Your blood can reveal more about your health than you might expect. From fatigue to hidden nutrient deficiencies or early signs of chronic disease, routine blood tests help you stay ahead of potential health risks.
At My Care Labs, we make blood testing accurate, fast, and accessible, whether you’re a patient, doctor, or healthcare facility anywhere in California.
Why Blood Tests Are So Important
Many health problems develop silently. You may not notice symptoms until the condition has advanced. That’s where blood tests come in; they help track what’s happening inside your body before you feel anything is wrong.
With regular testing, you can monitor:
- Organ function (liver, kidney, thyroid)
- Blood sugar and cholesterol levels
- Vitamin and nutrient deficiencies
- Hormonal balance
- Immune response and inflammation
- Blood cell health and oxygen-carrying capacity
Preventive blood work is essential if you are managing conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, thyroid issues, or anemia, or if you’re simply aiming to stay healthy as you age.
Most Common Blood Tests Explained
At My Care Labs, we offer a wide variety of tests. Here are some of the key panels and what they reveal:
1. Complete Blood Count (CBC)
Evaluates red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets.
- RBC (Red Blood Cell Count): Low RBC may indicate anemia.
- HCT (Hematocrit): Measures the percentage of red blood cells.
- MCV (Mean Corpuscular Volume): High or low MCV helps identify nutritional deficiencies.
- MCH & MCHC: Determine the amount and concentration of hemoglobin.
- Low blood tests for MCHC often mean iron-deficiency anemia.
2. Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP)
Monitors kidney and liver function, glucose, electrolytes, and proteins.
- BUN (Blood Urea Nitrogen): Measures kidney function.
- People often search for “blood tests, what is BUN” when reviewing results.
3. Glucose & HbA1c
Check for diabetes or prediabetes. Hemoglobin A1c reflects blood sugar levels over the past 3 months.
4. Lipid Panel
Assess your cholesterol levels and heart disease risk.
5. Thyroid Panel (TSH, T3, T4)
Essential for checking metabolism, weight changes, fatigue, and hormonal health.
6. Vitamin & Nutrient Panels
Includes Vitamin D, B12, folate, iron, and more, ideal for people with fatigue, hair fall, or immunity issues.
