most active thyroid hormone, largely formed from T4 in the tissues. A test adds to TSH and Free T4 and gives insight into the hormone that does the work inside the cells.

Free T4

40,-

Free T4 is the thyroid hormone thyroxine that circulates in your blood unbound to protein, and is therefore available to the tissues. A test gives insight into what your thyroid itself produces.

Testosterone

40,-

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and plays a role in muscle mass, energy, libido, and mood. A test gives insight into your level, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Cortisol

40,-

Cortisol is a hormone that plays a role in stress, energy, and metabolism, among other things. A morning measurement gives insight into your cortisol level, with personal explanation from our doctors.

DHEA-S

50,-

DHEA-S is an adrenal hormone that serves as a precursor for the sex hormones. The level declines gradually with age and gives insight into the androgen production of the adrenal gland.

FSH

40,-

FSH is a hormone from the pituitary gland that drives the maturation of the follicles in women and plays a role in sperm production in men. With personal explanation from our doctors.

LH

40,-

LH is a hormone from the pituitary gland that drives the sex glands. In men LH stimulates testosterone production, in women LH peaks around ovulation. With personal explanation from our doctors.

Oestradiol

40,-

Oestradiol (E2) is the most important oestrogen and plays a role in the menstrual cycle, the bones, and the menopause. In women the level fluctuates considerably across the cycle, so the moment of testing partly determines the result.

Progesterone

40,-

Progesterone is formed after ovulation and prepares the womb lining. The level depends strongly on the point in the cycle, which is why testing usually takes place during the second half of the cycle.

Prolactin

40,-

Prolactin is a hormone from the pituitary gland, known for breastfeeding, but present in men as well. An elevated level can affect the cycle or libido, and is often temporary in nature.

SHBG

40,-

SHBG is the transport protein that binds sex hormones in your blood. The level of SHBG helps determine how much testosterone remains freely available, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Free testosterone

80,-

Free testosterone is the portion of your testosterone that is not bound to protein and is therefore biologically available. This measurement helps to interpret your total testosterone level, with personal explanation from our doctors.

PSA

55,-

PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) is a protein produced by the prostate. The level provides information about the prostate and is often measured as part of prostate monitoring.

HbA1c

30,-

HbA1c gives a picture of your average blood sugar over the past 2–3 months. A test provides insight into your blood sugar regulation, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Glucose

20,-

Glucose is your blood sugar level at the moment of the blood draw. Measured while fasting, it gives insight into the way your body regulates blood sugar.

Insulin

40,-

Insulin is the hormone from the pancreas that lowers blood sugar. Measured while fasting, it gives additional insight alongside glucose and HbA1c, for example with questions about sensitivity to insulin. Fasting is required.

Cholesterol

20,-

The cholesterol profile, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides, provides insight into your cardiovascular risk factors, with personal explanation from our doctors.

HDL cholesterol

20,-

HDL cholesterol carries excess cholesterol back to the liver, which is why it is often called "good cholesterol". A test provides insight into your HDL level, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Homocysteine

120,-

Homocysteine is an amino acid whose elevated level is associated with cardiovascular risk factors and B vitamin status. A test provides insight, with personal explanation from our doctors.

LDL cholesterol

20,-

LDL cholesterol is the cholesterol that can settle in the artery wall, which gives it a central role in the risk of cardiovascular disease. A test provides insight into your LDL level, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Triglycerides

20,-

Triglycerides are the fats the body stores as energy. The level is strongly influenced by your last meal and by alcohol, and is linked to lifestyle, weight, and blood sugar regulation.

CRP

CRP (C-reactive protein) is the most widely used marker for detecting inflammation in the body. A test gives insight into your current inflammatory status, with personal explanation from our doctors.

Zinc

45,-

Zinc is a mineral with a role in immune defence, wound healing, the skin, and taste. A serum zinc measurement gives insight into the zinc level in your blood.

Creatinine + eGFR

35,-

Creatinine and eGFR together give insight into the filtration function of your kidneys. The eGFR is calculated based on your creatinine level, among other factors.

Potassium

20,-

Potassium is an electrolyte found mainly inside the cells that plays a role in the signal conduction of muscles and the heart. A test gives insight into the potassium level in your blood.

Sodium

20,-

Sodium is the most important electrolyte outside the cells and helps determine the fluid balance. A test gives insight into the water and salt balance in your blood.

Bilirubin is a breakdown product of red blood cells that is processed by the liver and leaves the body through bile. A test gives insight into how your liver processes bilirubin.

Gamma-GT + ALP

35,-

Gamma-GT and alkaline phosphatase are enzymes that point more towards the bile ducts than towards the liver cells. Together they give insight into the drainage of bile.

Liver enzymes
