Who is the Men’s Health Blood Test panel best for?

The Mens Health blood test panel is for men who want to check in on a regular basis to ensure that the major factors affecting their overall health, wellness, vitality and energy are all being maintained to a good level. 

What makes the My Vital Metrics Men’s Health Blood Test unique?

Unlike most clinics or GPs, we go beyond the numbers. Once we have the results of your blood panel, you’ll receive a full report detailing your results, including comments from a GP. Then, you’ll be invited for a 30 minute 1-on-1 call with our registered nutritionist.

In this call, the nutritionist will walk you through your blood test results and contextualise these in relation to your lifestyle and specific circumstances. This will form the basis of personalised recommendations for which results you may want to prioritise, and which are not a concern based on your lifestyle.

Unique results from the Men’s Health Blood Test

Advanced Minerals Metrics

The men’s health test is one of the only tests to cover magnesium status. This important mineral is involved in a number of areas relating to sleep, recovery, strength and even the regular and consistent beating of the heart.

Testosterone

As the key hormone governing a number of functions for men, testosterone is important to keep a track of over time. This test calls out testosterone as a whole, though for a more complete picture, the Optimal health blood test, or the sports performance blood test will break out the real levels of available testosterone in the body.
