Vitamins & Minerals Blood Test
A blood test assessing selected vitamins, minerals and iron levels. It may help investigate suspected nutritional deficiencies where you have persistent tiredness, a restricted diet or a condition affecting nutrient absorption. Please book following clinical advice so we can confirm that this panel is appropriate for your needs.
What does it check?
- Iron studies: iron, ferritin, total iron-binding capacity, transferrin and transferrin saturation
- Vitamin B12 and folate: support red blood cell production, with B12 also supporting nerve function
- Vitamin D: supports calcium regulation, bone and muscle health
- Adjusted calcium: assesses calcium levels alongside albumin
- Magnesium: supports normal muscle and nerve function
- Zinc: supports immune function and wound healing
- Albumin: a blood protein that helps put other results into context
Who may benefit?
This test may suit anyone experiencing persistent tiredness, low energy or concerns about their nutritional intake, particularly those with restricted or vegan diets, malabsorption conditions, long-term supplement use or dietary limitations where a deficiency is being considered alongside other possible causes.

Results and follow-up
A clinician will review your results, explain the findings and advise on next steps. These may include dietary advice, appropriate supplementation, further investigations or follow-up with your own GP. A telephone consultation with Dr Iqbal, our GP and Medical Director, is included where clinically required, at no additional charge. With your consent, we can provide your results and a clinical summary to your own GP if further assessment is needed.
£159 includes blood collection, laboratory testing, clinician review and an explanation of your results, with a GP telephone consultation where clinically required. A £25 booking deposit is deducted from the total, leaving £134 payable at your appointment. A separate initial consultation to discuss symptoms or choose tests is not included. Any additional investigations, consultations or treatment will be discussed and priced before proceeding.
Please read our cancellation policy before booking.
Important information
This panel measures selected nutrients, not every vitamin and mineral. Results must be assessed alongside your symptoms, diet, medical history and supplement use.
A full blood count is not included, so additional testing may be needed to investigate anaemia.
Albumin can be affected by inflammation and liver or kidney conditions, as well as nutritional factors.
