Fasting before certain blood tests helps ensure the most accurate and reliable results.

When you eat or drink, especially foods high in fat or sugar, it can temporarily affect the levels of glucose, cholesterol, and other substances in your blood. By fasting, usually for 8 to 12 hours, we get a clear picture of your baseline health without interference from recent meals. This helps your healthcare provider make the best decisions for your care.

Always follow the fasting instructions provided to get the most precise results from your tests.

A common misconception is that lab tests are only needed when you feel unwell. In reality, routine testing is a key part of proactive and preventive healthcare.

MyLab Check offers a comprehensive overview of your overall health, helping to detect hidden issues early, often before any symptoms develop. Early detection leads to timely treatment and better long-term outcomes. Regular lab tests give you and your healthcare provider the information needed to make smart, informed decisions about your health.

Make MyLab Check a regular part of your health routine. It’s one of the smartest steps you can take.

Know Your Cortisol, your Body’s Stress Signal

Cortisol is your body’s main stress hormone, released by your adrenal glands to help manage how you respond to physical and emotional stress. It also plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, blood pressure, immune response, energy levels, and your sleep-wake cycle. But when cortisol levels are out of balance, whether too high or too low, it can lead to a wide range of symptoms:
• Constant fatigue and brain fog
• Trouble sleeping or staying asleep
• Unexplained weight gain, especially around the midsection
• Anxiety, mood swings, or irritability
• Low immunity and frequent illness
• Hormonal imbalances and irregular cycles

If you’ve been feeling off but can’t explain why, your cortisol could be the missing piece. It is one of the most overlooked but powerful indicators of how your body is really coping. A simple lab test can reveal your cortisol levels and help identify hidden stress imbalances before they affect your long-term health.

Know your cortisol. Listen to your body. Prioritize your wellness.

Know Your APO A and APO B for a Deeper Look into Heart Health

Apolipoproteins A (APO A) and B (APO B) are essential proteins that play a crucial role in transporting cholesterol throughout your bloodstream. Unlike traditional cholesterol tests that only measure cholesterol amounts, APO A and APO B levels provide a more precise understanding of your cardiovascular risk. APO A is associated with, good cholesterol that helps protect your arteries, while APO B is linked to, bad cholesterol that can contribute to plaque buildup and increase the risk of heart disease.

High levels of APO B or low levels of APO A may indicate a greater chance of heart attack, stroke, or other cardiovascular problems even if your regular cholesterol tests appear normal. Knowing your APO A and APO B levels empowers you and your healthcare provider to make better decisions about your heart health, including lifestyle changes and treatment options.

Take a proactive step today. Your heart will thank you.

Are You Getting Enough Vitamin D?

Vitamin D is more than just the ‘sunshine vitamin’. It is essential for strong bones, a resilient immune system, balanced mood, and overall well-being. Despite its importance, vitamin D deficiency is incredibly common, especially for people who spend most of their time indoors or have limited sun exposure. Low levels of vitamin D can contribute to fatigue, frequent infections, muscle weakness, bone pain, and an increased risk of chronic conditions.

The only way to know for sure is through a simple blood test. Knowing your vitamin D status empowers you to take the right steps. Whether that means lifestyle changes, diet adjustments, or supplements, staying informed helps you feel your best and protect your long-term health.

Prioritize your wellness. Get tested and take control of your health.

July is Bone Cancer Awareness Month

This month, we come together to stand with those fighting bone cancer, support the warriors, honor
the survivors, and remember those we've lost. Though bone cancer is rare, its impact is powerful and
deeply felt. Early detection can save lives. Be aware of the signs: persistent bone pain, swelling, or
unexplained fractures. If something doesn’t feel right, trust your instincts and talk to a healthcare
provider.

Awareness is strength. Support is hope.

Together, we spread the message that awareness creates survivors.
