The diabetes and obesity package is designed to monitor diabetic patients and detect complications — also for at-risk individuals (obesity, family history).
Package Contents:
- Fasting Glucose: Basic criterion — normal below 100 mg/dl. 100-125 = prediabetes. 126+ = diabetes.
- HbA1c (Glycated hemoglobin): Average glucose over 3 months. Normal below 5.7%. 5.7-6.4% = prediabetes. 6.5%+ = diabetes.
- Full Lipids: Total cholesterol + LDL + HDL + triglycerides. Diabetes raises lipids — both harm the heart.
- Kidney Function: Creatinine + urea + eGFR — diabetes is the most common cause of kidney failure.
- Liver Function: ALT + AST — obesity causes fatty liver.
- Urine Microalbumin: First sign of diabetic kidney damage — earlier than creatinine.
- Uric Acid: Rises with obesity and gout.
Who Needs This Package:
