Energy and Metabolism Combo: Thyroid Blood Test & Vitamin D
Unlock the full picture of your energy levels and metabolic health with our Energy and Metabolism Combo. This comprehensive blood test checks your thyroid function and vitamin D status—two critical factors influencing fatigue, weight changes, mood, and overall wellbeing. Whether you're experiencing unexplained tiredness, struggling with weight management, or simply looking to optimise your health, this test offers scientifically backed insights into potential underlying causes.
Recent research from the University of Oxford and the British Thyroid Foundation highlights how even mild thyroid imbalances can significantly impact metabolism, while low vitamin D—common in the UK, especially during winter months—is linked to fatigue, depression, and decreased immune function (Pearce et al., 2013; NICE, 2022).
Take control of your health with medical-grade testing backed by clinical expertise and scientific evidence.
What Does It Test For?
This combo test analyses the following:
1. Thyroid Function (TSH, Free T4, ± Free T3)
The thyroid gland regulates metabolism through hormone production. Disruptions in these hormones can signal hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), both of which affect energy levels, mood, weight, and cardiovascular health. According to the British Thyroid Association, thyroid disorders affect 1 in 20 people in the UK, many of whom remain undiagnosed.
2. Vitamin D (25-hydroxyvitamin D)
Vitamin D plays a key role in energy production, immune function, and bone health. Deficiency is widespread in the UK due to limited sunlight, with studies from University College London (UCL) linking low vitamin D levels to increased fatigue and a higher risk of chronic conditions (Lips et al., 2019). The test measures: 25(OH)D – the most accurate marker of vitamin D status in the body.
As per NHS guidance, maintaining adequate vitamin D levels is crucial not just for bone health but also for mood and immune resilience.
