Laboratory analysis
MedVital Gesundheitsresidenz
Laboratory analyses and laboratory parameters play a fundamental role in modern medicine. Laboratory analyses are a crucial tool in preventive medicine to identify risk factors at an early stage and thus take preventive measures.
We offer a wide range of laboratory diagnostic analyses that provide in-depth insights into immune defence, metabolism, biological age, inflammation or hormone status, for example.
Energy, immune and cell status
Biological age
Biological age reflects a body’s state of health and can differ from chronological age. It is influenced by genetics, lifestyle and environment. A lower biological age indicates better health.
ATP level
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the central energy carrier molecule in cells and is often referred to as the ‘energy currency’. It is crucial for many cellular processes, such as muscle contraction, metabolism and signalling. ATP levels are an important indicator of cellular health and function.
Immune status
Mitochondrial diagnostics analyses the function of mitochondria, the energy producers of cells. It is important for the diagnosis of mitochondrial diseases and dysfunctions.
Nitro & oxidative stress
Nitro stress is an imbalance between the production and degradation of reactive nitrogen species (RNS), especially nitric oxide (NO). It can lead to oxidative stress and is associated with diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases. Nitrostress plays a key role in many chronic diseases.
Healthcare
Diabetes & Cholesterol
Metabolic syndrome is a group of metabolic disorders that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to reducing health risks.
CHD risk
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the narrowing of the coronary arteries that can lead to angina or heart attack. A CHD risk test assesses the individual risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) based on various risk factors.
Gut health
Gut health refers to the condition and function of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly the large intestine. A balanced intestinal flora is crucial for well-being.
Cancer prevention
Cancer prevention includes measures aimed at detecting cancer early, preventing it or reducing the risk of the disease. It plays a crucial role in healthcare, as early diagnosis is often associated with better treatment outcomes and higher survival rates. Overall, cancer prevention contributes to the reduction of cancer incidence and mortality.
Osteporosis
Osteoporosis is a disease characterised by a decrease in bone density and quality, which increases the risk of bone fractures. Early diagnosis and a healthy lifestyle are crucial to minimise the risk of fractures.
Hormones
Hormon profile
A hormone profile is an analysis of the hormones in the body that can identify hormonal imbalances. A hormone profile is useful for diagnosing and treating hormonal problems. Both in men and women.
Thyroid gland
The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped gland in the neck that produces important hormones (T3 and T4) to regulate the metabolism. Early diagnostics can detect hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. Nodules can also be diagnosed.
Sleep disorders
Sleep disorders are problems that affect the quality, duration or time of sleep. They can take various forms, including Insomnia, sleep apnoea, RLS, parasomnias or hypersomnia. These can lead to cognitive impairment, emotional problems and an increased risk of chronic illness.
Women & men's health
Women’s health
Women not only live longer on average than men, they also fall ill differently than men. The differences between the sexes are sometimes serious. In addition to genes, the psyche and health behaviour, sex hormones are also decisive, as they change in the various phases of a woman’s life and influence metabolic processes.
Men’s health
Men’s health refers to the state of physical, mental and social well-being of men and covers a wide range of issues that affect men in particular. This may include issues related to reproductive health, sexual health (androgens), cardiovascular health, mental health and cancer prevention and treatment.
Pollutant load
Pollutants, especially heavy metals, are found everywhere in our environment. They are in the soil, water and air and, among other things, enter our food and thus our bodies as heavy metals. Heavy metals are toxic metals with a high density that can cause health problems. The most common include lead, mercury, cadmium and arsenic.
Vitamins & minerals
Micronutrients
Micronutrients are essential nutrients that the body needs in small quantities. They include vitamins and minerals that are important for many bodily functions.
Incompatibilities
Fructose / lactose
Fructose and lactose are processed differently in the body. Fructose is mainly metabolised in the liver and can cause health problems in high quantities, while lactose is broken down into glucose and galactose by the enzyme lactase. People with lactose intolerance have difficulty digesting lactose, which can lead to unpleasant symptoms.
