About this test

This panel goes beyond a single vitamin check, covering active B12, vitamin D, ferritin, magnesium and corrected calcium alongside a full blood count and a cholesterol reading. Together these markers are commonly used to investigate fatigue, weak bones or general nutritional status, though the test cannot tell you why any deficiency exists.

We do not have a defined set of direct competitors for this exact combination of markers, so we cannot say how it compares against named alternatives. Against the wider set of 21 similarly sized vitamin tests we track, its 11 markers place it in the 89th percentile for depth, and its £120 price is 35% above the £89 median for tests of this size.

The clinical depth score is strong given the marker count relative to similar vitamin tests, though value for money is weaker because of the premium over that broader median. Collection is flexible across four methods, and results come with a doctor review within 2 days.

Who is it for?

This suits you if you want a broad nutritional and blood count check in one test rather than testing individual vitamins separately. If you only need to check one or two specific markers, such as vitamin D or B12 alone, Forth's single-marker tests for those nutrients cost significantly less.

How it works

Collect your sample with an at-home finger-prick kit, Forth's AutoDraw device, a home nurse visit, or a venous draw at a partner clinic. The lab analyses all 11 markers, including active B12, vitamin D, ferritin and a full blood count, and a doctor reviews your results. Results are typically available within 2 days.

Pros & cons

Pros

  • Covers 11 markers across vitamins, minerals, full blood count and cholesterol in one test.
  • Places in the 89th percentile for marker count among similarly sized vitamin tests we track.
  • Results reviewed by a doctor, typically within 2 days.
  • Can be collected via finger-prick, AutoDraw, nurse visit or clinic draw.

Cons

  • £120 is 35% above the £89 median for similarly sized vitamin tests we track.
  • No named direct competitor to benchmark this exact combination of markers against.
  • If you only need one marker, such as vitamin D or B12, Forth's single-marker tests cost far less.
