        Your good health is your first priority.Have a quick look on this new study.

    Scientists have developed a new blood test for Alzheimer's disease which can detect the disease 30 years before the symptoms appear.A new blood test can detect Alzheimer's with 90 % accuracy. The test identifies the build-up of a protein called amyloidbeta in the blood. Accumulation of this protein in the blood is the first sign of Alzheimer's.Recently,researchers developed another novel blood test for Alzheimer's.This test identified changes in the blood levels of a small molecule called micro RNA . It can even distinguish Alzheimer's from brain disease with similar symptoms.

  Blood tests are becoming a new efficient way to diagnose different diseases.Newly blood tests are not limited to Alzheimer's disease.

  Researchers developed a blood test that can detect 8 different kinds of cancer.The test,called cancer SEEK can detect ovarian,liver,and stomach cancers.It can detect pancreatic,esophageal,bowel,lung and breast cancers.This test detects tiny amounts of proteins that are released from cancer cells into the blood stream.This test can detect cancer even before signs,such as a lump begins to show.Cancer SEEK blood test also indicates the exact type of cancer present.The blood test accurately predicted the type of cancer in 83 % of patients.Early detection of cancer increases the chances of survival of the patients.

   Another blood test can detect genetic diseases early in pregnancy.This blood test can detect single gene disorders within the 6-10 weeks of pregnancy.The test looks for the level of mutations in the mother's blood once she is pregnant.Test results could help reduce the effect of genetic disorder.

  Another blood test can detect if individual has been exposed to gluten. Gluten intolerance is an autoimmune disorder called Celiac disease.The new test is designed to detect immune cells in a blood sample that are specifically activated and targeted at gluten protein. This blood test has an accuracy of 96%.Lipo protein panel blood test can detect early risk for developing a heart disease. This test looks at substances in your blood that carry cholesterol.

   Another blood test can predict the risk of heart attack by up to 7 years in advance.This test detects the levels of a compound called TMAO in the blood.Higher levels of this compound are associated with blood clots(thrombosis) .A blood test called high sensitivity C-reactive protein measures C-reactive protein(CRP) levels in the blood.CRP is a protein that increases in the blood with inflammation.Inflammation slowly erodes blood vessels and other organs. High levels of CRP increase your risk for heart attack or stroke by up to four time.
