Precision Health Reports

Your cholesterol number can look perfectly normal and still miss the risk that matters. We look at the biomarkers your annual physical doesn't check, combine them with your history, and tell you exactly where you stand and what to do next. Not just a number to Google and hope that the answer is right.

Complete Cardiometabolic Risk Assessment Report — Precision Health Reports A comprehensive and actionable risk assessment report to identify your individual risks for cardiovascular disease, heart attack or stroke, as well as metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.

If you're a Function Health member, here's something new:

Your standard Function Health panel includes every biomarker that Precision Health Reports needs to run a complete, guideline-based cardiometabolic risk assessment: ApoB, Lp(a), hsCRP, fasting insulin, A1c, and your full lipid and metabolic panel.

That means you don't need a new blood draw. You can take the labs you already have, upload them, and get back:

→ Your personalized ASCVD risk score (heart attack and stroke probability)

→ Your 5-year type 2 diabetes risk

→ Your Metabolic Syndrome Severity Score

→ HOMA-IR — insulin resistance assessed clinically, not just flagged

→ A clinician-ready PDF your doctor can use at your next appointment.

Function Health is excellent at showing you what your labs are. We're built to tell you what they mean for your cardiometabolic risk using the same guidelines your cardiologist follows.

$99. No new blood draw. FSA/HSA eligible.

Use Your Function Health Labs for a $99 Cardiometabolic Risk Assessment | Precision Health Reports Already a Function Health member? Your labs qualify for a $99 guideline-based cardiometabolic risk assessment from Precision Health Reports. No new blood draw required.

You can have normal blood sugar and still have significant insulin resistance.

That's not rare. And insulin resistance is one of the strongest predictors of future type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
We measure it with the LP-IR score: a validated biomarker derived from a standard lipid panel. No extra blood draw. No fasting insulin (we do have a fasting insulin option for those who can't or don't want to use LP-IR score).

Most people have never heard of it. Most labs don't include it. We do.

4 Ways to Measure Insulin Resistance: Which Is Most Accurate? | Precision Health Reports HOMA-IR, LP-IR, fasting insulin, and A1C all measure insulin resistance, but they're not equally accurate. See how each test compares and which your doctor should order.

Big news for anyone who orders Precision Health Reports for their patients or for themselves.

In March 2026, the ACC and AHA published the most important update to cardiovascular risk guidelines in nearly ten years. These are the standards that determine who should be on cholesterol-lowering medication, what their treatment targets should be, and which risk factors deserve serious attention.

As of May 1, 2026, every Precision Health Reports Cardiometabolic Risk Assessment fully reflects every change in this new guideline. Here are the highlights:

✅ The risk calculator that determines your 10-year heart risk has been updated to PREVENT which is a more accurate tool that accounts for kidney function and blood sugar alongside traditional risk factors. We adopted this in December 2025, before it became the standard.

✅ The threshold for "high risk" was cut in half. Patients who scored between 10–19% on the old scale and were told they were intermediate risk now formally qualify for more aggressive prevention.

✅ Women's cardiovascular risk factors are now more complete. Conditions like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, premature menopause, and PCOS are now explicitly recognized in the guidelines and captured in our updated assessment questionnaire.

If you've ordered an Assessment recently, the report they received already reflects these updated standards.

Most people show up to their doctor with a "normal, but maybe a little high" LDL-cholesterol and leave thinking they're fine.

But LDL-C is a mass measurement. It tells you how much cholesterol is riding in your LDL particles—not how many particles are carrying it.

That distinction matters. A lot.

Particle number (ApoB) predict cardiovascular events in people with metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance, and diabetes—populations where discordance between LDL-C and ApoB is common.

When LDL-C looks normal but particle count is elevated, you're looking at residual risk that standard panels miss entirely.

Doctors who measure ApoB find what the lipid panel leaves behind.

If you don't get a Cardiometabolic Risk Assessment, at least as your primary care to measure your ApoB at your next exam.

ApoB vs LDL-C: Why Particle Count Predicts Risk Better | Precision Health Reports LDL cholesterol alone can miss hidden risk. See how ApoB particle count provides even clearer insight for heart disease prevention.

The new American College of Cardiology guidelines just came out and recommend that every adult be screened for Lipoprotein(a) just once.

1 in 5 people carry elevated Lp(a). About 3% of the population has been tested. Why? It's not often covered by insurance so most doctors are hesitant to order a ~$20-25 test.🤷‍♂️

Lipoprotein(a) is a genetically determined cardiovascular risk factor that standard cholesterol panels don't catch. It doesn't respond to diet or exercise. It requires its own test, and it changes the clinical conversation entirely.

If your physician hasn't mentioned Lp(a), ask about it at your next visit.

Precision Health Reports's Assessments include Lp(a) as part of a complete cardiometabolic picture, because risk factors this significant deserve more than a footnote.

Note: we also have Lp(a) available as a standalone test for just $22. No doctor order required. FSA/HSA eligible expense.

High Lp(a) Levels: What It Means & What You Can Do About It | Precision Health Reports High Lp(a) is largely genetic and significantly raises cardiovascular risk. Learn what causes elevated lipoprotein(a), what levels are concerning, and what treatments exist.

Insulin resistance often shows up in your labs years before a diabetes diagnosis. Insulin resistance is the key linkage between metabolic and cardiovascular health.

Most tests don't catch changes in insulin resistance early enough.

LP-IR, the lipoprotein insulin resistance score, is one of the most validated early markers available.

Here's how it compares to HOMA-IR, fasting insulin, and other common methods.

LP-IR vs. Fasting Insulin: Why LP-IR Is the More Reliable Measure | Precision Health Reports Fasting insulin is highly variable. See why the LP-IR score, derived from NMR lipoprotein patterns, is a more reliable measure of insulin resistance.

Your cholesterol panel is missing something.🧬

LDL-C tells you how much cholesterol is in your blood. LDL-P and ApoB tell you how many particles are carrying it. These particles are what cause plaque.

Two patients can have the same LDL-C and completely different cardiovascular risk. This is why there is so much confusion about whether high cholesterol matters or not.

Instead of relying on social media influencers, learn why advanced lipid testing exists.

LDL-P vs ApoB: Which Better Measures Cardiovascular Risk? | Precision Health Reports Compare LDL-P and ApoB as measures of atherogenic particle number. Learn why guidelines favor ApoB and how Precision Health Reports gives the full picture regardless of your particle number choice.

Have you ever been told your labs look "normal", but you still don't feel right?

Cardiometabolic disease is one of the most common and under-detected conditions in the US.

It's not a single diagnosis. It's a cluster of metabolic and cardiovascular conditions that share one root cause: insulin resistance.

We wrote a thorough, plain-language guide to help you understand what it is, how it develops, and what a real personal assessment looks like.

What Is Cardiometabolic Disease? — Precision Health Reports Cardiometabolic disease is not a single condition. it is a system of interconnected metabolic and cardiovascular disorders, all sharing a common root cause. Understanding that root cause changes how you measure, prevent, and treat it.
