GPT opt. (ALAT)
Der Biomarker GPT (auch bekannt als ALAT) ist ein Enzym, das hauptsächlich in der Leber vorkommt. Ein erhöhter GPT-Spiegel im Blut kann auf Leberschäden hinweisen, wie z.B. bei Leberentzündungen oder Lebererkrankungen. Daher ist die Bestimmung des GPT-Wertes ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Leberfunktionsdiagnostik und kann bei der Früherkennung und Überwachung von Lebererkrankungen helfen.
Calcium
Calcium ist ein wichtiger Biomarker im Körper, der für die Knochengesundheit, Muskelkontraktion und Blutgerinnung entscheidend ist. Ein zu hoher oder zu niedriger Calciumspiegel im Blut kann zu schwerwiegenden gesundheitlichen Problemen führen. Daher ist es wichtig, den Calciumspiegel regelmäßig zu überwachen und bei Bedarf zu korrigieren.
HDL- Cholesterin
HDL-Cholesterin, auch bekannt als gutes Cholesterin, ist ein wichtiger Biomarker für die Gesundheit des Herzens. Ein hoher HDL-Spiegel im Blut ist mit einem geringeren Risiko für Herzkrankheiten verbunden, da es hilft, überschüssiges Cholesterin aus den Arterien zu entfernen. Eine gesunde Lebensweise mit regelmäßiger körperlicher Aktivität und einer ausgewogenen Ernährung kann dazu beitragen, den HDL-Spiegel zu erhöhen und das Risiko für Herzkrankheiten zu verringern.
Cholesterin
Cholesterin ist ein wichtiger Biomarker für das Risiko von Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen. Ein hoher Cholesterin-Wert kann auf eine erhöhte Ablagerung von Cholesterin in den Arterien hinweisen, was zu Arteriosklerose und anderen Herzproblemen führen kann. Es ist wichtig, den Cholesterin-Wert regelmäßig zu überwachen und durch eine gesunde Ernährung und regelmäßige körperliche Aktivität zu kontrollieren.
Gamma-GT (G-GT)
Gamma-GT (G-GT) ist ein wichtiger Biomarker für Lebererkrankungen und alkoholbedingte Schäden. Ein erhöhter G-GT-Wert im Blut kann auf Leberprobleme hinweisen, wie z.B. Fettleber, Hepatitis oder Leberzirrhose. Es ist auch ein Indikator für übermäßigen Alkoholkonsum. Die regelmäßige Überwachung des G-GT-Werts ist daher wichtig für die Früherkennung und Behandlung von Lebererkrankungen.
Triglyceride
Triglyceride sind eine Art von Fettmolekülen, die im Körper als Energiereserve gespeichert werden. Ein hoher Triglyceridspiegel im Blut kann auf ein erhöhtes Risiko für Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen hinweisen. Daher ist die regelmäßige Überwachung dieses Biomarkers wichtig, um das Risiko von Herzinfarkt und Schlaganfall zu reduzieren.
HbA1c
Hämoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ist ein wichtiger Biomarker zur Langzeitkontrolle des Blutzuckerspiegels bei Diabetikern. Er gibt Auskunft über den durchschnittlichen Blutzuckerspiegel der letzten 2-3 Monate und ist daher ein wichtiger Indikator für die Diabetesbehandlung und -kontrolle. Ein erhöhter HbA1c-Wert kann auf eine unzureichende Blutzuckereinstellung hinweisen und das Risiko für Diabeteskomplikationen erhöhen.

After never being able to bring myself to make an appointment with my doctor, I finally checked my HbA1c level with Probatix.

I got a voucher by chance and didn't know what to think of it at first. But then I noticed how easy it is to incorporate the test into everyday life. I've already given two vouchers to friends - they were also thrilled!
