The diabetes test allows you to measure your glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and kidney function to manage your diabetes at home, without going to the lab. And it helps diagnose diabetes or pre-diabetes.

HbA1c
People with diabetes need to monitor blood sugar levels because if blood sugar levels are not maintained within a healthy range, serious long-term complications can occur, such as damage to the nerves, kidneys and cardiovascular system. Measurement of glycosylated haemoglobin is the most useful tool for monitoring glycaemic control.
Creatinine
Diabetes is a major cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The high blood sugar levels that occur in diabetes can damage the small blood vessels in the kidneys and reduce their ability to properly filter waste and excess fluids from the body. Over time, this can lead to a build-up of waste products and fluids in the body, which can cause serious health complications such as kidney failure and the need for dialysis or kidney transplantation. Therefore, it is important for people with diabetes to monitor their blood sugar levels and have regular kidney function tests to detect any problems early and prevent or treat chronic kidney disease.
Glomerular Filtration
Diabetes is a major cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The high blood sugar levels that occur in diabetes can damage the small blood vessels in the kidneys and reduce their ability to properly filter waste and excess fluids from the body. Over time, this can lead to a build-up of waste products and fluids in the body, which can cause serious health complications such as kidney failure and the need for dialysis or kidney transplantation. Therefore, it is important for people with diabetes to monitor their blood sugar levels and have regular kidney function tests to detect any problems early and prevent or treat chronic kidney disease.

With this test you can measure the key biomarkers for diabetes management: HbA1c, creatinine and glomerular filtration rate. You can monitor your treatment or detect diabetes if you have risk factors such as family history or overweight (without being a definitive test). Results and medical interpretation included.

THE DIABETES TEST IS FOR YOU IF...

  • You suspect that you have insulin resistance and you want to assess your health in order to take preventive measures.
  • Presentas symptoms consistent with diabetes such as increased thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, increased hunger or blurred vision.
  • You are diabetic and you want to monitor your glycosylated haemoglobin and renal profile without leaving home to check the effectiveness of the treatment you have been prescribed. The HbA1c test should be performed at least twice a year.
  • This test is an aid in the diagnosis of diabetes or pre-diabetes, but is not definitive.
  • Do you have any associated disorder or risk factor to diabetes, such as being overweight or obese, family history, among others, and you want to know if you are at risk of developing diabetes.
  • You want to avoid health complications from diabetes, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Diet and exercise but no results? The test analyses markers that may be slowing down your weight loss: thyroid, insulin resistance and other imbalances. Ideal if you have already tried ineffective diets, have exercised without success, or are about to start a nutritional plan and want to know what your starting point is.

Is stress taking its toll on you? Beyond an elevated cortisol value, you may be experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, weight changes, insomnia, digestive problems or general malaise, which may be related to chronic stress. This test offers a more complete picture of how stress is affecting your body.

Frequently asked questions about this test

Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1C) is a variant of haemoglobin bound to glucose and its ratio roughly represents the average blood glucose over the last three months. Values above 6.5% are considered highly suspicious for diabetes and is the most useful tool for monitoring glycaemic control. However, a single measurement is usually not sufficient to make a definitive diagnosis. Further tests are usually required and should be ordered by your doctor.

The diabetes test does not require any special preparation. However, we recommend taking the sample first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, and even better, after a warm shower to get the blood flowing.

If the results are normal, we recommend a six-monthly follow-up. If they are altered or you modify your treatment, you should repeat the analysis after 3 months to check the evolution.
