Comprehensive Micronutrient Testing

Comprehensive white blood cell nutrient panel

Many medical conditions and diseases find their beginnings in nutritional imbalances. Nutrient deficiencies can even be found in people who take a multivitamin regularly because the issue can be related to your body’s ability to properly absorb nutrients from your food and supplements.

Nutrient testing is an important tool in determining what our bodies are missing in order to function optimally and prevent disease. Up until recently, nutritional deficiencies have been difficult to accurately measure and testing methods measured nutrient levels in a fixed serum blood sample.

Because nutrients are stored and used in many different ways within the body, nutrient deficiencies were often undetected. Zentai Wellness Centre offers a micronutrient test that measures nutrient levels within white blood cells, which better represent micronutrient levels within the body.

What micronutrients does the Comprehensive Nutritional Panel quantify?

Vitamin K2

How much does the test cost?
The Comprehensive Nutritional Panel is $495+ HST.

How do I do the test?
You simply take the requisition form that we will give you to a LifeLab location most convenient for you and they will obtain an non-fasting blood sample which is then sent off for analysis. The results take approximately 2-3 weeks to process due to the nature of working with white blood cells.
