Annual Blood Tests for a Comprehensive Health Picture

Here are the key panels to ask your doctor about, along with recommended services:

Core Annual Tests

  • Complete Blood Count (CBC) - checks for anemia, infection, immune issues
  • Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) - kidney, liver, blood sugar, electrolytes
  • Lipid Panel - cholesterol and heart disease risk
  • Fasting Glucose + HbA1c - diabetes screening
  • Thyroid (TSH) - often overlooked but affects energy, weight, mood

Worth Adding

  • Vitamin D - deficiency is extremely common
  • B12 - especially if you're vegetarian/vegan or over 50
  • Iron/Ferritin - energy and immune function
  • hsCRP - inflammation marker for heart risk
  • Testosterone (men) or hormone panel (women, especially 40+)

Where to Get Tested

  • Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp - widely accepted, use your insurance
  • Ulta Lab Tests or Walk-In Lab - order your own without a doctor
  • Function Health - comprehensive membership-based panel (100+ biomarkers), great for data-driven people
  • Everlywell - convenient at-home options

Talk to your primary care doctor first - they can order most of these covered by insurance during an annual physical.
