Our blood analysis package has been specially designed by medical experts for the broadest possible overview of your health. The exact values that we measure, as well as questions and answers, can be found here: To the blood values
Our blood analysis is intended for health prevention and is therefore mainly aimed at healthy people. If you have any complaints, you should always contact the doctor you trust. If you’re interested in gaining insight into your health, our blood analysis is just for you. If all values are in the green range, you know that you are doing something right. And if values are outside the reference range, you can act before complaints occur.
By the way, we measure the most important values in vegan nutrition with our vitamin B12 add-on. Especially if you have just changed your diet, it makes sense to check your blood values.
We recommend that a comprehensive blood analysis like ours be done about once a year, provided all values are good. If some of your values are not optimal, we will tell you in our recommendations if and when you should have them checked again.
