The Folate RBC Test measures folate levels inside red blood cells, providing a more accurate reflection of long-term folate status than serum tests. Folate is essential for DNA synthesis, red blood cell production, and nervous system health. Low levels may indicate poor diet, malabsorption, or anemia. Doctors order this test for patients with fatigue, weakness, or neurological issues. Results help diagnose folate deficiency and guide nutritional treatment.

The Folate Serum Test measures folate (vitamin B9) levels in blood to evaluate nutritional status and overall health. Low folate may cause anemia, fatigue, weakness, or pregnancy complications, while high levels may reflect supplementation. Doctors order this test to investigate unexplained anemia, monitor prenatal health, or assess dietary deficiencies. It provides valuable insight into red blood cell production, metabolism, and nutritional balance.

The Folate Micronutrient Test measures blood folate levels to assess nutritional status and detect deficiencies. Folate is essential for DNA synthesis, red blood cell production, and proper fetal development. This test helps identify dietary insufficiency, malabsorption issues, or increased nutrient needs, supporting the diagnosis and management of anemia, pregnancy health, and overall wellness.

Patient must be 18 years of age or older.

The Vitamin B12 and Folate Panel Test measures blood levels of vitamin B12 and folate to evaluate nutritional status, red blood cell production, and nervous system health. Deficiencies may cause anemia, fatigue, weakness, neuropathy, or cognitive decline, while elevated levels can indicate liver or kidney disease. Doctors use this panel to diagnose deficiency, monitor therapy, and assess absorption disorders such as pernicious anemia, Crohn’s disease, or celiac disease.

The Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) DNA Mutation Analysis detects genetic variants in the MTHFR gene that affect folate metabolism and homocysteine regulation. Mutations may increase risk for blood clots, cardiovascular disease, pregnancy complications, or certain neurological conditions. Doctors use this test to evaluate unexplained blood clotting, high homocysteine levels, or family history of related disorders.

The Advanced Methylation Precision Panel is Ulta Lab Tests’ most comprehensive evaluation of methylation-related health. This panel organizes laboratory testing across core methylation pathways, integrating nutrient status, functional biomarkers, genetic factors, inflammation, oxidative stress, and metabolic context.

The Methylation Essentials Panel provides a comprehensive baseline evaluation of core laboratory markers involved in the body’s methylation process. Methylation is a fundamental biochemical pathway that supports nutrient metabolism, cardiovascular wellness, energy production, and cellular maintenance.

 The Vitamins & Minerals - Basic panel is a fundamental health assessment tool designed to provide a snapshot of an individual's nutritional status and potential deficiencies. This panel includes a suite of tests that measure the levels of essential nutrients and minerals in the body, which are critical for various bodily functions and overall well-being. The tests included in this panel are Ferritin, Folate Serum, Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC), and Magnesium Serum. Each of these tests plays a significant role in evaluating different aspects of health, from anemia and iron metabolism to nerve function and energy production.

The Medication Clarity & Brain Balance Panel assesses medication-related effects on thinking and alertness using Vitamin B12, Methylmalonic Acid (MMA), Folate, Homocysteine, and Ammonia. These tests help identify nutrient and metabolic factors that may contribute to memory changes, brain fog, confusion, sleepiness, or balance issueswhile taking medications.

The Methylation Pathway Optimization Panel provides a comprehensive evaluation of the key nutrients, functional biomarkers, and genetic factors that influence methylation efficiency. Methylation is a critical biochemical process involved in cardiovascular wellness, energy production, cognitive function, and cellular maintenance.

The UltaNutrient™ Functional Nutrient Status Panel delivers an advanced evaluation of vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, and functional biomarkers that reflect how nutrients are utilized at the cellular level. By measuring homocysteine, methylmalonic acid, hs-CRP, iron status, magnesium (serum and RBC), folate (serum and RBC), trace minerals, and key vitamins, this panel provides deep insight into metabolic efficiency and nutrient balance.

The UltaNutrient™ Comprehensive Nutrient & Metabolic Panel combines extensive vitamin and mineral testing with a full Comprehensive Metabolic Panel and functional biomarkers. Measuring iron metabolism, magnesium (serum and RBC), trace minerals, vitamins A, B6, B12, D, E, folate (serum and RBC), homocysteine, MMA, hs-CRP, and electrolytes, this panel delivers an integrated view of nutrient utilization and metabolic health.

 The Anemia Health - Advanced panel is a thorough diagnostic tool designed to evaluate various factors that contribute to anemia. This panel extends beyond basic anemia screening by including tests that assess inflammation, iron metabolism, red blood cell production, and potential hereditary conditions. It comprises C-Reactive Protein, Complete Blood Count with Differential and Platelets, Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Ferritin, Folate Serum, Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity, Reticulocyte Count, Sickle Cell Screen, and Transferrin.

The UltaNutrient™ Core Nutrient Screening Panel evaluates essential vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes that support metabolic balance, hydration, nerve signaling, and overall wellness. By measuring vitamin D, B12, folate, magnesium, and key electrolytes, this panel provides a clear snapshot of foundational nutritional status and internal balance to support informed health discussions.

 The Vitamins & Minerals - Basic Plus panel is an enhanced panel that goes beyond the foundational nutritional screening provided by the basic panel. This panel includes a wider range of tests to assess an person's nutritional status. The tests included in this panel are Ferritin, Folate Serum, Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC), Magnesium Serum, Prealbumin, QuestAssureD 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Total with D2 and D3, Transferrin, and Vitamin B12.
