This blood test measures 6 biomarkers associated with your liver health, including measuring the protein levels in blood and key enzymes that are produced by the liver.

Anyone who wants to find out how healthy their liver is.

The liver performs essential functions such as blood filtering and for the process and storage of essential vitamins and nutrients.

You should take this test if you believe you may be at risk of getting liver disease or may have symptoms which include:

stomach pain or swelling
darker coloured urine
nausea or sickness
jaundice

This test measures 6 key biomarkers, including key enzymes that are made by your liver, so you will have an understanding of how your liver is functioning.

This test analyses 6 key biomarkers:

Total Protein
Albumin
Globulin
Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT)
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)

No, you do not need to fast for this test, but it is recommended that you take your sample first thing in the morning.

Yes, risk factors for liver disease can include family history of liver disease, excessive alcohol or drug use or even exposure to the Hepatitis virus.

Other risk factors include being obese as this causes a build of excess fat in the liver. It can lead to serious liver damage, including cirrhosis, which stops the liver working properly.

Being diagnosed with other conditions like Type 2 diabetes can also make you more at risk of developing liver disease.

Tattoos or body piercings from unsterile equipment can put you at risk of Hepatitis C (Hep C).

Hep C is a virus that is spread by blood to blood contact.

You are also at risk from Hep C from unprotected sex and exposure to other people's blood and body fluids.

The symptoms of liver disease are:

Stomach pain or swelling
Darker coloured urine
Nausea or sickness
Jaundice - when skin and eyes appear yellowish
Itchy skin
Chronic fatigue

Each time you consume alcohol your liver filters that alcohol and some of your liver cells die.

Your liver can develop new cells, but drinking too much alcohol over a long period of time (a number of years) can reduce your liver's ability to regenerate. This can lead to serious and permanent damage to your liver.

You can look after your liver and keep it healthy:

Limit your alcohol consumption
Maintain a healthy weight
Eat a healthy and balanced diet
Lead an active lifesytle
Wash fresh produce to remove any pesticides
Prevent hepatitis A, B and C by being vaccinated, practising safe sex and good hand hygiene
