Nutrient Deficiency Panel - Test of the Month:
Fasting Required: 10-12 hours
Lab: Quest Diagnostics
Specimen: Blood
Results: Average processing time 3-5 days
Note: Result turnaround times are an estimate and are not guaranteed. Our reference lab may need additional time due to weather, holidays, confirmation/repeat testing, or equipment maintenance.
Special Instructions: Refrain from vitamins, alcohol and fruits 24 hours prior to sample collection. Dietary supplements containing biotin may interfere in assays and may skew results to be either falsely high or falsely low. For patients receiving the recommended daily doses of biotin, draw samples at least 8 hours following the last biotin supplementation. For patients on mega-doses of biotin supplements, draw samples at least 72 hours following the last biotin supplementation.
Samples should be taken in the morning from patients in a fasting state, since iron values decrease by 30% during the course of the day and there can be significant interference from lipemia.
Description: Fuel your body with precision. Our Nutrient Deficiency Panel is a targeted blood assessment designed to identify critical gaps in your essential vitamins, minerals, and metabolic foundations. Left undetected, subtle nutrient deficiencies can cause chronic fatigue, weakened immunity, brain fog, and long-term health decline. This panel gives you the exact data you need to optimize your diet, lifestyle, and supplementation strategy.

What This Panel Measures:
- Essential Oxygen & Blood Building: Measures Iron to ensure your body can produce hemoglobin, transport oxygen effectively, and prevent iron-deficiency anemia—a leading cause of low physical stamina and exhaustion.
- Nervous System & Nerve Function: Tracks Vitamin B12 to evaluate cellular energy production, red blood cell synthesis, DNA manufacturing, and optimal neurological function.
- Immune & Bone Health Master: Measures Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy) to assess your baseline levels of this critical hormone-like vitamin, which dictates bone density, calcium absorption, immune system resilience, and mood regulation.
- Cellular & Muscle Recovery Mineral: Measures Magnesium (Serum) to evaluate an essential mineral responsible for over 300 biochemical reactions, including muscle relaxation, nerve signaling, steady heart rhythms, and deep sleep.
- Metabolic & Fluid Balance Baseline: Includes a full CMP-14 (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel) to assess your body's overall fluid balance, electrolyte levels (sodium, potassium, calcium), kidney filtration, and liver function, ensuring your body is metabolically primed to absorb and utilize nutrients.
