Micronutrient Panel

The Micronutrient Panel assesses a comprehensive range of essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements, as well as key biomarkers to evaluate overall nutritional status and identify deficiencies or toxicities. This panel helps in diagnosing potential nutritional imbalances and assessing the impact of micronutrients on health and metabolic function.

Sample type:

Serum and Whole Blood

Preparation:

You do not need to do anything special to prepare for the sample collection. Fasting is not required for this test.

Biomarkers

Symptoms or conditions analyzed by this test

The Micronutrient Panel assesses a wide range of conditions and symptoms related to deficiencies or excesses of essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. It evaluates conditions such as anemia and fatigue related to deficiencies in hematocrit, hemoglobin A1C, and specific vitamins like B12 and folate.

The panel also examines bone health issues, muscle cramps, and cardiovascular symptoms related to imbalances in calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D.

Additionally, it helps identify deficiencies or toxicities from essential trace elements such as zinc, copper, selenium, and toxic metals like arsenic, mercury, and cadmium, which can affect overall health, metabolism, and organ function.

By providing a comprehensive overview of micronutrient status, the panel aids in diagnosing nutritional imbalances and guiding appropriate interventions.
