About Vegan Nutritional Maintenance & Vitamin Deficiency Testing in Edina
A focused panel for monitoring the nutrients most likely to run low on a vegan diet.
Vitamin B12 occurs naturally almost exclusively in animal foods, so vegans who do not use fortified products or supplements are at risk of low levels. Because B12 is involved in red blood cell formation and nerve function, deficiency can develop gradually and may not be obvious at first.
Iron and vitamin D are also common concerns. Plant sources of iron are less readily absorbed than heme iron, and vitamin D depends heavily on sun exposure and fortification. The panel includes markers that reflect iron stores and vitamin D status so that these nutrients can be tracked over time.
Other markers in this profile address nutrients such as calcium, zinc, and omega-3 related indices that can be affected by the composition of a plant-based diet. Results are best interpreted alongside a clinician who understands the individual's dietary history and health context.
