Cheapest vitamin D test among eight we compare

Above-median price for a 4-marker iron panel
A 4-marker iron panel measuring serum iron, TIBC, ferritin and transferrin saturation, for people who want more detail than a ferritin-only test to help interpret an existing low iron result.
Home or clinic omega-3:6 ratio test with a long wait
This test measures your Omega 3 and Omega 6 levels and works out the ratio between them from a blood sample. It suits people who want to check their dietary fat balance, particularly ahead of or during lifestyle or supplement changes.
£95 cheaper than Better2Know's clinic calcium test
A single finger-prick blood test that measures your calcium level, useful if you have symptoms of high or low calcium or want a quick check on your dietary intake.
Priced above the median for active B12 tests we track
A single-marker blood test measuring active vitamin B12, suited to people at risk of deficiency, including vegetarians and vegans.
20-marker pernicious anaemia panel, 17-day turnaround
A 20-marker blood panel checking for pernicious anaemia, combining intrinsic factor antibodies, iron and B12 status with a full blood count. Suits people already diagnosed with a B12 deficiency.
Clinic-only antibody test priced 16% below typical
A blood test checking for gastric parietal cell antibodies, often requested when vitamin B12 is low, to help look into a possible autoimmune cause. It suits people whose B12 results have already raised a question about absorption.
Seven-marker profile built around the Walsh Protocol
This profile checks seven nutrient markers, including active B12, folate, ferritin, copper, zinc and vitamin D, along with caeruloplasmin. It is aimed at people following the Walsh Protocol, an approach used by some nutritional specialists that links nutrient status to mental health.
Pricier and narrower than Medichecks' own 3-marker test
This test measures active vitamin B12 and folate, two nutrients involved in energy, brain function and red blood cell production. It suits people who want to check both markers together, such as vegans, vegetarians or those with absorption issues.
At-home vitamin D test, close to the group median
An at-home blood test measuring vitamin D levels, relevant for anyone with low sun exposure, a vegan diet, or a dairy allergy who wants to check for deficiency.
Niacin check that costs more than the category average
This test measures vitamin B3 (niacin), a nutrient involved in converting food into energy, skin health and the nervous system. It suits people who want to check for a possible niacin deficiency as part of monitoring their nutrition.
At-home B12 test priced right at the group median
An at-home blood test measuring vitamin B12 levels, useful for vegans, vegetarians and anyone with symptoms of low energy or tiredness that could point to a deficiency.
