Vitamin D Blood Test

Do you often feel tired or rundown? Have you been catching colds more often than usual? These could be signs of a vitamin D deficiency. Our vitamin D test kit will tell you if your levels are too low and could be causing symptoms such as low mood, fatigue, or frequent illness.

Understanding Biomarkers

Biomarkers are specific compounds detected in your blood sample that reflect different aspects of your health. Your test will tell you your levels for each biomarker and whether they are within a normal range.

What is Vitamin D?

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for absorbing calcium and phosphate, which are necessary for energy, bone growth, and muscle and nerve function. The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for vitamin D in the UK is 10 micrograms (400 UI) for everyone above the age of 1.

Symptoms of Vitamin D Deficiency

Note: 74% of people have vitamin D levels below the optimum range.
