Vegetarian Test – Complete Assessment of Essential Nutrients

THE Lab in the Box Vegetarian Test was developed for those who follow plant-based diets, analyzing the 5 most critical nutrients that may be in deficit: Vitamin B12, Iron (Ferritin and Transferrin), Folic Acid, and Magnesium . Ensure your diet provides everything your body needs for energy, immunity, and neurological health.

🔹 Focus on Vegetarian/Vegan Needs:

  • Vitamin B12 (found only in animal foods)
  • Non-heme iron (more difficult to absorb from plant sources)
  • Magnesium (essential mineral often deficient)

🔹 Advantages:

  • Home collection (simple and painless)
  • Results in 24-48h by email
  • Personalized recommendations


Evaluated Parameters

Nutrient Importance for Vegetarians Ideal Values
Vitamin B12 Vital for nerves and red blood cells (absent in plants) > 300 pg/mL
Ferritin Iron stores (common deficiency without red meat) Men: 30-400 ng/mL
Women: 15-150 ng/mL
Transferrin Shows how iron is transported (high = sign of deficit) 200-360 mg/dL
Folic Acid Crucial for vegan pregnancy and cellular health > 3.0 ng/mL
Magnesium Involved in 300+ enzymatic reactions (nuts and seeds are good sources) 1.8-2.6 mg/dL

  • Tingling in hands/feet (B12)
  • Muscle cramps (magnesium)

Why This Test?

  • Prevents anemia:
    • B12 + Folic Acid → Prevent megaloblastic anemia
    • Ferritin → Prevents iron deficiency anemia

  • Optimizes the diet:

    • Identify if you need supplementation B12 (mandatory for vegans)

    • Reveals whether food combinations improve absorption (e.g., vitamin C + vegetable iron)

Practical Example:
Result with B12 = 180 pg/mL (low) → Need for supplementation or fortified foods.

Notice:
Untreated B12 deficiency can cause permanent neurological damage. Consult a nutritionist for personalized guidance.
