What is measured?

This test measures the following biomarker:

  • Insulin

    Insulin is important for using and storing glucose, which is a type of sugar that comes from the food we eat and is the body's main energy source. After eating, food is digested and glucose enters into the bloodstream. Insulin helps move glucose out of the bloodstream into the body's cells, especially muscle cells, to make energy. It also tells the liver to change extra glucose into fat and carbohydrates.

  • HbA1c

    HbA1c is a measure of your blood sugar levels over the last ninety days. When elevated, HbA1c is used to diagnose diabetes and pre-diabetes and can help your healthcare provider to manage diabetes and prediabetes by tracking what your levels are doing over time.

  • eAG

    The EAG test or Estimated Average Glucose test is a calculation of your average blood glucose level over the previous 90 days. It is based upon the HbA1C blood test and helps predict blood sugar levels over time and provides insight into how well your blood glucose levels are managed over time.

  • Glucose

    This checks how much sugar is in your blood after not eating for 8 to 12 hours. It helps find and monitor diabetes and helps you to see how your body handles sugar. High levels can mean you have too much sugar in your bloodstream and may mean you have pre-diabetes or diabetes.

Who should take this test?

This test is suitable for individuals with risk factors or symptoms like excess weight, darkened skin folds, frequent urination, blurry vision, or hormonal issues (females). It also helps identify long-term blood sugar control and can be helpful for:

  • Overweight individuals
  • People with darkened skin folds
  • Those with frequent urination or thirst
  • Individuals with a family history of diabetes
  • People with existing health conditions like high cholesterol or heart disease
  • Anyone seeking insights into blood sugar and metabolic health (18+)
