• Vitamin B3: Skin rashes, headaches, and digestive issues.
• Vitamin B5: Insomnia, depression, and stomach pain.
• Biotin: Thinning hair and brittle nails.

• Vitamin B12: Tiredness, lightheadedness, and cognitive issues.
• Vitamin D: Weak bones, increased risk of fractures.
• Vitamin E: Nerve and muscle damage.
• Coenzyme Q10: Neurological symptoms, especially if genetically deficient.

Who Should Take the Vitamin Total Test?

This test is ideal for:

• Vegans and vegetarians: Those on plant-based diets are at risk for deficiencies in vitamins such as B12 and D3.
• Individuals with gastrointestinal disorders: Conditions like Crohn’s disease, celiac disease, or colitis can affect nutrient absorption, increasing the risk of deficiencies.
• The elderly: As nutrient absorption naturally declines with age, monitoring vitamin levels becomes essential.
