The Vitamins & Minerals + ( Omegas, CMP & CBC) - Comprehensive panel contains 27 tests with 97 biomarkers.
Brief Description: The Vitamins & Minerals + (Omegas, CMP & CBC) - Comprehensive panel is an extensive diagnostic tool designed to provide an all-encompassing view of an individual's health. This panel evaluates a wide array of nutritional markers, metabolic functions, essential fatty acids, and blood health indicators. It's tailored to offer deep insights into the body's current nutritional status, identify potential deficiencies or excesses, and understand the overall metabolic and hematological health, making it an invaluable asset for comprehensive health assessments and personalized healthcare strategies.
Collection Method: Blood Draw
Specimen Type: Whole Blood, Serum, Packed RBCs, and Plasma
Test Preparation: Fasting for at least 12 hours is required. Collection should be done in the morning.
Patient should refrain from taking vitamins or mineral herbal supplements for at least one week before sample collection.
Patient is to be restricted from alcohol, coffee, tea, raw fish, liver, pork, sausage and vitamins for at least 24 hours before sample collection
Healthcare providers may order this comprehensive panel for individuals exhibiting symptoms that suggest nutritional deficiencies, metabolic imbalances, or those with conditions that could benefit from a detailed health overview. It's also ideal for individuals seeking to optimize their health through a thorough understanding of their nutritional and metabolic status, as well as for monitoring the effectiveness of ongoing treatments or dietary interventions.
The panel provides a detailed assessment through various tests:
Complete Blood Count with Differential and Platelets evaluates blood cell health, crucial for identifying anemia, infections, and hematological conditions.
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel offers insights into liver and kidney function, electrolyte balance, and glucose metabolism.
Copper and Zinc levels are tested to assess essential trace elements involved in numerous physiological functions, including immune response and antioxidant defense.
Ferritin, Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity, and Transferrin provide a comprehensive view of iron metabolism, crucial for diagnosing various forms of anemia.
Folate Serum and Vitamin B12 assessments are key for understanding red blood cell health and neurological function.
Homocysteine levels can indicate cardiovascular risk and vitamin B status.
Iodine is crucial for thyroid hormone production, impacting metabolic rate and energy levels.
Magnesium Serum and Magnesium RBC tests assess magnesium levels, important for muscle and nerve function.
Omega -3 and -6 Fatty Acids analysis helps understand the balance of these essential fats, impacting cardiovascular health and inflammation.
Prealbumin serves as a marker of nutritional status and protein levels.
QuestAssureD 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Total with D2 and D3 measures vitamin D levels, essential for bone health and immune function.
Selenium, Vitamin A, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, Vitamin D 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin, Vitamin E, and Vitamin K tests provide an extensive evaluation of vitamin levels, essential for various bodily functions, including vision, skin health, energy metabolism, antioxidant defense, and blood clotting.
This comprehensive panel aids in detecting a multitude of conditions:
Nutritional deficiencies and toxicities: Pinpointing deficits or excesses in essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements.
Metabolic disorders: Assessing liver and kidney function, glucose and protein metabolism, and electrolyte balance.
Anemia: Diagnosing various forms of anemia through detailed iron and vitamin assessments.
Cardiovascular risk: Evaluating homocysteine and omega fatty acid levels for heart health insights.
Thyroid disorders: Iodine and other related tests provide crucial information about thyroid health.
Immune system disorders: Certain nutrient levels, like selenium and vitamin D, are closely linked to immune function.
Healthcare professionals leverage the results from this panel to craft comprehensive treatment and management plans for conditions detected, involving dietary modifications, supplementation, or pharmacological interventions. Regular monitoring with this panel facilitates the dynamic adjustment of treatment strategies to meet the evolving health needs of individuals.
The Vitamins & Minerals + (Omegas, CMP & CBC) - Comprehensive Panel stands as a pinnacle in health assessment, offering an unrivaled breadth of insights into nutritional status, metabolic health, and more. By providing a detailed landscape of an individual's health, this panel is instrumental in guiding personalized healthcare, optimizing nutritional status, and enhancing overall well-being.
