Measuring vitamin and mineral levels
What about your vitamin and mineral levels?
Measuring your vitamin and mineral levels can help you optimize them and improve your health, vitality and performance.
The reason to have your vitamin and mineral status checked may be:
- Vitamin and mineral status: blood value determinations allow you to measure the levels of specific vitamins (e.g., vitamin D, vitamin B12) and minerals (e.g., iron, calcium) in your body. This offers insight into possible deficiencies or excessive levels.
- Health monitoring: Keeping up with vitamins and minerals is important for good health. Deficiency in certain nutrients can lead to various health problems, such as anemia, osteoporosis or fatigue.
- Optimal nutrition: If you follow a specific diet, such as vegetarianism or veganism, checking vitamins such as B12 or minerals such as iron can be important to ensure you get all the nutrients you need.
- Nutritional supplementation: If you use nutritional supplements, blood tests can help check the effectiveness of these supplements and ensure that you are taking them in the right dosage.
- Hereditary predisposition: Some people have an inherited predisposition to difficulties in absorbing certain nutrients. Blood tests can help identify whether you belong to this group, which is important for addressing absorption problems even if you follow a healthy diet.
- Prevention and treatment: Identifying deficiencies allows you to take preventive measures by adjusting your diet, taking supplements or following specific treatments. This is especially important if you are experiencing symptoms that may indicate a deficiency or if you are at risk because of hereditary predisposition.
Checking your vitamins and minerals through blood tests is an effective way to assess your vitamin status, address any deficiencies and identify absorption problems due to hereditary predisposition, in order to improve your overall health.
