PACKAGE: Healthy Heart
Cardiovascular health is the primary source of health concerns in Western countries. That’s why it’s crucial to take precautions and check your heart while it’s still healthy and robust. That way, we can respond swiftly and effectively when problems develop.
What causes heart fatigue?
Heart function can deteriorate over time, leading to heart failure, which occurs when the heart is unable to pump enough blood around the body to fulfill metabolic demands. As a result, the organs become depleted of oxygen and nutrients. Inadequate blood supply to the organs causes a sequence of reactions in the body that are initially beneficial, but if they continue over an extended period, they become toxic and are accountable for the heart’s poor function.
Coronary artery disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle), and heart attacks all contribute to heart failure. In addition to genes, risk factors for early heart disease include bad lifestyle choices such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, poor food, obesity, a lack of exercise, high blood alcohol levels, and stress.
Signs of heart failure
Tiredness, shortness of breath, a pounding heartbeat on exertion, more frequent urge to urinate at night, chronic cough, particularly on exertion, fluid retention in the lower legs, cold extremities, and bluish lips, ears, and nose are all symptoms of heart failure.
The package contains carefully selected tests to provide you with an early understanding of your heart’s state and your possible risk of developing cardiovascular illness, including heart failure:
- hemogram,
- lipids (cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides),
- glucose,
- NT-proBNP protein,
- creatine kinase (CK) enzyme,
- renal function tests (urea, creatinine, and urate),
- liver enzymes (AST, ALT),
- electrolytes (potassium, sodium),
- thyroid hormone TSH,
- urinalysis,
- hsCRP.
