Mikronährstoffprofil Kompakt (Comprehensive Micronutrient Profile)

Ultra-comprehensive micronutrient analysis adding 9 advanced markers to Basic profile for total 24 biomarkers. Total price €719.21 (€180.96 Basic + €538.25 additional). Venous blood sample, fasting required. Results within 5-7 days. Most complete nutritional assessment available for: chronic disease, malabsorption, optimal longevity, complex symptoms, therapeutic monitoring, precision nutrition optimization. All Basic profile markers PLUS: Advanced Antioxidants - total antioxidative capacity (TAC, measures overall antioxidant defense system beyond individual vitamins, low TAC indicates oxidative stress from inadequate antioxidant intake, chronic inflammation, excessive free radical production), glutathione (master intracellular antioxidant, detoxification, immune function, declines with age/stress/chronic disease, marker of cellular health); Energy Production - carnitine (transports fatty acids into mitochondria for energy production, essential for fat metabolism and endurance, deficiency causes muscle weakness, fatigue, cardiomyopathy), coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10, ubiquinone, electron transport chain component producing ATP, powerful antioxidant, heart health, declines with age and statin use causing muscle pain/weakness); Cardiovascular & Metabolic - fatty acid status (comprehensive profile of omega-3, omega-6, omega-9, saturated fats, trans fats, omega-3 index critical for cardiovascular/brain health, optimal EPA+DHA >8%, identifies fat metabolism disorders), copper (ceruloplasmin, iron metabolism, connective tissue formation, nervous system, excess or deficiency causes problems, must balance with zinc); Vitamins - biotin (vitamin B7/H, carbohydrate/fat/protein metabolism, hair/skin/nail health, high-dose biotin supplementation can falsely alter lab results), folate (vitamin B9, DNA synthesis, cell division, prevents neural tube defects in pregnancy, lowers homocysteine, different from folic acid supplement form, measures active natural folate); Thyroid - iodine (essential for thyroid hormone synthesis, deficiency causes hypothyroidism and goiter, 30% global population deficient, excess also problematic, optimal range narrow). Comprehensive profile provides: complete nutritional status assessment beyond standard testing, oxidative stress evaluation (TAC, glutathione), mitochondrial function assessment (CoQ10, carnitine), omega-3 status (inflammatory balance), trace mineral optimization (copper, iodine), B vitamin completion (biotin, folate beyond B12). Clinical applications: chronic fatigue investigation (CoQ10, carnitine, iron, thyroid), cardiovascular optimization (omega-3 index, homocysteine, antioxidants), cognitive decline prevention (omega-3, B vitamins, antioxidants), athletic performance (all of above plus amino acids, minerals), pregnancy preparation (folate, iodine, iron, omega-3), anti-aging/longevity protocols (comprehensive optimization). Results enable precision supplementation targeting actual deficiencies rather than guessing. Most cost-effective comprehensive micronutrient assessment compared to individual test pricing. Recommended: baseline health optimization, annually for longevity-focused individuals, therapeutic monitoring. GOÄ pricing.

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.
