Knowledge is power and as we age, it’s great to know our numbers and understand whats’ going on inside as well as in the mirror! 🩸
Blokes are traditionally crap at going to the doctor until they are on their death bed, but annual blood tests and scans can help our wellness journey incredibly!⚰️
If you are a bloke over 40 on a dadBod wellness journey, here’s my B.A.M.s (Bare Ass Minimum) top 7 blood tests that should be done annually to look for changes and trends! 🫣
(If you want the details on these - tune into the podcasts episode linked below🔉)
1. Full Blood Count: Your general health indicator!
2. Cholesterol: do you have a high risk of heart attack or stroke due to plaque in your arteries?
3. Liver Function Test: is your liver fatty or affected by alcohol?
4. Glucose & Insulin: are you at risk of type 2 diabetes?
5. Kidney Function: are you hydrated and kidneys performing?
6. Prostate: do you have any sign of prostate cancer?
7. Thyroid: is your thyroid working and keeping your metabolism strong?
