On-Site Finger-Prick Testing: Fast, Accurate, Performance-Driven

At Swimmers Clinic, we harness the power of advanced finger‑prick testing—measuring Lipid Profile, HbA₁c, Vitamin B₁₂, Vitamin D, Folic Acid, and IL‑6 quickly and painlessly. These insights are delivered during your session, so you can adapt your nutrition and training instantly.

What We Measure & Why It Matters

• Lipid Profile: Reveals your risk for heart disease and cardiovascular stress -key for training endurance and recovery.
• HbA₁c: Provides a 2‑3 month average of your blood glucose control - essential for optimizing energy levels in training and competition.
• Vitamin B₁₂: Supports red blood cell formation and energy metabolism. Low levels can hinder stamina and technique.
• Vitamin D: Critical for immune resilience, mood, and muscle function—especially during intense training cycles.
• Folic Acid: Helps with energy production and cell repair—vital for recovery and maintaining peak condition.
• IL‑6 (Inflammation): A marker of training stress and recovery.  Elevated IL‑6 can signal overtraining or insufficient recovery.

Finger-Prick vs. Venous Blood Tests: How Accurate?

Our point‑of‑care technology consistently meets industry accuracy standards:

• Lipid Profile (cholesterol, HDL,triglycerides): Within ±10–15% of lab venous results—clinically equivalent.
• HbA₁c: High correlation with lab tests (r≈ 0.88); mean variation ~2%, well within allowable error.
• IL‑6 (and other inflammation markers)measured via dried capillary samples correlate strongly with serum levels,showing reliable agreement.

The Future Is Here: Continuous Monitoring, Smarter Training

1. Real-Time Feedback: Get immediate biomarker results - no lab wait times, no stress.
2. Personalized Prescription: Adjust training load, rest days, or nutrition based on your body’s response—delivering smarter programming.
3. Long-Term Progress Tracking: Tracktrends week-by-week: lower inflammation, optimized energy control, stronger immunity.
4. Elevated Performance: When science meets performance, every stroke improves.
