VALENS PRECISION PANEL — WHAT WE TEST AND WHY IT MATTERS
This isn’t just a blood test. It’s a deep look into the systems that control your energy, weight, mood, libido, strength, and long-term health. Each biomarker tells us something important about how your body is performing — and where it may need support.
1️⃣ Metabolic Health – HbA1c
What it shows:
Your average blood sugar levels over the last 3 months.
Why it matters:
High HbA1c means your body isn’t managing sugar properly, which can lead to weight gain, fatigue, inflammation, and diabetes. This is often the first warning sign of metabolic burnout.
2️⃣ Heart & Cholesterol Profile
What we measure: Total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides and more.
Why it matters:
Your heart health isn’t just about one number. This profile shows:
Your risk of heart disease
How well you burn or store fat
Whether inflammation is damaging your arteries
If your cholesterol is protective (HDL) or harmful (non-HDL)
Many men feel fine while these markers quietly deteriorate — until it’s too late. This panel stops that from happening.
3️⃣ Thyroid Function
What we test: TSH, Free T3, Free T4.
Why it matters:
Your thyroid is your body’s engine. When it slows, you slow. Poor thyroid performance causes:
⬇️ Low energy
⬆️ Weight gain
🔥 Feeling cold
🧠 Brain fog
😔 Low mood
Thyroid imbalance often hides under the radar — we find it early.
4️⃣ Vitamin D
What it shows:
Whether your vitamin D levels support immunity, hormones, bones, and mood.
Why it matters:
Low Vitamin D is extremely common in men in the UK and Ireland. It affects testosterone levels, sleep, fatigue, and motivation — even if you don’t feel unwell.
5️⃣ Prostate Marker (PSA)
Why it matters:
This gives essential insight into prostate health, inflammation, and future risk. It’s an early safety net — especially as men age.
6️⃣ Liver Function
Why it matters:
Your liver processes hormones, medication, alcohol, and toxins. If it's overworked, you may experience:
Weight around the middle
Poor testosterone levels
Fatigue and brain fog
Difficulty losing fat
We identify early signs of stress before a GP would ever flag it.
7️⃣ Kidney Function & Electrolytes
Why it matters:
This tells us how well your body filters waste, hydrates, and regulates blood pressure — crucial before considering any medication.
8️⃣ Hormonal Profile
What we test: Testosterone, free testosterone, SHBG, and DHEA-S.
Why it matters:
These hormones control:
💪 Muscle strength
🔥 Metabolism
❤️ Libido and erections
🧠 Confidence and drive
😴 Sleep and recovery
Low levels — even within the “normal range” — cause men to feel older than they are. Most have never been checked.
9️⃣ Cortisol (Stress Hormone)
Why it matters:
Chronic stress drains testosterone, increases belly fat, disrupts sleep, and affects mood. Cortisol patterns explain why some men don’t improve despite exercise and diet.
🔟 Full Blood Count
Why it matters:
This gives a snapshot of your immune system, energy levels, oxygen capacity, and inflammation. It helps us detect:
Fatigue causes
Immune stress
Recovery issues
Early disease signals
It’s one of the most powerful early-warning tools in medicine.
In summary
The Valens Precision Panel doesn’t just tell you where you are — it tells you why you feel the way you do and what you can do about it.
It identifies:
✔️ Hidden hormonal issues
✔️ Silent cardiovascular risks
✔️ Early diabetic changes
✔️ Stress-induced hormonal disruption
✔️ Metabolic dysfunction
✔️ Vitamin and nutrient gaps
All of which can be corrected with personalised medical treatment and lifestyle support.
