Kidney Health
Healthy kidneys do more than filter. They keep your whole body in balance.
Healthy kidneys do more than filter. They keep your whole body in balance.
Your kidneys play a crucial role in removing waste, balancing fluids and electrolytes, regulating blood pressure, and maintaining bone and heart health. That’s why our assessment goes beyond standard testing, with a comprehensive panel designed to identify early signs of dysfunction and detect imbalances before they become problems. Developed under the clinical guidance of our Medical Director, Dr Mark Penny, a nephrologist specialising in hypertension and kidney disease, this assessment reflects the latest evidence in kidney and metabolic health.
Blood & Urine Tests
Bicarbonate
A blood test that helps assess the body’s acid–base balance. It supports evaluation of Kidney Health, lung function, and metabolic health.

Biochemistry
Biochemistry testing refers to a broad panel of blood tests that measure chemicals, enzymes, and electrolytes in the body. These markers provide insight into the function of key organs, nutritional status, and metabolic balance.

Calcium corrected
A calculation that adjusts the total calcium level based on albumin, providing a more accurate measure of biologically active calcium.

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)
A blood test that estimates how well the kidneys are filtering waste from the blood. It is used to assess kidney function and detect early signs of chronic kidney disease.

Urea
A blood test that measures the amount of urea, a waste product formed in the liver and filtered by the kidneys. It helps assess kidney function and hydration status.

Uric Acid
Measures the level of uric acid in the blood to help detect gout and monitor kidney function. Elevated levels can indicate problems with how the body processes and eliminates waste products.

Why does this matter?
Kidney damage can develop silently, with symptoms appearing only in later stages. These tests help identify dysfunction early, monitor hydration and acid–base balance, and reduce the risk of long-term complications, including cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and chronic kidney disease.
