Iron, vitamin and mineral level tests

The lack of certain vitamins and iron in your blood can have significant effects on your health. Symptoms you may be experiencing include a loss of appetite or taste, an intolerance to the cold, dandruff, hair loss, redness at the side of your nose or eyes, a yellowing of the skin on your face or upper body, brittle, upturned or flaking nails, and muscle wasting.

Or you may simply feel tired or off-colour, and want to get to the root of the cause of your symptoms.

A simple blood test can test whether you have deficiencies in vitamins and minerals including:

• Calcium
• Iron
• Zinc
• Magnesium
• Folate (folic acid)
• All vitamin B types including vitamin B12
• Vitamin D
• Vitamin E
• Vitamin C

We conduct vitamin or mineral tests by taking a small blood sample for analysis in our laboratories.

We will contact you for a follow up appointment with the results of your test within 24 hours.

Once diagnosed, it may be possible to remedy a vitamin or mineral deficiency through the use of supplements and a change in your diet.
