Home Blood Test Kit – Instructions

Our home blood test kits are designed to be simple and convenient. Please follow the guidance below to ensure the best quality sample.

  • Take your test in the morning, ideally before 10am, and on an empty stomach 
  • Drink plenty of water beforehand to stay well hydrated and help blood flow.
  • Post your sample immediately after taking it, ideally before 11am.
  • We recommend posting samples Monday–Thursday only. Posting later in the day or before weekends may delay delivery and could require the sample to be retaken.
  • Most results are available within 72 hours after the laboratory receives your sample.

Please follow the instructions included with your kit carefully when collecting your sample.

What is being tested?

Triglycerides

Triglycerides are a type of fat your body uses for energy. After you eat, extra calories your body does not immediately need are converted into triglycerides and stored in fat cells. Levels can rise when calorie intake regularly exceeds energy use, particularly from sugary or processed foods. High levels over time may contribute to cardiovascular risk and are usually reviewed alongside cholesterol results. 

Total Cholesterol 

Total cholesterol is a combined measure of all the cholesterol circulating in your blood. Cholesterol is needed to build cells and produce certain hormones, but balance is important. This result includes both protective and non-protective types of cholesterol, which are measured separately to give a clearer picture. 

Non-HDL Cholesterol 

Non-HDL cholesterol measures the cholesterol that is not HDL, the “good” cholesterol. It includes LDL and other particles that can contribute to plaque build-up in blood vessels over time. It is a useful marker when assessing overall cardiovascular risk. 

Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) 

LDL carries cholesterol from the liver to the rest of the body. When levels are higher than needed, LDL can deposit cholesterol in the walls of arteries over time. It is commonly called “bad” cholesterol, although it still has normal functions in the body. 

High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) 

HDL helps transport excess cholesterol away from the bloodstream and back to the liver, where it can be processed and removed. It is often described as protective or “good” cholesterol. Higher HDL levels are generally associated with better cardiovascular health. 

Cholesterol:HDL Ratio 

This ratio compares total cholesterol with HDL cholesterol. It helps assess the balance between protective and non-protective cholesterol rather than looking at one result alone. A lower ratio generally reflects a healthier cholesterol balance. 

TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) 

TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) Released by the brain to signal the thyroid to produce its hormones. TSH is the primary marker for assessing thyroid function. A raised level often indicates an underactive thyroid.  

FT4 (Free Thyroxine) 

The main hormone produced and released by the thyroid gland. Together with TSH, T4 gives a complete picture of whether your thyroid is functioning within a healthy range, directly affecting metabolism, energy, and mood.  

Ferritin 

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron inside your cells, acting as your body's iron reserve. Unlike a standard blood count, which measures iron currently circulating in your blood, ferritin tells us how much iron your body actually has in storage- a more complete picture of your iron status. Iron is essential for making haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. Ferritin levels can be influenced by diet, exercise, age, and your body's current demands.  

Vitamin B12 

A vitamin that your body cannot produce on its own, it must come entirely from diet or supplementation. It plays an important role in energy production, healthy nerve function, and the formation of red blood cells. B12 is found naturally in animal products including meat, fish, eggs, and dairy, and is also available in fortified foods. Levels can be affected by dietary choices, age, and how well your digestive system absorbs nutrients.  

Folate 

Folate plays a key role in producing and repairing DNA, forming healthy red blood cells, and supporting normal brain function. It works closely alongside vitamin B12, and the two are often measured together. Folate is found naturally in dark leafy greens, lentils, beans, and eggs. Levels can be influenced by diet, alcohol consumption, and how efficiently the body absorbs and uses nutrients. Folate is particularly important during pregnancy for healthy foetal development. 

Sodium 

The primary electrolyte responsible for fluid balance, nerve signaling, and muscle function. Sodium levels help assess hydration status and overall kidney regulation.  

Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) 

Reflects how well your body is breaking down and clearing protein. Elevated levels can indicate changes in kidney function.  

Creatinine (Enzymatic) 

A waste product produced by muscle activity, filtered out by the kidneys. Creatinine levels are a key indicator of kidney function and muscle metabolism.  

eGFR 

Provides an overall picture of how efficiently your kidneys are filtering waste from the blood. A key marker of kidney health.  

Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) 

A liver-specific enzyme that rises when liver cells are under stress. ALT is one of the most direct markers of liver health and normal liver activity. 

Gamma-glutamyl Transferase (GGT) 

An enzyme that helps give a broader picture of liver wellbeing. GGT is sensitive to changes in liver function and can be influenced by alcohol, medication, and metabolic factors. 

Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) 

An enzyme found in the liver and muscle tissue. AST levels help assess liver health and can also reflect changes in muscle activity or recovery. 

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) 

An enzyme found in the liver and bones. Elevated levels can indicate changes in liver function or bone metabolism and help provide broader insight into overall metabolic health. 

Albumin 

The most common protein in your blood, produced by the liver. Albumin supports fluid balance, transports hormones and nutrients, and is a key indicator of liver and nutritional health. 

Cortisol 

Cortisol is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands, two small glands that sit on top of the kidneys. It follows a natural daily rhythm, typically highest in the early morning and gradually falling throughout the day. Cortisol plays an important role in regulating blood sugar, managing the body's response to stress, supporting immune function, and controlling blood pressure. Morning cortisol is the standard measurement used in health screening, as it represents the peak of the body's natural daily cycle.
