Comprehensive blood test to check and manage vitamin B12 (active and total), B9 (folate), and Vitamin D levels.
This test measures active and total vitamin B12, vitamin B9 (folate), and vitamin D levels. It's crucial to measure both active and total B12 as not all forms are biologically active. Vitamin D is essential for bone health, immune support, cell growth, mood, heart health, muscle function, autoimmune disease prevention, and calcium regulation. Vitamin B9 (folate) plays a vital role in various essential body functions. This panel helps identify and manage vitamin deficiencies.

Preparation Required
Fasting for 10–12 hours before your appointment is recommended for accurate results (water is fine). Avoid alcohol for 24 hours and intense exercise for 12 hours before the blood draw. Morning appointments are ideal for consistent hormone and glucose readings. The blood draw typically takes 5–10 minutes.
Biomarkers Tested
3Essential 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.
The best indicator of overall vitamin D status. Vitamin D is essential for calcium absorption, bone health, immune function, and mood regulation. Deficiency is extremely common, especially in northern latitudes, and linked to increased disease risk.
