VITAMIN D PROFILE

What is a VITAMIN D PROFILE test? 

A thorough blood test that gauges the body's Vitamin D levels is the VITAMIN D PROFILE test. In order to give a thorough examination of vitamin D status, this profile evaluates several forms of vitamin D, such as 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (calcitriol) and 25-hydroxy vitamin D (calcidiol).

What does VITAMIN D PROFILE test measure? 

The VITAMIN D PROFILE test evaluates a number of vitamin D-related factors, including:

Calcidiol, or 25-hydroxy vitamin D, assesses the body's total vitamin D level by taking food consumption and sun exposure into account.

Calcitriol, or 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D, is the active form of vitamin D that is evaluated. It is important for immune system function, bone health, and the regulation of calcium and phosphorus.

Benefits of VITAMIN D PROFILE test

The VITAMIN D PROFILE test offers several benefits:
