Checks your Vitamin B12 levels. It is essential for your health and wellbeing and performs several important functions in the body.
Vitamin B12 is essential for your health and wellbeing and performs several important functions in the body, including keeping the nervous system healthy.
Understanding your levels is important as low levels of Vitamin B12 can have severe effects on blood and overall health. Vitamin B12 is particularly important for those on a plant-based diet.
Vitamins are a group of substances that our bodies need for normal cell function, growth and development. Vitamin deficiencies can be the cause of a wide range of common symptoms and conditions.
Laboratory results are provided with reference ranges which are based on the normal test results of a large group of healthy people from the same age group and gender as yourself.
Sometimes, healthy people get results outside the reference range, while people with health problems can have results in the normal range. If your results fall outside the reference range, or if you have symptoms despite a normal result, you may require more testing or wish to discuss the result with your GP.
For simplicity, we provided your results graphically, so they are easy to understand. Any result flagged amber is outside of the standard range. Normal results are in green.
If you see ‘invalid result’ on any of your report pages, it’s nothing to worry about. Please call our Customer Service team on 020 7183 3718 and if required we will be able to arrange another blood test appointment free of charge or post you a home testing kit which you can post back to our laboratory
