Description
Vitamin and nutrient deficiencies are surprisingly common and can affect your energy levels, concentration, mood, immunity and overall wellbeing.
The Vitamin Deficiency Check measures three important nutrients that are frequently linked to fatigue and reduced wellbeing: Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 and Folate.
Whether you’re experiencing low energy, feeling run down or simply want reassurance that your nutrient levels are healthy, this test provides a quick and convenient way to assess your vitamin status.
Why Consider a Vitamin Deficiency Test?
Many vitamin deficiencies develop gradually and can be difficult to recognise.
Symptoms are often mistaken for stress, ageing or a busy lifestyle and may persist for months before an underlying deficiency is identified.
You may benefit from this test if you are experiencing:
- Persistent tiredness
- Low energy levels
- Brain fog
- Poor concentration
- Reduced motivation
- Frequent illness
- Low mood
- General feelings of being run down
This test can help identify whether low vitamin levels may be contributing to your symptoms.
What Does This Test Assess?
Vitamin D
Vitamin D plays an important role in many aspects of health, including:
- Immune function
- Bone health
- Muscle function
- Energy levels
Low vitamin D levels are extremely common in the UK, particularly during the autumn and winter months.
Deficiency may contribute to:
- Fatigue
- Muscle aches
- Reduced wellbeing
- Increased susceptibility to illness
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is essential for:
- Energy production
- Healthy nerve function
- Red blood cell formation
- Cognitive function
Low Vitamin B12 levels may contribute to:
- Tiredness
- Brain fog
- Poor concentration
- Tingling or numbness
- Low mood
Vegetarians, vegans and individuals with certain digestive conditions may be at increased risk of deficiency.
Folate (Vitamin B9)
Folate plays a vital role in:
- Red blood cell production
- DNA synthesis
- Cellular repair
- Healthy nervous system function
Low folate levels may contribute to:
- Fatigue
- Weakness
- Poor concentration
- Certain forms of anaemia
Folate is often assessed alongside Vitamin B12 because deficiencies can sometimes occur together.
Why Are These Nutrients Important?
Your body relies on vitamins and nutrients to support normal energy production, immune function and overall health.
Even mild deficiencies can affect how you feel day to day and may contribute to symptoms that interfere with work, exercise and quality of life.
Identifying low levels allows you to make informed decisions about diet, supplementation and further healthcare advice where appropriate.

- Feel tired or lacking energy
