Identify Deficiencies
You can eat well, take supplements, and still not know whether your nutrition is actually meeting your body’s needs. Many vitamin and mineral shortfalls cause few clear symptoms, so it is easy to miss them or to assume the wrong thing.
Vitall’s Nutritional Assessment measures a focused set of vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin D, alongside markers such as ferritin, magnesium, folate, active B12, and calcium. It helps you identify potential deficiencies and track whether changes you make are having the intended effect.
If you want clarity rather than guesswork, this test gives you an objective baseline and a practical way to decide what to adjust, and what to stop.

What the Nutritional Assessment test is for
You can eat well and still be unsure whether your nutrition is actually meeting your body’s needs. Many vitamin and mineral shortfalls develop quietly, with vague or no symptoms, so it is easy to miss them or to misattribute how you feel to stress, sleep, or training.
Vitall’s Nutritional Assessment is a home blood test designed to give you an objective snapshot of key vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin D, alongside practical markers such as ferritin for iron stores, magnesium, folate (Vitamin B9), active Vitamin B12, and calcium. Together, these results can indicate where intake may be falling short, where absorption or storage might be an issue, and whether a low result is likely to be meaningful in context.
This home test kit is also useful if you are already taking supplements. Testing from home allows you to check whether your current approach is moving levels in the right direction, so you can decide what to adjust, what to continue, and what may not be necessary.
Used as a baseline and repeated when appropriate, the Nutritional Assessment helps you replace guesswork with measurable information, so any changes you make to diet or supplementation are driven by data rather than assumptions.

How this works ›Why take the Nutritional Assessment test?
For people who eat well but still feel unsure whether their diet is meeting their needs, especially when symptoms are vague, inconsistent, or easy to put down to stress, sleep, or training.
For anyone who wants to identify potential vitamin and mineral shortfalls with an objective baseline, rather than relying on assumptions.
For those already using supplements who want to check whether their current approach is actually improving levels, so they can decide what to adjust, what to continue, and what to stop.
- Are already taking supplements and want to check whether they’re improving levels so you can adjust what to continue or stop.
- Eat well but want an objective baseline to confirm you’re meeting vitamin and mineral needs (rather than guessing).
- Have vague, inconsistent symptoms that could reflect micronutrient shortfalls and want to rule these in/out with data.
- Want to assess whether absorption or iron storage may be an issue using markers like ferritin alongside vitamins/minerals.
- Want to check vitamin and mineral status (e.g., vitamin D, B12, folate, ferritin/iron, magnesium, calcium) to explain low energy and support normal function
- Want to check your vitamin and mineral status (e.g., to explain fatigue/low energy and support performance)

Albumin (ALB) is a protein produced by the liver and is the most abundant protein in the blood.
It transports components throughout the body, nourishes tissues & prevents blood vessel leakage.
Albumin is highly sensitive to liver damage so lower levels can indicate when the liver is damaged.
Many other factors also affect albumin levels, such as malnutrition, acute illnesses and inflammation.
