What will the Vitamin Profile Cover?
There are 13 several vitamins present in our body that are required for the functioning of various body parts. Vitamins are crucial for the overall growth and development of the body. The vitamin profile mainly covers 2 important tests. If your body shows apparent symptoms that point towards abnormalities related to vitamins, specifically vitamin D and vitamin B12, the Vitamin profile test is recommended.
Vitamin D total test: Vitamin D total has two different forms of vitamins. These are vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. The vitamins absorbed from the food you eat or sunlight transforms them into a form of vitamin D in the liver known as 25-hydroxyvitamin D or 25(OH)D, which is the most circulated form in the body which then gets converted to a biologically active form called as 1,25 hydroxyvitamin D or 1,25(OH)D. Through Vitamin D total test, the health expert determines the 25(OH)D levels in the blood.
Vitamin B12 blood test: Vitamin B12 levels in the body are determined by the Vitamin B12 blood test. It is a common blood test where Vitamin B12 levels are examined and measured. It is responsible for manufacturing blood cells and maintaining a healthy nervous system. As a result, if your body lacks Vitamin B12, it might lead to several nervous-system disorders that might affect the quality of life as well.
If you’re experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, back pain, mood disorders, weakness, and so on, then you should get your Vitamin Profile done through MFine.
