There are several metabolic and cardiovascular conditions that tie into obesity, and lab professionals support obesity-related care through:
🧪 Metabolic Panels - assessing glucose, electrolytes, kidney, and liver function
🔍 Lipid Profiles - identifying dyslipidemia, a major obesity-related risk
🔬 Hormonal Testing - evaluating thyroid function, insulin levels, cortisol, and other endocrine factors
🧫 Inflammatory Markers - such as CRP, which can be elevated in obesity
🩸Hemoglobin A1c - monitoring long-term glucose control in diabetes, a common comorbidity

Shoutout to all of our Medical Lab Professionals for you hard work and collaboration for our patients!❤️
