What you need to know about your vitamins & minerals
Vitamin D is a vitamin which is used in the regulation of calcium and magnesium absorption from the gut, it is also important for the growth and health of bones. Vitamin D comes from two sources; it can be ingested from
foods and supplements or be produced in the skin once it is exposed to sunlight. Vitamin D tests are used to
identify vitamin D defciency and to monitor diseases that interfere with fat absorption like Crohn’s disease
Vitamin B12 (Total)
Vitamin B12 is a vitamin which is necessary for the formation of red blood cells, tissue and cellular repairs and nerve health. It can be found in animal products such as poultry, milk and eggs. Vitamin B12 tests are used to
help diagnose the cause of anaemia
Vitamin B12 (Active)
Active B12 and total B12 are two different measurements used to assess vitamin B12 status. Active B12 refers to
the biologically active form of vitamin B12 in functional state. Total B12, includes both active B12 and other forms of B12 that may be bound to proteins or not immediately available for use. Total B12 provides a wider scope for clinical assessment while active B12 is considered a more specifc indicator of B12 status and defciency.
Folate (Vitamin B9)
Folate (Vitamin B9) is a vitamin which is necessary for the formation of red blood cells, tissue and cellular
repairs and is important during pregnancy. It can be found in leafy green vegetables, yeast and citrus fruits.
Folate tests are used to help diagnose the cause of anaemia.
Zinc
Zinc is an essential mineral and is needed for the many metabolic processes in the body. Testing for zinc level evaluates for defciency. Zinc defciency can lead to various health issues, including impaired growth, weakened immune function, and delayed wound healing. Testing helps identify individuals who may beneft from zinc supplementation and ensures appropriate dosages.
Zinc supplementation may be useful for individuals with malnutrition, chronic diseases, or those at risk of inadequate zinc intake, such as vegetarians/vegans.
