Our home finger-prick blood test offers a convenient way to check your active vitamin B12 levels, essential for red blood cell production, DNA synthesis, and a healthy nervous system. Symptoms of low vitamin B12 include extreme fatigue, muscle weakness, and poor memory, which may be exacerbated by dietary deficiencies or conditions like Crohn’s disease or pernicious anaemia. Our test assesses if your B12 levels are within the normal range, crucial for oxygen transport, metabolism, and nerve function, especially important for vegetarians and vegans or those with absorption issues.
The Vitamin B12 Active Blood Test measures holotranscobalamin, the active form of vitamin B12 crucial for cellular uptake. Deficiency can lead to anaemia and neurological disorders, particularly affecting vegetarians and those with impaired gut absorption. Mild deficiency, more common than previously thought, may contribute to symptoms like fatigue, emphasizing the importance of monitoring and addressing B12 levels for overall health and well-being.
