Comprehensive micronutrient panel covering blood vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and electrolytes in a single draw. An optional microbiome analysis can be added to correlate gut health with nutrient absorption. The panel identifies subclinical deficiencies in key nutrients that affect energy metabolism, immune function, cognitive performance, and tissue repair.
Micronutrient status sits at the intersection of diet, gut health, and metabolic demand — and standard blood panels rarely examine it in sufficient depth. This dedicated analysis measures a broad spectrum of vitamins including B-complex, D, and E alongside minerals such as magnesium, zinc, selenium, and iron. Trace elements and electrolytes complete the picture, providing data on sodium, potassium, calcium, and copper balance. Subclinical deficiencies — levels low enough to impair function but not low enough to cause overt disease — are common in modern diets even among health-conscious individuals. Zinc and selenium support immune cell proliferation and thyroid hormone conversion. Magnesium is a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions affecting energy production, muscle contraction, and nervous system regulation. B-vitamins drive mitochondrial energy metabolism and methylation pathways critical for DNA repair and neurotransmitter synthesis. The optional microbiome analysis adds a stool-based assessment of gut bacterial composition, linking absorption capacity to nutrient levels. Dysbiosis or reduced microbial diversity can impair the uptake of fat-soluble vitamins and mineral cofactors regardless of dietary intake. Results from both analyses are reviewed together to build a targeted supplementation and dietary strategy.
