Transform Your Heart Health

 The Proven 12-Week Program to Reduce Heart Disease
Risk and Add 10 Extra Years of Healthy Life

Two-thirds of all men by the time they reach 40 have thicker, harder arteries around their hearts.

Comprehensive heart health screening

At GC Biosciences, we provide men at risk of coronary artery disease with cutting-edge screening methods. To reduce your risk of heart disease and possibly reverse it, we perform a variety of tests to evaluate your risk profile and pinpoint areas that need attention.

Tests we use in the Healthy Heart Program
  • Comprehensive blood chemistry test: Evaluates various aspects of your health including immune function, organ health, hormone levels, and of course heart health.
  • Genetic profiling: Identifies gene variants associated with CAD to better understand your genetic predisposition.
  • Advanced cardiac markers: Measures specific markers like lipoprotein A and Apolipoproteins to assess heart health.
  • Stress echocardiogram: A safe and radiation-free diagnostic test that assesses blood flow to the heart and detects blockages in the coronary arteries, aiding in CAD prevention. It also helps identify inducible arrhythmias.

Program Features

How our Healthy Heart Program works
Our program spans over 3 months and encompasses the following:
Step 1

Before any testing, you must have an initial consultation with a health consultant to assess your current lifestyle, medical history, and familial health. 

1
Step 2

You'll then be booked in to have your blood taken so we can do the blood analysis. You will also be booked in for a stress echocardiogram. 

2
Step 3

After analyzing the test results, we schedule a post-test consultation with our health scientists to discuss the findings and outline necessary changes to decrease your risk.

3
Step 4

You will have a post-test consultation with a medical doctor (if needed), a nutritionist and a personal trainer to implement nutrition and lifestyle changes.

4
Step 5

Check-in consultations every 2 weeks are scheduled. You'll be able to ask any questions you might have as you progress through the program.”

With our thorough screening and personalized approach, we're committed to helping you take proactive steps towards a healthier heart and life.
What can you expect in your report?

QRISK3

Understand your QRISK3 Score. How likely are you to have a heart attack or a stroke in the next 10 years

Triglycerides/HDL

Abnormal Triglycerides/HDL Ratio indicates an atherogenic risk profile which leads to heart attacks. We can help reduce this considerably.

Lipid Panel

Our lipid panel uses a traffic light system to highlight the risk.

Lipid Comparison Chart

Our blood comparison report can measure your progress.

Testosterone Panel

Our blood tests also show how much testosterone you have, which we can also treat.

Key Findings

Key Findings are highlighted and discussed on each report we produce.

CAD Risk Factors
Understand your QRISK3 Score

How likely are you to have a heart attack or a stroke in the next 10 years?

Triglycerides/HDL

Abnormal Triglycerides/HDL Ratio indicates an atherogenic risk profile which leads to heart attacks. We can help reduce this considerably

Age & Gender

CAD becomes increasingly common with age, and men tend to develop CAD before women. As a result, men have an overall higher risk of CAD.

Occupational Hazards

Certain occupations, such as manual labour or industrial work, can involve exposure to harmful chemicals or physical stress that may contribute to CAD development.

Lifestyle choices

Conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, can increase the risk of developing CAD. Men are at a higher risk of developing these conditions.

Hormones

Testosterone has been linked to an increased risk of developing CAD. It is thought to be related to changes in lipid metabolism and oxidative stress.
