At a glance

A full body blood test is a comprehensive panel that measures biomarkers across your major systems, blood health, liver and kidney function, cholesterol and triglycerides, thyroid function, blood sugar, iron stores, and vitamin D, from a single online order. It suits people who want one wide snapshot instead of piecing together individual tests. Panel tiers range from 66 biomarkers (Basic Plus) up to 113 biomarkers (Advanced Plus), which also adds hormone and inflammation markers.

Best suited for

  • First-time testers who want one broad panel instead of choosing individual tests
  • Biohackers and quantified-self enthusiasts tracking a wide biomarker set over time
  • Adults comparing full-body panel tiers by depth, from 66 to 113 biomarkers
  • People with several vague concerns, energy, weight, sleep, who want wide-angle data to review with a doctor
  • Anyone consolidating scattered past lab work into a single repeatable panel

Key biomarker ranges

Commonly used adult reference ranges for markers this panel measures, labs vary, so always interpret results against your lab's stated ranges and with your doctor.

Fasting Glucose (mg/dL)

Commonly used reference ranges place fasting glucose at 70–99 mg/dL; results vary with sleep, stress, and recent illness, and labs differ slightly.

Fasting Glucose reference ranges (mg/dL)
ZoneRange
Low5070 mg/dL
Optimal70100 mg/dL
Prediabetic range100126 mg/dL
Diabetic range126160 mg/dL
Hemoglobin A1c (%)

Commonly used reference ranges place HbA1c below 5.7%; conditions affecting red blood cells can skew results, so labs and clinicians interpret in context.

Hemoglobin A1c reference ranges (%)
ZoneRange
Optimal45.7 %
Prediabetic range5.76.5 %
Diabetic range6.510 %
LDL Cholesterol (mg/dL)

Commonly used reference ranges label LDL-C under 100 mg/dL optimal; ideal targets depend on your overall cardiovascular risk profile.

LDL Cholesterol reference ranges (mg/dL)
ZoneRange
Optimal0100 mg/dL
Near optimal100130 mg/dL
Borderline high130160 mg/dL
High160190 mg/dL
Very high190220 mg/dL

The importance of testing

Ordering blood tests one at a time gets expensive and leaves gaps. A comprehensive panel solves both problems: the Basic Plus tier packs 8 tests and 66 biomarkers into one draw, the Advanced tier expands to 13 tests and 86 biomarkers, and the Advanced Plus tier reaches 23 tests and 113 biomarkers spanning blood health, metabolic and liver function, markers associated with cardiovascular risk, hormonal balance, inflammation, and vitamin status.

Breadth matters because systems interact. Thyroid function influences energy and weight; iron and ferritin affect oxygen transport; glucose and hemoglobin A1c describe blood sugar from two angles; the comprehensive metabolic panel reads liver and kidney function at the same time. Seeing these side by side in one report gives you and your doctor context that isolated tests cannot.

A full-body panel is also the natural starting point if you have never tested broadly before. The first round establishes your personal baseline; repeat rounds turn single data points into trends you can act on with your clinician, adjusting nutrition, training, or supplements and verifying whether the numbers respond.

Everything runs through Quest' clinical-grade labs, results are physician-reviewed and delivered privately online, most within 24 to 48 hours. No insurance or office visit is required, and HSA/FSA funds are accepted.

Frequently asked questions

How many biomarkers does a full body blood test cover?

These panels cover 66 to 113 biomarkers depending on the tier: Basic Plus runs 8 tests and 66 biomarkers, Advanced runs 13 tests and 86 biomarkers, and Advanced Plus runs 23 tests and 113 biomarkers. All tiers span blood health, metabolic and liver function, thyroid, blood sugar, and vitamin status.

Do I need a doctor to order a full body blood test?

No, a doctor's order is included with every purchase, so no office visit or referral is required. You order online and test at any of roughly 2,100 Quest locations, walk-in or by appointment.

What is the difference between the Advanced and Advanced Plus panels?

Advanced Plus roughly doubles the scope, going from 13 tests and 86 biomarkers to 23 tests and 113 biomarkers by adding hormone markers plus additional cardiovascular and inflammation markers. Advanced already includes markers associated with diabetes risk, inflammation, vitamin D status, thyroid function, and kidney health, so it remains a strong middle option.

How long do results take, and are they private?

Most results arrive within 24 to 48 hours, delivered securely to your private online account, though some individual tests take longer. Every report is physician-reviewed before release and can be shared with your own doctor.

Can I order a full body blood test in any state?

No, direct-to-consumer lab testing is restricted or prohibited in New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, so residents of those states may be blocked at the partner's checkout. In the rest of the US, no insurance is required and HSA/FSA payment is accepted.
