At a glance

The Micronutrient Health Check is a collection of lab panels that measure blood levels of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and heavy metals, including B vitamins, vitamin D, ferritin, magnesium, zinc, CoQ10, and metals such as lead and mercury. It is designed for adults who want objective data on their nutritional status before adjusting diet or supplements. Panels can be ordered online without a doctor's referral, with results you can review alongside your physician.

Best suited for

  • Adults who feel persistently low on energy despite solid diet and sleep habits and want objective nutrient data
  • Anyone taking or considering supplements who wants to verify what their body actually needs
  • People on restrictive diets, vegan, keto, low-calorie, or post-bariatric, where B12, iron, and mineral gaps are more common
  • Those with possible environmental or occupational heavy-metal exposure who want screening alongside nutrient status
  • Data-driven optimizers establishing a nutritional baseline to track over time

Key biomarker ranges

Commonly used adult reference ranges for markers this panel measures, labs vary, so always interpret results against your lab's stated ranges and with your doctor.

Vitamin D (25-OH) (ng/mL)

Commonly used cutoffs: below 20 ng/mL deficient, 20–30 insufficient, 30–60 a frequently cited target band; season and supplementation move levels substantially.

ZoneRange
Deficient020 ng/mL
Insufficient2030 ng/mL
Sufficient3060 ng/mL
High60100 ng/mL
Ferritin (ng/mL)

Commonly used reference ranges differ by sex, roughly 30–200 ng/mL is typical, with men’s upper bounds higher; inflammation can raise ferritin and mask low iron.

The importance of testing

Micronutrients, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, sit underneath nearly every metabolic process: energy production, red blood cell formation, nervous system function, immune defense, and DNA synthesis. Blood testing replaces guesswork with numbers, showing whether your levels fall inside or outside laboratory reference ranges rather than guessing from symptoms alone.

The panels in this collection are complementary. The B Vitamins panel quantifies folate plus vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12, markers associated with energy metabolism and red blood cell formation. The Antioxidants panel measures vitamin A, vitamin C, Coenzyme Q10, and tocopherols (the vitamin E family) to gauge the body's defenses against oxidative stress. The broader vitamins-and-minerals panels add ferritin, iron and TIBC, magnesium (serum and red blood cell), prealbumin, vitamin D with D2 and D3, transferrin, B12, and zinc.

Heavy metals belong in the picture too. The Heavy Metals panel measures arsenic, cadmium, cobalt, lead, and mercury, elements that can accumulate from environmental, dietary, or occupational exposure and that are associated with effects on the nervous system, kidneys, and bones. Screening for accumulation alongside nutrient levels gives a fuller view of what may be supporting, or interfering with, how you feel.

The most useful approach is to establish a baseline, address clear gaps through diet or targeted supplementation with your doctor's guidance, and retest to confirm the numbers moved. Any out-of-range result is a conversation starter for your physician, not a medical conclusion.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Micronutrient Health Check measure?

It measures blood levels of key vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and heavy metals across several panels, B vitamins (folate, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12), antioxidants (vitamin A, vitamin C, CoQ10, and tocopherols), minerals and related markers such as ferritin, iron and TIBC, magnesium, zinc, and vitamin D, plus metals including lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, and cobalt. Together the panels give a data-driven picture of nutritional status to review with your doctor.

Can I order micronutrient testing without a doctor's visit?

Yes, these panels can be ordered directly online through the partner page, with sample collection at a local lab; no doctor's referral is required. Results are delivered to your secure account, and any flagged values are worth discussing with your physician.

Is direct-to-consumer micronutrient testing available in every state?

No, direct-to-consumer lab testing is restricted or prohibited in New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, so residents of those states may be blocked at the partner's checkout. Elsewhere in the US you can typically order online and visit a nearby draw site.

Which micronutrient panel should I start with?

The Vitamins & Minerals - Advanced panel is a practical starting point: 11 tests covering ferritin, folate, homocysteine, iron and TIBC, magnesium (serum and RBC), prealbumin, vitamin D with D2 and D3, transferrin, B12, and zinc, the least expensive of the broad multi-nutrient panels at $188.76 with the promotion. The 27-test and Comprehensive panels add wider coverage, while the B Vitamins, Antioxidants, and Heavy Metals panels answer narrower questions.

Do these tests confirm a vitamin deficiency disease?

No, they measure nutrient and metal levels and flag values outside reference ranges; interpretation and any clinical determination belong with your doctor. Levels are markers associated with things like energy metabolism, red blood cell formation, and bone health, data points to review, not a medical conclusion.

Is there an age requirement for these panels?

Yes, the partner page notes that patients must be 18 years of age or older to order these micronutrient panels.
