Advanced metabolic panel (ApoB, insulin, hsCRP)
Standard cholesterol tests miss the risk that ApoB catches. We include insulin, hsCRP, and HbA1c for a real picture.
Overview
Cardiometabolic risk is under-diagnosed by the labs most people get. We add ApoB, fasting insulin, hsCRP, and HbA1c to the standard lipid panel so we're catching problems earlier.
What we look at
Signals, not guesses.
- ApoB
- Fasting insulin
- hsCRP
- HbA1c
- Standard lipid panel
How we approach it
The workflow.
- 01Baseline draw fasted.
- 02Interpret ApoB alongside LDL-C.
- 03Address diet, medication, or referral as indicated.

Rising insulin before glucose ever moves. Catching it here is where you actually change the trajectory.

TSH alone misses too much. A full panel includes Free T4, Free T3, and often reverse T3 and antibodies.

Total testosterone alone is misleading. Free testosterone, SHBG, and estradiol tell the real story.
