Specialized nutritional assessment program for metabolic optimization and personalized dietary planning. Blood samples, body composition analysis. Designed for individuals seeking to optimize nutrition, address fatigue, improve athletic performance, or manage weight. Duration: ~1.5 hours. Pricing on request (contact clinic). Tests included: Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) Measurement - indirect calorimetry determining exact daily calorie requirements at rest; Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) - detailed body composition including muscle mass, body fat percentage, visceral fat, total body water, phase angle (cellular health marker), metabolic age; Comprehensive Micronutrient Laboratory Panel - blood work testing vitamins (Vitamin D, B12, folate, B6, B1, A, E, K2), minerals (iron/ferritin, zinc, selenium, copper, magnesium, calcium), trace elements, omega-3/omega-6 fatty acid ratio; Amino Acid Profile (optional) - essential and non-essential amino acid levels; Personalized Nutrition Planning - individualized dietary recommendations based on metabolic rate, body composition, nutrient deficiencies, health goals, food preferences; Supplement Protocol - evidence-based supplementation strategy addressing specific deficiencies; Follow-up Tracking - option to monitor nutrient levels and body composition changes over time. Emphasizes microbiome-friendly nutrition and cellular regeneration through optimized dietary intake. Phone: 030 51999750 for detailed pricing and package customization.

Vitamin and nutrient testing measures the levels of essential micronutrients in your blood — vitamins, minerals, and trace elements that your body needs in small amounts but cannot function without. Common tests include B12 (critical for nerve function and red blood cell production), folate (essential for DNA synthesis and especially important in pregnancy), zinc (immune function, wound healing), magnesium (involved in 300+ enzymatic reactions), and selenium (thyroid function, antioxidant defense). Deficiencies are more common than most people realize, particularly in B12 (affecting up to 20% of older adults), vitamin D, iron, and magnesium. Symptoms are often vague — fatigue, brain fog, poor sleep — making testing the only reliable way to identify specific gaps.

Who Is This For?

Vegetarians and vegans (at higher risk of B12, iron, and zinc deficiency). Older adults, as nutrient absorption decreases with age. Anyone on restrictive diets or with digestive conditions affecting absorption. People experiencing unexplained fatigue, brain fog, poor wound healing, or hair loss. Athletes with high nutrient demands from training.

What's Included

Vitamin B12
Folate (vitamin B9)
Additional vitamins and minerals (varies by panel)

Preparation Required

Fasting for 8–10 hours is recommended for some nutrient tests but not all — check with your provider. Continue taking your regular supplements unless told otherwise (the test measures your steady-state levels). Morning draws are preferred for consistent results.

Biomarkers Tested

2
Vitamin B12 pg/mL

Essential for nerve function, DNA synthesis, and red blood cell formation. B12 deficiency can cause anemia, neuropathy, fatigue, and cognitive impairment. Common in vegans, vegetarians, older adults, and those taking metformin or acid-reducing medications.

Folate (Vitamin B9) ng/mL

Essential for DNA synthesis, cell division, and red blood cell formation. Folate deficiency causes megaloblastic anemia and, during pregnancy, increases the risk of neural tube defects. Works closely with vitamin B12.
