Weight and Metabolic Health Tests
Unexpected weight loss or gain can be a sign of an underlying health issue. One common cause is a thyroid imbalance, which can affect your body’s ability to regulate metabolism. From hormone production to energy levels, thyroid function plays a critical role in how your body manages weight. That’s why it’s important to get tested if you notice significant changes in your weight.
At ManaPlus, we offer a wide range of weight and metabolic health tests to help identify potential issues with your thyroid, iron levels, vitamin balance, and more. Our nationwide clinics make it easy to get tested quickly and confidentially.

Thyroid and Weight Fluctuations: What to Know
If your weight has changed drastically and unexpectedly, it may be linked to your thyroid:
-
Hyperthyroidism (Overactive Thyroid): May cause rapid weight loss, excessive sweating, anxiety, and a fast heartbeat.
-
Hypothyroidism (Underactive Thyroid): May lead to weight gain, feeling cold, fatigue, slow heartbeat, and muscle cramps.
By identifying whether your thyroid is over- or underactive, you can start appropriate treatment and prevent further health complications.
Other Reasons for Sudden Weight Changes
Although changes in diet and exercise can affect your weight, losing or gaining large amounts quickly without trying may indicate a medical issue. Minor weight fluctuations are normal, but any significant, unexplained change should be investigated with metabolic health testing.
How is Metabolic Health Tested?
Metabolic health tests are usually conducted through a blood sample. At ManaPlus, your sample will be collected at one of our UK clinics and sent to an accredited lab for analysis. Your results will be available securely online shortly after testing.
