Details about Metabolic Syndrome Extended
Metabolic syndrome is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, obesity, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Many people develop metabolic dysfunction silently, long before symptoms such as weight gain, fatigue, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or elevated blood sugar appear.
The Metabolic Syndrome Extended Profile provides an in-depth analysis of your cardiovascular, metabolic, and diabetic health markers. With a wide range of advanced lipid tests, inflammation markers, and metabolic hormones, this panel helps you identify risks early and take control of your long-term health.
Ideal for individuals experiencing weight changes, slow metabolism, high blood pressure, insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, or anyone wanting a full preventative health screen.

Follow these guidelines for accurate results
Sample Timing
Where possible, attend your blood test between 7am and 12pm. Please wait until any short-term illness or infection has fully resolved before testing. Avoid intense exercise for 24–48 hours beforehand, as this can affect certain markers.
Fasting & Hydration
Fasting is not always required, but some tests may recommend it. If fasting is advised, avoid food for 8–12 hours before your appointment and drink water only. Stay well hydrated, as this helps with sample collection and accuracy.
Medications & Supplements
Continue prescribed medications unless advised otherwise by your clinician. Avoid vitamin, mineral, or biotin supplements for at least 24–48 hours before your test, as these can interfere with results. If you are unsure about any medication or supplement, please let us know before your appointment.
Hormones & Menstrual Cycle
For hormone-related tests, timing within your menstrual cycle may be important. If relevant, follow any specific guidance provided on your test page.
If you have any questions or special circumstances, our team is happy to advise before your appointment.
