Aarogyam Winter Advanced Package Plus CUA

What is Aarogyam Winter Advanced Package Plus CUA?

The Aarogyam Winter Advanced Package Plus CUA is a 102-test comprehensive health screening package from Thyrocare Aarogyam, available at 50% off for a limited period. It is one of the most advanced preventive checkup packages available — covering 15 health profiles including markers rarely found in standard packages: Blood Ketone (D3HB) for diabetic ketoacidosis screening, Fructosamine for short-term glucose monitoring, Cystatin C for sensitive early kidney disease detection, and Serum Copper and Zinc for trace mineral nutritional assessment.

The CUA (Complete Urine Analysis) of 24 parameters makes this a truly whole-body assessment in a single blood and urine draw. Powered by Thyrocare — NABL-accredited, CAP-accredited labs. Reports within ~6 hours of samples reaching the lab.

Tests Included (102 Parameters)

Vitamin Profile (2 Tests)

• 25-OH Vitamin D (Total) — The most common deficiency in India; low Vitamin D is linked to bone loss, immune weakness, depression and increased cancer risk. Winter months worsen deficiency due to reduced sun exposure.
• Vitamin B-12 — Essential for nerve function, red blood cell formation and DNA synthesis; vegetarians and the elderly are at highest risk of deficiency.

Diabetes Profile (2 Tests)

• HbA1c — 3-month average blood sugar; the gold standard for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes and pre-diabetes.
• Average Blood Glucose (ABG) — Calculated average glucose derived from HbA1c.

Thyroid Advanced (3 Tests)

• Ultrasensitive TSH [UTSH] — Most sensitive thyroid screening marker; detects subclinical thyroid dysfunction before symptoms appear.
• Total Thyroxine (T4) — Main thyroid hormone; low in hypothyroidism, high in hyperthyroidism.
• Total Triiodothyronine (T3) — Active thyroid hormone; T3 levels reflect true thyroid activity at the tissue level.

Lipid Advanced+ (10 Tests)

• Total Cholesterol, HDL – Direct, LDL – Direct, Triglycerides, VLDL Cholesterol — Complete lipid panel for cardiovascular risk assessment.
• LDL/HDL Ratio, NON-HDL Cholesterol, TC/HDL Ratio, HDL/LDL Ratio, TRIG/HDL Ratio — Advanced cardiovascular risk ratios for comprehensive lipid interpretation.

Liver Extended (12 Tests)

• Bilirubin – Total, Direct, Indirect — Measures liver processing of red blood cell breakdown products.
• SGOT [AST], SGPT [ALT] — Primary liver enzymes elevated in hepatitis and fatty liver disease.
• SGOT/SGPT Ratio — Differentiates alcoholic from viral liver disease.
• Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) — Elevated in bile duct obstruction and bone disease.
• Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) — Sensitive liver damage marker; elevated in fatty liver and alcohol use.
• Protein – Total, Serum Albumin, Serum Globulin, Albumin/Globulin Ratio — Reflects liver synthesis function and nutritional status.

Kidney Advanced (7 Tests)

• Serum Creatinine — Standard kidney filtration marker.
• Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Urea (Calculated) — Kidney waste clearance markers.
• BUN/Creatinine Ratio, Urea/SR. Creatinine Ratio — Diagnostic ratios for kidney and hydration assessment.
• Calcium — Regulated by kidneys and parathyroid; essential for bones, nerves and muscles.
• Uric Acid — Elevated levels cause gout and increase cardiovascular and kidney stone risk.

Iron Deficiency Profile (4 Tests)

• Serum Iron — Direct blood iron measurement.
• Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) — Iron transport capacity; elevated when iron stores are depleted.
• % Transferrin Saturation — Percentage of transferrin bound to iron.
• Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC) — Reserve iron-carrying capacity.

Cardiac Risk Markers Profile (5 Tests)

• Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] — Genetically elevated Lp(a) is a major independent cardiac risk factor.
• Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1) — Protective HDL protein; true measure of cardioprotective capacity.
• Apolipoprotein B (Apo-B) — Atherogenic particle marker; better cardiac risk predictor than LDL.
• HS-CRP (High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein) — Sensitive arterial inflammation marker; independently predicts heart attack risk.
• ApoB/ApoA1 Ratio — The single most powerful lipid ratio for cardiovascular risk prediction.

Trace Minerals (2 Tests)

• Serum Copper — Essential trace mineral for enzyme function, iron metabolism, cardiovascular health and immune support. Deficiency causes anaemia and neurological symptoms; excess is toxic.
• Serum Zinc — Critical for immune function, wound healing, insulin production and hormone regulation. Zinc deficiency is widespread in India and is linked to poor immunity and diabetes.

Advanced Metabolic Markers (3 Tests)

• Blood Ketone (D3HB — Beta-Hydroxybutyrate) — Measures blood ketone bodies. Elevated ketones indicate diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) risk in diabetics, or serve as a metabolic marker in those on ketogenic diets. Not available in most standard checkup packages.
• Fructosamine — Measures average blood glucose over the past 2–3 weeks (shorter window than HbA1c). Particularly useful when HbA1c is unreliable due to haemoglobin variants or certain blood disorders. An excellent short-term diabetes control marker.
• Cystatin C — A more sensitive early kidney function marker than creatinine. Detects kidney dysfunction before creatinine rises, especially in elderly, obese or muscular patients where creatinine can be misleading.

CBC — Complete Blood Count (28 Tests)

• Haemoglobin, RBC, WBC, Platelet Count, PCV, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW-CV, RDW-SD
• Differential leucocyte count: Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils (absolute and percentage)
• Platelet indices: MPV, PDW, PCT
• Detects anaemia, infection, clotting disorders, leukaemia and immune conditions.

Complete Urine Analysis (24 Tests)

• Physical: Specific Gravity, Appearance, Colour, Volume
• Chemical: Urinary Bilirubin, Urine Blood, Urobilinogen, Bile Pigment, Bile Salt, Urinary Glucose, Urine Ketone, Leucocyte Esterase, Nitrite, pH, Urinary Protein
• Microscopy: Bacteria, Casts, Crystals, Epithelial Cells, Urinary Leucocytes (pus cells), Mucus, Parasite, Red Blood Cells, Yeast
• Detects urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, liver disease and metabolic conditions.

What Makes This Package Stand Out?

• Cystatin C — Early kidney damage detection before creatinine becomes abnormal
• Blood Ketone (D3HB) — DKA risk screening for diabetics; not in most standard packages
• Fructosamine — Short-term glucose monitoring alongside HbA1c for complete diabetes picture
• Serum Copper and Zinc — Trace mineral nutritional assessment missed by most checkups
• Complete Urine Analysis (24) — Full microscopic + chemical urine assessment
• 102 tests, 50% off — exceptional value for the most thorough preventive assessment available

Who Should Take This Test?

• Adults above 35 seeking the most comprehensive annual health assessment
• Diabetics needing advanced monitoring (ketones, fructosamine, cystatin C)
• Those with kidney concerns — Cystatin C detects damage earlier than creatinine
• Anyone wanting trace mineral nutritional assessment (copper, zinc)
• Post-COVID recovery assessment
• People with multiple health conditions — thyroid + diabetes + heart + liver
