Who Should Get a Standard Health Panel?
Everyone can benefit from getting a Standard Health Panel to take a close look at their basic health measurements and to stay on top of their health. Whether you are managing a health condition or trying to get ahead of any health problems that may be developing, the Standard Health Panel offers you and your medical provider insight into how your body is working and what areas may need your attention and intervention.
How To Interpret Your Standard Health Panel Results?
When your Standard Health Panel results are ready, you will receive an email notifying you with instructions to log in to your online account and securely access the results. There is no need to wait for a doctor to review your results beforehand. Instead, you will get your results quickly and have all the specifics laid out before you to look at.
Each aspect of the Standard Health Panel will be part of your detailed results. You will notice a column with the test’s name and the various components that encompass the tests. For each testing element, you will get a result, and then there will be a reference range that allows you to see where your results fall in comparison. If there is any indication of an abnormal finding, such as when your sample falls outside the normal range, your results will indicate this. If something is high, low, or a component is present in your blood; the results will specify this.
Standard Health Panel versus Mood and Energy Panel
The Standard Health Panel includes basic tests used by doctors to understand the state of your physical health. However, if you are suffering from disturbances to your mood or energy, in that case, you may also want to consider purchasing the Mood and Energy Panel, which can give you greater insight into the most common culprits of these conditions.
