Product Description

A Home Vitamin D Test Kit provides you with a fast indication of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25 (OH) D) levels.

Vitamin D deficiency is associated with many diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune diseases, diabetes and depression.

Monitoring your vitamin D levels as a key biomarker and determining whether to take supplements can be an important part of a health regime.

▶ HOW IT WORKS:

This test uses a small sample of blood in a compact testing kit which is mailed directly to you. In the box, there will be full instructions provided on how to complete the sample and testing process in 10 minutes.

The easy-to-use CE-approved testing kit is shipped within 24 business hours.

▶ IRON DEFICIENCY SYMPTOMS:

Monitoring your vitamin D levels to determine whether to take supplements can be an important part of regular health reviews and early diagnosis of medical issues. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with many diseases including:

  • Cancer
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Autoimmune diseases
  • Diabetes

Items Tested

25-hydroxy Vitamin D is the main storage form of vitamin D in the human body. The current status of vitamin D levels can be determined by detecting the content of 25-hydroxy Vitamin D.

▶ 25-hydroxy Vitamin D level less than 30ng/mL indicates Vitamin D Deficiency or Insufficiency.

The test provides results based on Deficient, Insufficient or Excess. Both Deficient and Insufficient results can then be used to request a secondary test or consult further medical advice.

Science

The at-home collection kit is a 25-hydroxy vitamin D (calcifediol) blood test that is used to determine how much vitamin D is in your body.[1] The blood concentration of calcifediol is considered the best indicator of vitamin D status.[2]

This test can be used to diagnose vitamin D deficiencies, as well as indicating a higher risk for a vitamin D deficiency. These results can be used as supporting evidence for the beginning of aggressive therapies in such patients.[3]

Patients with osteoporosis, chronic kidney disease, malabsorption, obesity, and a few other infections may be at high risk and have a greater indication from this test.[3] Our lateral flow technology device from Test Your Intolerance provides results based on three categories ‘Deficient, Insufficient or Excess’. Both Deficient and Insufficient results can then be used to consult further medical advice.
