Track your body from the inside out with testing that covers hundreds of markers. We can test everything from general markers like liver, kidney and hormone function, to more advanced insights like heavy metals, mycotoxins, immune reactivity, and gut health. We’re one of the first in the UK to offer this level of in-depth blood tests in Glasgow.
Our general full blood count tests cover standard health markers and are accompanied by a doctor’s comments. We operate an on-site health clinic with phlebotomists every Wednesday. We also offer an advanced range of tests that require more than a blood sample to assess your wellbeing.
We offer general blood tests to individuals wanting a comprehensive look at their health.

Our functional tests take a deeper look inside your body at factors such as toxins, micronutrient deficiencies, gut health and immune system reactivity to chemicals. We can also run a food sensitivity test. We recommend you pair our functional tests with a functional medicine consultation from a healthcare professional or doctor at our partner clinic.
The NutrEval test is a functional medicine MOT, and checks your nutrient status, oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, omega fatty acid balance, toxic exposure, methylation factors and much more. The comprehensive nutrition test identifies 125 biomarkers and measures the body's functional requirements for 40 antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, amino acids, digestive support, and other select nutrients.

A MycoTOX test or mould blood test checks for mycotoxins — the toxins produced by mould. Mycotoxins are a common toxin in the environment and have been linked with a host of chronic health issues and an increased risk of experiencing depression and anxiety. If you're worried you may have been exposed to mould, we may recommend a comprehensive mycotoxin test.
What we test for:
Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), Chaetoglobosin A, Citrinin, Enniatin B, Gliotoxin, Mycophenolic acid, Ochratoxin A (OTA), Roridin E, Sterigmatocystin (STG), Verrucarin A, Zearalenone (ZEA)
Sample type: Urine / See a sample report
A toxic heavy metal test can evaluate exposure to potentially toxic metal elements like mercury, arsenic and tin. Toxic heavy metal exposure can lead to skin toxicity and decreased bone health. These elements usually enter your body via food, air and water and are prominent in industrial areas. A healthcare professional or doctor can advise you to take a heavy metal test if you’re displaying symptoms of mercury poisoning or other heavy metal poisoning.
What we test for:
Antimony, Aluminum, Arsenic, Beryllium, Bismuth, Barium, Cesium, Cadmium, Gadolinium, Lead, Mercury, Nickel, Platinum, Palladium, Thallium, Tellurium, Thorium, Tungsten, Tin, Uranium
Sample Type: Urine / See a sample report
The GI-MAP includes pathogens (bacterial, parasitic, and viral) that are commonly known as possible causes of gastrointestinal infections. Diet, stress and other causes can affect your gut health. Bad gut health may lead to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and an increased risk of diabetes. Patients can do a gut microbiome test to monitor and improve the well-being of their gut.
What we test for:
Bacterial Pathogens, Parasitic Pathogens, Viral Pathogens, Normal/commensal Bacteria, Bacterial Phyla, Additional Dysbiotic/overgrowth Bacteria, Potential Autoimmune Triggers, Fungi/yeast, Opportunistic Viruses, Parasites & Worms, Protozoa, Worms, Intestinal Health Markers: Digestion (Elastase-1, Steatocrit), Immune Response, Inflammation, Gi Markers (SS-Glucuronidase, Occult Blood – Fit)
Sample Type: Gut health blood test or stool / See a sample report
We have a range of Cyrex tests available that can test for chemical, pathogen and food reactivities. Cyrex analysis offers antibody testing for the early detection and monitoring of autoimmune conditions.
The Cyrex Array 10 test looks at your body’s reactivity to 180 foods to help you evaluate problematic food sources.
What we test for: Dairy, Eggs, Grains, Beans, Nuts, Seeds, Vegetables, Fruit, Fish, Seafood, Meats, Herbs/spices, Gums, Brewed beverages and additives

An advanced test can be a good starting point in identifying any points of concern, allowing you to receive more tailored treatment. Here is the typical process followed when deciding on what test you require:
An advanced blood test can help address concerns about overall health and discover why you’re struggling with issues ranging from poor sleep and constant fatigue to low energy levels and unexplained weight gain. Blood tests can pick up an underlying condition or help monitor an existing illness.
Alternatively, you can measure and boost your body’s optimal health for better performance when training for an event — which is common among athletes.
Any prior preparation required for private blood tests will be discussed before you show up for your blood work at our Glasgow clinic.
Holon is a high-tech healing space in the heart of Glasgow’s West End. In addition to our advanced blood testing in Glasgow, we also offer a range of additional health services, including health coaching and functional medicine consultations. Schedule an appointment today.
