A Vitamin Blood Test checks whether your body is getting the essential nutrients it needs to function at its best. Low levels of key vitamins can leave you feeling tired, foggy, run down, or just not quite yourself.
Feeling Run Down or Foggy? Comprehensive Vitamin Blood Test – Uncover Nutrient Gaps and Restore Your Vitality
Tired, unfocused, or catching every bug going?
It could be low vitamins silently sabotaging your energy, mood, and resilience – especially on restricted diets, with medications, or during recovery. Our Vitamin Blood Test panels key essentials (B1, B2, B6, A, C, E, Beta-Carotene), giving you a clear snapshot to fix imbalances and feel energised again.
Perfect for vegans, vegetarians, low-carb eaters, or anyone wanting to optimise health without guesswork. Get lab-accurate results with a professional nurse at home.
The Sneaky Impact of Vitamin Deficiencies – Why You’re Not Feeling Your Best
Vitamins are your body’s unsung heroes: B vitamins fuel energy and brain power, A/C/E protect immunity and skin, Beta-Carotene boosts vision. But modern life – poor diets, stress, meds (e.g., for gut issues), or limited sun – depletes them fast. Mild shortages cause fatigue, low mood, brain fog, brittle nails, dry skin, frequent infections, slow healing, tingling, or vision woes – mimicking “just ageing” or “busy days.”
The frustration? Symptoms build gradually, derailing focus, workouts, or immunity without a clear cause. If you’re vegan (missing B vitamins from meat), on low-carb (fewer fruits/veg), recovering from illness, or managing conditions, risks rise. Without testing, you’re shooting in the dark – but this panel reveals exactly what’s missing, empowering targeted fixes.
Don’t let nutrient gaps hold you back – reclaim your sharpness and stamina.
Is a Vitamin Imbalance Behind Your Symptoms? Key Signs to Watch
If unexplained tiredness or off-days persist, this test could be your answer. Common triggers include:
- Fatigue, low energy, or feeling run down?
- Poor concentration, mood changes, or brain fog?
- Frequent infections, slow healing, or dry skin/brittle nails?
- Tingling, numbness, muscle weakness, or vision problems?
- Restricted diet (vegan/vegetarian/low-carb) or meds interfering with absorption?
These hit hard in the UK – think winter blues or hectic routines.

This blood test is to check on:
- Vitamin levels
The test should be taken on an empty stomach first thing in a morning before any food, drinks, medication or dietary supplements.
Collection method: Venous blood
Results available: 2-3 days after the sample has reached the laboratory.
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine)
A Vitamin B1 Blood Test checks the level of thiamine in your blood — an essential B vitamin your body needs to turn food into energy. Thiamine plays a key role in nerve function, muscle health, and brain activity, and your body can’t store much of it, so you need a regular supply through your diet.
Vitamin B2
A Vitamin B2 Blood Test measures the amount of riboflavin in your blood — a B vitamin that helps your body produce energy, supports healthy skin and eyes, and plays a key role in cell growth and metabolism. Riboflavin also helps the body process other B vitamins, including B6 and folate.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)
A Vitamin B6 Blood Test checks your levels of pyridoxine — a vital B vitamin involved in brain function, mood regulation, red blood cell production, and how your body uses protein, carbohydrates, and fats. It also supports your nervous and immune systems.
Beta-Carotene
A Beta-Carotene Blood Test measures the level of beta-carotene in your blood — a powerful antioxidant and a key source of vitamin A. Found naturally in colourful fruits and vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, and spinach, beta-carotene helps support your vision, immune system, and skin health.
Vitamin A (Retinol)
A Vitamin A Blood Test measures the amount of vitamin A in your bloodstream — a fat-soluble vitamin that’s essential for healthy vision, immune function, reproduction, and skin health. It also plays a key role in the growth and repair of cells throughout the body.
Vitamin C
A Vitamin C Blood Test measures the level of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in your blood — a powerful antioxidant that’s vital for immune defence, collagen production, wound healing, and the absorption of iron. It also helps protect your cells from oxidative stress.
Vitamin E (alpha Tocopherol)
A Vitamin E Blood Test measures the level of alpha-tocopherol,( the most active form of vitamin E) in your blood. As a powerful antioxidant, vitamin E helps protect your cells from damage, supports immune function, and plays a role in skin and eye health, as well as nerve and muscle function.
