At our clinic, we understand that it can be sometimes be difficult to arrange a blood test with your own GP or at a local hospital, thus we provide a private phlebotomy service, geared towards Metabolic health. We use a national and specialist private laboratory service in London to expedite your results and most blood results will be available within 48-72 hours. Our doctor and medical team will let you know of the specific turn-around-times for these results.

Tracking metabolic markers can reveal important insights into how your body regulates energy, blood sugar, and fat storage. Imbalances may contribute to fatigue, weight gain, insulin resistance, and increased risk of chronic disease.

Key markers may include:

• HbA1c (long-term blood sugar control)

• HOMA-IR (accurate assessment of your insulin resistance)

• Glucose

• Lipid profile (cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides)

• Ferritin (iron storage)

• Vitamin D

• B12 and folate

Your heart health is central to long-term wellbeing. Our tests assess cholesterol levels, inflammatory markers, and other cardiovascular indicators to help evaluate:

• Arterial health

• Cholesterol balance

• Oxygen delivery efficiency

• Risk of cardiovascular disease

Key markers may include:

• High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)

• Total cholesterol

• HDL and LDL cholesterol

• Triglycerides

• Lipoprotein(a)

• Homocysteine

Hormones affect everything from energy and mood to metabolism and sleep. Hormonal imbalances can lead to:

• Brain fog and low energy

• Weight changes

• Mood fluctuations

• Menstrual or libido changes

Key markers may include:

• Thyroid panel (TSH, T3, T4, thyroid antibodies)

• Testosterone

• Oestrogen

• Progesterone

• DHEA

• Cortisol

• Luteinising hormone (LH)

• Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH

While acute inflammation is a natural and necessary part of healing, chronic low-grade inflammation can be harmful. It is often linked to:

• Cardiovascular disease

• Autoimmune conditions

• Metabolic dysfunction

• Accelerated aging

Key markers may include:

• hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein)

• ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate)

• Fibrinogen

• Ferritin (also a marker of inflammation when elevated)

The omega-3 index measures the percentage of EPA and DHA in your red blood cells, reflecting your long-term omega-3 intake. A target range of 8-11% is generally recommended for optimal health benefits, including cardiovascular and brain health.The test also gives your personalised profile of 11 different fatty acids and dietary modifications that can be applied to improve, including your Omega 3:6 ratio. CWC is affiliated and has a partner with a premium Norwegian Omega 3 manufacturer called Eqology (www.eqology.com). As a CWC customer you have access to 25% discounts on their premium omega 3 products.

Parathyroid hormone is a key regulator of calcium and phosphate levels in the blood. It’s produced by the parathyroid glands and helps control bone health, kidney function, and vitamin D activity. Measuring PTH levels can help diagnose conditions like hyperparathyroidism, calcium imbalances, and certain bone disorders.

Testosterone is a vital hormone that plays a key role in muscle mass, energy levels, mood, libido, and overall hormonal balance. A blood test for testosterone can help investigate symptoms such as fatigue, low sex drive, mood changes, or difficulty building muscle. It’s also used to monitor hormone therapy and assess conditions like low testosterone (hypogonadism).
