Order Vegan Nutritional Maintenance & Vitamin Deficiency TestingA vegan diet can be nutritionally complete, but it requires attention to nutrients that are scarce or absent in plant foods.

About Vegan Nutritional Maintenance & Vitamin Deficiency Testing in Berkeley
Vegan Nutritional Maintenance & Vitamin Deficiency Testing checks the nutrients most likely to run low when animal foods are excluded.
Vitamin B12 is the nutrient of greatest concern for vegans because it occurs naturally almost exclusively in animal foods. Serum B12, along with methylmalonic acid when included, helps distinguish a true deficiency from a borderline result.
Vitamin D, iron, and zinc are not unique to animal products, but their plant forms are absorbed less efficiently, and deficiency can develop without obvious symptoms. Ferritin reflects stored iron, while zinc and vitamin D status are assessed directly.
Other markers in this panel address nutrients such as folate, calcium, and omega-3 related indices, which can be affected by dietary patterns over time. Results are interpreted alongside diet history and clinical context.
