Vitamin C Blood Test
The Vitamin C Blood Test
The Vitamin C Blood Test is a diagnostic tool that measures the concentration of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in your blood. Vitamin C plays a crucial role in supporting your immune system, promoting healthy skin, and ensuring overall cellular function. This test is ideal for individuals who may be at risk of vitamin C deficiency due to dietary restrictions, health conditions, or other factors.
The test helps to determine if you have an adequate amount of vitamin C in your body or if you require supplementation. Low levels of vitamin C can lead to a condition known as scurvy, which is characterized by fatigue, weakness, and other health complications. Early detection and supplementation can help prevent further health issues.

Vitamins (1 Biomarkers)
Your body requires vitamins as necessary nutrients to function properly. They must come from the food you consume because you cannot manufacture them yourself. There are two categories of vitamins: fat-soluble and water-soluble.
Oily foods, whether animal- or plant-based, contain fat-soluble vitamins like vitamins A, D, E, and K.
You don't need to eat them every day because your body stores them in fatty tissue and the liver. You must consume meals containing these nutrients more regularly because the majority of water-based vitamins, such as vitamin C, are not stored in the body.
A balanced diet should provide you with all the vitamins you require. But occasionally, dietary decisions or medical issues might make us vitamin deficient.
Vitamin C
Numerous fruits and vegetables, such as oranges, peppers, strawberries, blackcurrants, tomatoes, and potatoes, contain the water-soluble vitamin C.
Vitamin C is essential for collagen formation, iron absorption, wound healing, strong bones and teeth, and tissue growth and repair.
It also functions as an antioxidant and fends off dangerous free radicals.
