Vitamin B12 Blood Test
Understand your levels. Protect your energy, brain, and nerves.
🧠 Why Vitamin B12 matters
Vitamin B12 is essential for:
- Energy production
- Brain function & memory
- Healthy nerves
- Red blood cell formation
Low levels can quietly affect your body long before showing up on routine tests.
⚠️ Symptoms of low B12
You may benefit from testing if you experience:
- Fatigue or low energy
- Brain fog or poor concentration
- Tingling or numbness (hands/feet)
- Low mood
- Dizziness
- Pale skin
Sometimes, there are no obvious symptoms—which is why testing can be valuable.
🧪 What does the test measure?
Our blood test (£165) measures
Active B12 & Homocysteine
This advanced Vitamin B12 assessment measures both Active B12 (the biologically usable form of B12) and Homocysteine, a functional marker linked to B12 metabolism.
It may help identify early or functional Vitamin B12 deficiency, even when standard B12 levels appear “normal”.
Suitable for individuals experiencing fatigue, brain fog, low energy, tingling sensations, poor concentration or
📊 Understanding your B12 levels
| Level (ng/L) | What it means |
|---|---|
| <200 | Likely deficiency |
| 200–350 | Borderline – symptoms possible |
| 350–900 | Generally adequate |
| >900 | Usually due to supplementation |
⚖️ Important: “Normal” doesn’t always mean optimal
Some people experience symptoms even when their B12 sits in the lower end of the normal range.
That’s because:
- The test measures total B12, not just the active form
- Your body may not be using B12 efficiently
🔬 When do we recommend further testing?
If your level is borderline or symptoms are present, we may suggest:
- Active B12 (Holotranscobalamin) – the usable form
- Homocysteine – rises when B12 is insufficient
- Methylmalonic Acid (MMA) – more specific marker
This gives a more accurate picture of what’s happening at a cellular level.
🥗 Who is at higher risk of low B12?
- Vegetarians or vegans
- Age over 50
- Digestive issues (e.g. IBS, low stomach acid)
- Long-term use of acid-reducing medication (e.g. Omeprazole)
- Diabetes medication (e.g. Metformin)
💉 What happens if levels are low?
Depending on your results, we may recommend:
- Oral or sublingual supplements
- Vitamin B12 injections
- Dietary advice
- Follow-up testing
