Anaemia Profile (Home Test Kit)
The depletion of oxygen transported to all parts of the body is caused by the low amounts of healthy red blood cells or haemoglobin available in the blood. This issue of dysfunctional blood cells is known as Anaemia and some symptoms include fast heartbeats, shortness of breath, chest pain, headaches, and light-headedness.

Blood Cells (1 Biomarkers)
A full blood count can be used to check your overall health and can detect a wide range of issues such as infection, anemia and leukemia. A full blood count will look at your red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Please note that full blood counts can only be done through an in-store appointment and cannot be run on finger prick samples.
Full Blood Count
Full Blood Count (FBC) provides information about the different cells in the blood, these include the red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Red blood cells contain haemoglobin which carries oxygen to the different tissues in the body whereas white blood cells control the immune system and protects the body from foreign invaders such as bacteria and viruses. FBC testing are used as a screening test for various disorders like anaemia and infections.
