ULTIMATE NUTRITION BLOOD TEST OVERVIEW

The Ultimate Nutrition blood test measures key biomarkers that reflect your nutritional status by testing the levels of micronutrients in your blood.

It also examines the way your body processes nutrients such as sugars and fats. These markers include vitamin D which is important for bone health and immunity, folic acid and vitamin B12 which are involved in the process of making blood and maintaining the health of the nervous system, ferritin which reflects the body's store of iron, and magnesium, calcium and other electrolytes which are involved in the conduction of nerve impulses and muscle contractions.

We also test cholesterol levels and blood sugar levels which reflect the long term health impact of diet and lifestyle choices.

The ultimate nutrition test also checks your levels of omega fatty acids including omega 3 which has anti-inflammatory properties and is important for brain and heart health, and omega 6 which is pro-inflammatory and excess levels of which can be harmful.

ULTIMATE NUTRITION BLOOD TEST

Measure key biomarkers that reflect your nutritional status by testing the levels of micronutrients in your blood.

Vitamins and Minerals

Vitamins and minerals are fundamental to almost every process in the body, from energy production and immune function to bone health and nerve signalling. Many deficiencies develop gradually and without obvious symptoms, meaning they can go undetected for long periods of time. Regularly monitoring levels of key nutrients such as Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, folate, magnesium, calcium, and zinc allows potential deficiencies to be identified early, before they develop into more serious health concerns. For many people, diet alone may not be sufficient to maintain optimal levels, making regular testing an important part of proactive health management.

Cholesterol and Diabetes

Cholesterol and blood sugar levels are two of the most important indicators of long-term cardiovascular and metabolic health. Elevated cholesterol can contribute to the build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke, often without any noticeable symptoms. Similarly, persistently high blood sugar levels can be an early warning sign of type 2 diabetes, a condition that if left unmanaged can lead to serious complications affecting the kidneys, eyes, nerves, and heart. Monitoring these markers regularly enables early intervention through dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, or medical treatment, significantly reducing the risk of long-term complications.

Omega Fatty Acids

Omega fatty acids, particularly omega 3 and omega 6, play an essential role in brain health, heart function, and the body's inflammatory response. While omega 3 has well-established anti-inflammatory properties, an excess of omega 6 relative to omega 3 can promote inflammation, which has been linked to a range of chronic conditions including cardiovascular disease, arthritis, and metabolic disorders. Monitoring omega fatty acid levels provides valuable insight into the balance between these two essential fats, helping to guide dietary choices and supplementation to support long-term health and wellbeing.

Clinic appointment - how to prepare for the Ultimate Nutrition Blood Test

Home test kit - how it works with the Ultimate Nutrition Blood Test

Our blood test kits are simple and convenient.

The most important step in doing a blood test at home is to read the instructions very carefully. The process is very simple, but there are a few pitfalls you need to be aware of - you will save yourself a lot of time if you do it right the first time around!

  • Full printed instructions will arrive with your kit - please read them carefully.
  • Drink plenty before taking the sample and warm your hands up in the sink with warm water for a few minutes. This will make your blood flow much better.
  • Fill the tubes to the top line. We don’t need much blood; filling tubes to the top line is about 15 drops of blood.
  • Post the samples on the same day you take them, before midday, Monday to Thursday. If you post it any other time it might get to us late or be stuck at a sorting office over the weekend. You will then have to do it again.
  • Package the sample in the same box the kit came in. Otherwise, Royal Mail or DPD will reject it. The sample tubes go into a pouch, then into a cardboard box, and then into a return envelope. All of this is provided in the kit: please use it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Hi, I am Lana Nela, Lead Nurse, and here is what we are frequently asked about this test.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about the Ultimate Nutrition Blood Test.

What’s the difference between total and active vitamin B12?


Total Vitamin B12 measures all circulating forms of B12 in the blood, including those not immediately available for the body to use. Active B12, also known as holotranscobalamin, represents the portion that is directly accessible to cells. Measuring both provides a more complete and accurate assessment of a person's true B12 status, particularly in cases of early or borderline deficiency.
