The General Wellness Profile 3 panel contains 16 tests with 82 biomarkers.
Brief Description: The General Wellness Profile 3 is the most comprehensive of the General Wellness Profiles. By encompassing a broad spectrum of tests, this profile aims to pinpoint potential health concerns before they escalate, evaluate the body's metabolic functions, gauge the effectiveness of the endocrine system, and assess cardiovascular risk factors. It's an invaluable tool for those seeking an in-depth analysis of their health, offering a granular view of various biomarkers crucial for maintaining well-being.
Collection Method: Blood Draw
Specimen Type: Whole Blood Serum
Test Preparation: Patient should be fasting 9-12 hours prior to collection and collection should be performed in the morning.
Specifc to TSH: Specimen collection after fluorescein dye angiography should be delayed for at least 3 days. For patients on hemodialysis, specimen collection should be delayed for 2 weeks.
According to the assay manufacturer Siemens: "Samples containing fluorescein can produce falsely depressed values when tested with the Advia Centaur TSH3 Ultra assay."
This panel is typically recommended for individuals seeking a thorough health examination. It may be ordered annually as part of a preventive health check-up or when symptoms—ranging from fatigue and weight fluctuations to more specific concerns related to heart health, thyroid dysfunction, or metabolic disorders—necessitate a comprehensive evaluation. Additionally, it serves as an essential follow-up tool for monitoring existing health conditions and the efficacy of ongoing treatments.
While the General Wellness Profile 3 is comprehensive, it represents a part of a continuous journey toward optimal health. This panel is tailored for those already invested in their health who seek to maintain or enhance their wellness strategies. Each test within the panel is a piece in the larger puzzle of health, contributing to a holistic understanding that empowers individuals and their healthcare providers to make informed decisions about lifestyle, diet, and medical interventions.
This advanced profile can detect and aid in the management of a wide array of conditions, including but not limited to:
