Blood Work Testing at Roots! – THIS FRIDAY
In past food challenges we have brought in a professional to offer athletes the chance to have their cholesterol and fasting glucose levels tested in-house at the shop. Per many athletes requests, we’re bringing Amy back THIS Friday for fasting blood work.
Testing will be offered at the shop Friday, October 7th from 6:00am to 8:00am. Sign-up sheet is available HERE.
Testing data includes:
Total cholesterol
HDL
LDL
Triglycerides
Glucose
Initial testing is $25 and subsequent (post challenge) testing is $40. This is a fasting blood test so please be sure to drink plenty of water and cut-off food consumption 12 hours prior to your time slot.
Hey Nicole, thanks very much for setting this up!
Hey Jake, no problem! Glad you’re looking forward to it.
Ditto. – Thanks Nicole.
Is this for food challenge folks only?
No, anyone can sign-up to have their blood work done.
Will anyone interpret the results for us when they come in? I’m clueless as to what my levels should be.
Jeff – We can’t really interpret the results seeing as we’re not doctors. We can however provide you with a few (in our opinion, great) links on how to look at cholesterol from a balanced perspective.
Nicole, Are food challenge folks automatically signed up for a slot or should we still reserve a time? Do you have a preference on whether we do it at the beginning or the end of the talk?
The blood draw is in the morning, the kick off session is at 7:00pm. Makes the fasting part easier.
Ah, that makes more sense! Thanks for pointing out – somehow I missed the “AM”.
Hey Brian, yes Chris is correct. Blood test in AM, kick-off in PM. We didn’t reserve spots for folks in the AM so be sure to sign-up.
