What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing fatigue, unexplained swelling, changes in appetite, or you just want a general check of how your body is running. It's also a good fit if you have risk factors for diabetes, liver problems, or kidney issues and want a baseline snapshot of your health. Many people use this panel as part of a routine wellness check even without symptoms.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results show up in your online account with each value's normal range clearly explained, so you can see right away if something is outside the expected zone. Depending on what comes back, next steps might include simple diet or lifestyle changes, cutting back on salt or sugar, staying hydrated, or retesting in a few months to track a trend. If a value comes back significantly abnormal, seek medical care promptly. You can download a standard lab report anytime, and the trends feature lets you compare results over multiple tests to see how your body changes over time.

What's included in this test?

This panel measures sodium, potassium, chloride, carbon dioxide (bicarbonate), glucose, calcium (with adjusted calcium), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), albumin, total bilirubin, total protein, alkaline phosphatase, AST, and ALT. Together these markers cover electrolyte balance, blood sugar, kidney function, liver function, and acid-base balance. Checking them as a group helps paint a fuller picture of your metabolic health rather than looking at just one number in isolation.

How can I naturally support kidney and liver health?

Staying well hydrated, limiting alcohol, cutting back on processed and salty foods, and keeping a healthy weight all help your kidneys and liver work efficiently. Regular movement and a diet rich in vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein also support healthy blood sugar and electrolyte balance. Avoiding unnecessary over-the-counter pain medications can also reduce strain on these organs.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your lab visit. Once processed, they're automatically posted to your online account where you can view and download them. You'll be able to see each marker along with its reference range right away.

Who should consider this test?

Anyone wanting a general health check, people with risk factors like high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of kidney or liver disease, and those just starting a new diet or medication that could affect these organs. It's also useful for people who feel consistently tired, bloated, or off but aren't sure why. Athletes and people on high-protein diets sometimes use it to keep an eye on kidney function too.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Fatigue, swelling in the legs or feet, changes in urination, nausea, loss of appetite, or yellowing of the skin or eyes can all be signs worth checking with this panel. Unexplained weight changes or excessive thirst can also point to blood sugar or electrolyte issues. If you notice several of these together, it's a good reason to get tested.

What does high glucose mean?

A high glucose reading can mean your body isn't managing blood sugar well, which over time raises the risk of diabetes. Simple steps like cutting back on sugary drinks and refined carbs, moving more, and losing excess weight can help bring levels down. If your glucose comes back very high, it's important to seek medical care to rule out diabetes.

What does low albumin mean?

Low albumin can point to liver or kidney issues, poor nutrition, or inflammation somewhere in the body. Eating enough protein and addressing any underlying digestive issues can sometimes help improve levels over time. Retesting is a good way to see if the number improves with lifestyle changes.

How often should I retest this panel?

If your results are all within normal range, retesting once a year as part of a routine check is usually enough. If something was borderline or abnormal, retesting every 3 to 6 months can help you see if lifestyle changes are making a difference. Anyone managing a chronic condition affecting these organs may want to test more frequently.
