Maintaining a healthy, well-balanced and nutritious diet is the easiest way to stay fit and healthy. But sometimes, people experience deficiencies in essential vitamins and minerals through no fault of their own. A lack of certain essential nutrients can leave people feeling generally unwell and susceptible to illness. That's why regular vitamin and mineral health screening is such a good idea.
Even if you feel OK, nutrient deficiencies could be having a profound effect on issues such as your energy levels, mental health and immune system. By identifying deficiencies early, you can make the necessary lifestyle changes or pursue relevant treatments before your symptoms worsen.
A private vitamins and mineral health screening appointment at an iGP clinic couldn't be easier or more comfortable. An experienced and fully qualified physician will take your sample in one of our modern clinics. Your sample will then be sent to one of our trusted laboratories for express analysis. You should receive your results within just a few days.
Among the vitamins and minerals we look for are:
Iron
Ferritin
Transferrin
Albumin
Calcium
Magnesium
Folic acid
Zinc
Vitamin D
If we discover a deficiency, our clinicians will advise a course of treatment or a series of lifestyle changes. You may be advised to take supplements orally or via injections.
Depending on the deficiency you have, you might be experiencing some very specific symptoms. For example, if you're deficient in iron, you might be struggling to concentrate and suffering from a sore tongue. If you're deficient in ferritin, you may be experiencing chronic headaches, leg pains and tinnitus. Your clinician will assess your test results and symptoms before diagnosing the problem or instigating an investigation.
Some of the generic symptoms related to vitamin and mineral deficiencies include:
Chronic fatigue
Weakness
Mood swings
A general feeling of ill health
Unexplained weight problems
If you cancel your appointment 24 hours before it starts, then you will receive a full refund.
