Vitamin Panel

Advanced wellness

also vitamin status panel, fat- and water-soluble vitamin profile

What it isA bundled assay measuring core fat- and water-soluble vitamins — typically 25-OH vitamin D, A (retinol), E (alpha-tocopherol), K, B12, folate, B6 (PLP), B1 (thiamine), and B2. Detects subclinical deficiencies relevant to energy, immunity, cognition, and bone.

DoesMaps systemic micronutrient status in a single draw, identifying gaps that single-marker tests miss.

GoodMid-to-upper-normal levels across the panel reflect well-stocked stores and robust metabolic, immune, and neurological.

BadMultiple low values flag dietary, absorption, or genetic issues; very high fat-soluble values (A, D, E) suggest over-supplementation and toxicity risk. B12 and folate deficiency drive neurologic and hematologic problems; D deficiency drives bone and immune dysfunction.

Standard

Vitamin-specific (see individual entries).

Optimal

Mid-to-upper normal across components; specifics in each vitamin entry (narrow target)

Modifiers

Fasting state, recent supplementation, malabsorption, age, and pregnancy all shift values.

How to optimize

Lifestyle: Sun exposure for D; address malabsorption (celiac, gastric surgery, gut disease); minimize alcohol which depletes B vitamins.
Diet: Whole-food, varied diet including animal products or fortified alternatives, fatty fish, leafy greens, eggs, nuts, seeds.
Supplements: Targeted to specific deficiencies — see individual vitamin entries for dose ranges.
