What is a nutrition blood test?
A nutrition blood test measures levels of essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients in your blood to assess your nutritional status and identify any deficiencies.
Why should I consider taking a nutrition blood test?
Understanding your nutrient levels can help identify deficiencies that may affect your health, allowing for targeted dietary adjustments or supplementation to improve overall well-being.
Which nutrients are typically assessed in a nutrition blood test?
Common nutrients evaluated include vitamins such as B12 and D, minerals like iron and magnesium, and essential fatty acids like omega-3 and omega-6.
How do I prepare for a nutrition blood test?
Preparation may vary depending on the specific test. We advise collecting your blood sample within 3 hours of waking and before you eat. To help make the sample collection easier, we also advise drinking a large glass of water 30 minutes before your test. Warming your hands and doing some light exercise, such as walking, can help increase blood flow and make the whole process quicker, too.
How is the blood sample collected?
Blood samples are collected through a finger-prick test or a venous blood draw. Some more advanced tests can only be done by collecting a blood sample from your vein, such as our Advanced Health Check and Ultimate Health Check. You can find out more about how to collect your blood sample here.
How long does it take to receive results?
You’ll get your blood test results 2 working days after your blood sample reaches our lab. Our Ultimate Health Check has a 15 day turnaround.
Are at-home nutrition blood tests accurate?
Yes – Forth’s at-home nutrition blood tests are accurate, reliable, and scientifically validated.
All our finger-prick tests have been assessed in an NHS study for their accuracy compared to traditional venous blood draws (where blood is taken from a vein) and for their stability when sent through the post. Dr Thom Phillips, our Head of Clinical Services, explains: “The NHS labs we work with confirmed that our tests produce statistically validated results, equivalent to those you’d get from your GP. They’re safe, reliable, and clinically trusted.”
How often should I take a nutrition blood test?
The frequency depends on individual health needs, dietary habits, and the presence of any medical conditions, but we recommend testing every 6 months to track changes in your health and learn trends.
