About Vegan Nutritional Maintenance & Vitamin Deficiency Testing in Rio Rancho
Vegan Nutritional Maintenance & Vitamin Deficiency Testing checks nine markers tied to nutrients of concern on a plant-based diet.
Vitamin B12 occurs naturally almost exclusively in animal foods, so vegans rely on fortified products or supplements. Serum B12 alone can appear normal while tissue stores are depleted, which is why this panel includes methylmalonic acid and homocysteine as functional indicators.
Vitamin D is synthesized in skin with sun exposure and is scarce in unfortified plant foods. The panel measures 25-hydroxyvitamin D, the standard circulating form used to assess overall vitamin D status.
Iron and zinc are present in plant foods but in forms that are absorbed less efficiently than those from animal sources. Ferritin reflects stored iron, while a full blood count helps show whether iron availability is affecting red blood cells.
