What's in the test

Take control of your blood sugar — because early insight can change your future.

What we measure:

  • Glucose is the main type of sugar in your blood and your body's primary energy source.
  • Measuring glucose gives a snapshot of your current blood sugar level.
  • Can help detect diabetes or prediabetes.
  • Reflects your average blood sugar levels over the past 2–3 months.
  • Unlike a single glucose reading, it shows long-term blood sugar control.
  • A reliable marker for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes.
  • The hormone that helps move glucose from the bloodstream into your cells for energy.
  • Measuring insulin levels can show how well your body is handling sugar.
  • Can identify whether insulin resistance (a key feature of type 2 diabetes) may be present.
  • Released in equal amounts to insulin when your body makes its own insulin.
  • Helps distinguish between type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
  • Shows whether your pancreas is still producing insulin effectively.
  • Calculated using glucose and insulin levels (e.g., HOMA-IR).
  • Estimates how well your cells respond to insulin.
  • An early warning sign for metabolic syndrome and Type 2 diabetes.
