Specialty tests
Niche follow-up, near-duplicate, and rare-disease tests — usually only relevant if a clinician pointed you to one.
Not sure which nutrient tests you need?
Fatigue, tingling, hair shedding, and slow recovery overlap across several deficiencies. This starting set checks the deficiencies blood testing measures most directly, plus a blood count to show whether they have affected red blood cells.
- Fatigue or weakness without a clear cause
- Tingling, numbness, or concentration changes
- A vegan, vegetarian, or highly restricted diet
- Heavy periods, frequent blood donation, or a history of malabsorption
Nutrient status starter panel
- Complete blood count
Shows anemia and red blood cell patterns, but not which nutrient caused them.
- Ferritin (iron stores)
Measures stored iron and can identify depletion before hemoglobin falls. Inflammation can raise ferritin, so it belongs beside other iron measures.
- Iron and TIBC
Shows circulating iron and how much iron-binding capacity is available, complementing ferritin.
- Vitamin B12 and folate
Measures two nutrients that can affect blood cells and neurological function when low.
- Vitamin D, 25-hydroxy
Uses the standard blood marker for vitamin D status in people with symptoms or risk factors.

Before you test
Tests for vitamin and mineral deficiencies
Compare targeted tests for iron, vitamin B12, folate, vitamin D, and other suspected deficiencies.
What nutrient testing can show
- Whether iron stores are depleted and whether anemia is also present, using ferritin, iron studies, and a blood count.
- Whether vitamin B12 is low or borderline, with MMA helping confirm deficiency when the B12 result is unclear.
- Whether folate is low and whether the blood count shows changes consistent with folate or vitamin B12 deficiency.
- Whether 25-hydroxyvitamin D is low enough to indicate deficiency or inadequacy, interpreted in clinical context.
What nutrient testing cannot show
- A deficiency based on symptoms alone.
- Body stores equally well for every nutrient.
- Whether diet, absorption, blood loss, or medication caused a low level.
- Every nutritional or non-nutritional cause of symptoms.

FAQ
Common questions
Is there a lab draw fee?
Yes — a per-visit draw fee that varies by provider and is shown at checkout. It's charged per visit, not per test, so drawing several tests in one visit keeps it low. We pass it through at cost rather than averaging it.
Do I have to be a member to buy?
No. Anyone can order at the non-member price, no membership required. For $9/mo, membership unlocks member pricing plus the personalized action plan, longitudinal tracking, and AI health chat through Mito Concierge.
Why does the cart push me toward one lab for bloodwork?
If you're ordering five bloodwork tests, drawing all of them at one lab means one order fee instead of five. Scans (DEXA, MRI) and at-home kits are exceptions — they don't share blood draws with the labs, so we don't nudge.
What does $9/mo membership actually unlock?
Membership unlocks member pricing on marketplace panels. It also includes the personalized action plan, longitudinal tracking, and AI health chat — those live in members.mitohealth.com, not the marketplace. Every result is reviewed by a clinician whether or not you're a member; a live 1:1 clinician consult is an optional add-on.
I'm in New York. Why do I only see BioReference?
Direct-to-consumer lab orders work differently in New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island — our other partner labs don't serve patients there under our model, so BioReference is the in-state option. Switch your state with the location selector to see the labs available where you are.
What happens when I check out?
You'll enter your email and card details, and we'll confirm your card securely with Stripe. New customers get an email to finish setting up their account and book their appointment; existing members can log in to members.mitohealth.com right away.
