Details about Nutritional Health
What is a Nutritional Health Test?
The Nutritional Health panel is a comprehensive blood test designed to assess vitamin levels, mineral balance, iron status, metabolic function, thyroid health, liver function, and digestive absorption.
This profile includes:
• Full Blood Count (FBC)
• Albumin and Adjusted Calcium
• Iron studies (Iron, Ferritin, TIBC, Transferrin, Saturation)
• Folate, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Zinc, Magnesium
• Cholesterol profile and triglycerides
• Glucose, HbA1c, Insulin
• Liver Function Tests and Bilirubin
• Thyroid panel with antibodies (TSH, FT4, FT3, Anti-TPO, Anti-Tg)
• Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase antibodies (coeliac screening)
• Pancreatic Amylase
It helps identify whether symptoms are linked to poor nutrient absorption, deficiency, or metabolic imbalance.

Follow these guidelines for accurate results
Sample Timing
Where possible, attend your blood test between 7am and 12pm. Please wait until any short-term illness or infection has fully resolved before testing. Avoid intense exercise for 24–48 hours beforehand, as this can affect certain markers.
Fasting & Hydration
Fasting is not always required, but some tests may recommend it. If fasting is advised, avoid food for 8–12 hours before your appointment and drink water only. Stay well hydrated, as this helps with sample collection and accuracy.
Medications & Supplements
Continue prescribed medications unless advised otherwise by your clinician. Avoid vitamin, mineral, or biotin supplements for at least 24–48 hours before your test, as these can interfere with results. If you are unsure about any medication or supplement, please let us know before your appointment.
Hormones & Menstrual Cycle
For hormone-related tests, timing within your menstrual cycle may be important. If relevant, follow any specific guidance provided on your test page.
If you have any questions or special circumstances, our team is happy to advise before your appointment.
