Know the severity of your risk
Linked to detrimental conditions like dementia, infertility, and depression; get your health back in balance by taking a Homocysteine Test to better understand your risk of developing a life-changing condition.
Prevention is better than cure
A naturally-occurring amino acid, homocysteine is a derivative of protein that is found in blood plasma, leading to out-of-balance body chemistry which has been linked to a number of conditions, such as dementia.
The body’s metabolism is capable of removing homocysteine within the body. However, if you’re nutrient-deficient, genetically predisposed, or lead a poor lifestyle, the body can struggle to normalise your level.
Get back in balance
Once your results arrive directly on your doorstep, you’ll have the know-how on taking control of your health by making simple dietary changes or vitamin supplementation. Understanding your current level and the effect this can have on your health is important in knowing how to make improvements to your wellbeing; listening to your body and taking control.
