A broad nutrient test drawn at home anywhere in Brooklyn, with a New York-licensed provider to explain what the results can and cannot tell you.
This test measures a wide range of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants. Some versions also look at how well your cells use these nutrients.
Adults with symptoms that might be linked to nutrition, people with restricted diets, and those who want data to guide supplements.
Your provider draws your blood at home. At your follow-up, you go over the results and any diet or supplement changes they suggest.
Your labs are drawn and reviewed by a licensed medical provider.
We walk you through your results in a visit, not just a PDF.
No lab waiting room. Your provider comes to you in Brooklyn.
Your provider reviews your health history, symptoms and goals, then explains what the nutrient test checks and whether it fits you.
You are told whether to fast and which supplements or medicines to pause before the draw. Some nutrient results change after recent supplements, so you may be asked to pause them.
Your provider draws blood at your home, labels it and sends it to the lab. Most draws take only a few minutes.
When results are back, your provider walks you through each number, what it means and what, if anything, to do next.
Standard labs check a few nutrients, such as B12, folate or vitamin D. Advanced nutrient tests check many more, but some methods are not used in routine medical care and experts disagree on how useful they are.
If a result is low, your provider usually suggests food changes first and only the supplements you need, at safe doses.
Some vitamins, such as A, D and iron, can build up and cause harm. Your provider will not suggest high doses without a clear reason.
Labs that test samples from New York patients must hold a New York State permit for that test. Your provider uses a permitted lab, which is why the exact lab used in Brooklyn may differ from other states.
Plant-based diets, long workdays and frequent takeout all shape nutrient intake. Your provider reads your results alongside how you actually eat.
Your provider collects the sample during your visit, so you skip the trip to a lab. The lab’s handling steps are followed exactly.
No. Standard labs check a few nutrients, such as B12 or vitamin D. This test checks many more at once. Some advanced nutrient tests are not part of routine medical care, and experts debate how much they change outcomes.
Only if your results and health suggest it. Your provider will recommend changes to food first when possible and only the supplements you need.
Some tests are more accurate after fasting. Your provider will tell you if you need to fast and for how long when you book.
