Choosing a full body checkup in Chennai
Because diabetes is common in Chennai, a package that includes HbA1c along with fasting sugar is a good choice for most adults over 30. Add a lipid profile and kidney function to see how sugar may be affecting your heart and kidneys.
Younger, healthy adults can start with a basic package. People over 45, or with a family history of diabetes or heart disease, should consider a larger package with extra heart risk markers and vitamins.
Making the most of your report
Keep last year's report handy. A small rise in HbA1c or cholesterol over two years tells your doctor more than one reading, and early changes are easier to manage with diet and activity.
