It is recommended to repeat this test annually to monitor changes in your health and wellness. Having knowledge of your health through regular blood tests can help individuals make informed decisions about your lifestyle and health, and provide early detection and treatment of any potential health problems.

Abnormal results on these tests can indicate various health problems such as liver disease, thyroid disorders, kidney disease, heart disease, or a deficiency in Vitamin B12 or Vitamin D. These results should be discussed with a doctor who can further evaluate and diagnose the issue and provide appropriate treatment. Raised Magnesium levels may indicate over-supplementation.

Normal results on these tests indicate that the liver, thyroid, kidney, and heart are functioning properly and that Magnesium, Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D levels are within the normal range. This can be motivational for individuals to fine-tune their lifestyle choices to maintain their health. However it is important to note that good results do not guarantee the absence of disease or health problems and it is always advisable to discuss any symptoms or concerns with a doctor.

Improving general health can be achieved through lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, avoiding smoking, and limiting alcohol consumption.
