What does it detect?
A standard blood test but a crucial part of any health screening, glucose levels are a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, a disease in which the body cannot utilise sugar properly. As we recommend that you fast for your health screening, the results will be reported as FASTING.
Why get one?
To determine if your level is within normal ranges; to evaluate for, analyse, and screen for diabetes; and to screen for hypoglycaemia (Low) and hyperglycaemia (high glucose levels).
1 BioMarker:
- Glucose: measures your blood sugar level at a specific time.
The following conditions can also cause high levels:
- Severe stress.

- Cushing’s syndrome.
- Medicines such as corticosteroids.
- Excess production of growth hormone (acromegaly).
