Your Summer Health Reset – Test Yourself with The Suresign Health Check-Up Kit.

The school summer holidays are here, and with them come long days, bright mornings – and what (hopefully) feels like a natural opportunity to focus on your family and your well-being. Unlike the cold and bleak January blues that often drain our motivation for health resolutions, summer provides the perfect backdrop for a reset. So, whether you’re planning a relaxing holiday, are looking forward to a lighter work schedule (or a quieter office!), or simply not having to iron school uniforms every morning, the summer hols are the perfect opportunity to put your health first.

And what better way to seize the summer than with a proactive health check? The Suresign Health Check-Up Kit, featuring 10 powerful tests in a single box, makes taking control of your health simple, accessible, and affordable.

Why A Summer Health Reset?

• More daylight energises us, making activities like evening walks, lunchbreak yoga, or morning workouts more appealing.
• Holidays and lighter work schedules provide the time to reflect on your health and make meaningful changes.
• The abundance of fresh, seasonal produce simplifies the task of eating well.
• A more positive mindset motivates self-care, making it easier to focus on what really matters.

Suresign Health Check-Up – 10 Tests In A Box

What’s Included In The Kit?

• Leukocytes – Normal urine specimens generally yield negative results. Positive results are clinically significant. Individual 'TRACE' results are clinically questionable; it is very important that 'TRACE' results be confirmed in a repeated test. The presence of leukocytes in urine is an important symptom of an inflammation of the kidneys and the urinary tract. Consult your doctor if you have a positive result
• Nitrites – Nitrite is not detectable in normal urine. Any degree of uniform pink colour development should be taken as a positive result. Positive nitrite can be indicative of urinary tract infection A negative result does not necessarily mean you do not have a urinary tract infection. Negative results may be obtained if your urine has not been in the bladder for at least four (4) hours or if the bacteria present are unable to produce nitrite. Consult your doctor if you have a positive result or if you are concerned about the test result
• Urobilinogen - A level of 2mg/dL in urine is the critical value, representing the transition from normal to abnormal, A positive result of four (4) or above is abnormal. Consult your doctor if you have a positive result.
• Protein – Normally protein is not detectable in urine with conventional methods, although a minute amount of protein is excreted through normal kidney function. Therefore, a NEGATIVE result is not sufficient to indicate that protein is not present. Protein in urine is indicated when the colour is darker than the plus/minus mark on the chart. In older patients, high protein levels may occasionally indicate heart problems. If your result is 30mg/dL (0.3g/L) or more, consult your doctor
• pH - The normal pH of urine can range from 4.6 to 8.0. Certain dietary conditions can produce acid or alkaline urines, which can be useful in the treatment, or some calculi (stones). Consult your doctor if you are concerned about the test result.
• Blood - The 'TRACE' reaction may vary among patients. The presence of green spots or green colour on the reagent area within 60 seconds indicates the need for a further diagnostic check. Green spots are often, but not always, found in the urine of menstruating females. Consult your doctor if the test pad changes colour.
• Specific Gravity - The normal specific gravity of urine ranges from 1.003-1.035. If the specific gravity of random urine is 1.023 or greater, the concentrating ability of the kidneys can be considered normal. Specific gravity equal or less than 1.010 indicates dilute urine and readings equal or greater than 1.025 indicate concentrated urine. Low readings may simply be due to excessive liquid intake and high readings may be due to insufficient drinking causing dehydration. However, persistent low readings can be due to kidney problems and continuous high readings can be indicative of underlying clinical problems relating to kidney and possibly the heart. If you are concerned about your test result consult your doctor
• Keytone - Normal urine specimens usually produce negative results in the test. In ketoacidosis, starvation, fasting, pregnancy and frequent strenuous exercise, ketones may appear in urine and may produce positive results. If you are concerned about your test results consult your doctor.
• Bilirubin - Normally, even the most sensitive method cannot detect bilirubin in healthy urine. It is abnormal to have even a little bilirubin in urine, which requires further inspection. Bilirubin in urine indicates liver disease before any clinical signs are usually evident. If you have a positive result consult your doctor
• Glucose - Normally, a small amount of glucose may be excreted through the kidneys. The amount is usually below the sensitivity level of the test. Results at the first positive level trace may be significantly abnormal if found consistently. If the colour appears somewhat mottled at the higher glucose concentrations, match the darkest colour to the blocks. If you have a positive result consult your doctor.
