+ 7 I believe in blood work for Vitamins as much or more than Anabolics.

I see many posting blood work for anabolics but not many or any from what I’ve seen. I personally feel a full vitamin blood panel is worth it’s weight in gold. Here are my numbers. I don’t claim to be a doctor so I need to go to my doc for translation.

AMIGA500Vitamins are really important but everything in moderation.Thanks for interesting topic
Your welcome. It’s the least I can do. You all have taught me so much about so many different topics.
Good reminder, I had a trace mineral panel done awhile back and a few tests were out of range.
Hey bud - This is great!
Thank You buddy! I just want to do my part contributing. Plus I know all you fitness geniuses will be able to identify and abnormalities. I go to the doc next week for his interpretation.
Do you have a date for the MRI with contrast yet?
8/31 is my date for the specialist. Not sure of the MRI date yet
I'm a vitamin freak so this panel is a good thing to me. Thanks for posting
Thanks D! Feel free to critique please.
So I'm no Dietitian by any means now. I don't know what brand vitamins you're taking but everything in regards to vitamin levels are averaging mid range so that's good with the exception of your ferritan, which are your Iron levels. Men don't need an abundance of iron in our blood as much as a woman would as a result of menstruation. So keep that at mid range level. Also you might want to up vitamin d3 a bit. Vitamin d3 acts like more of a hormone than an actual vitamin. Multi benefits. B vitamins are all water soluble and essential for energy so load up on them, as opposed to vitamin A, which is fat soluable and toxic to liver in extreme amounts so be careful with that one. Last thing, do not get those rock hard tablet vitamins, get a brand that will dissolve and disperse freely in a reasonable time. Crush them if need be. I remember talking to a few nutritionists who basically stated that alot of rock hard vit tabs aren't completely digested and end up just sitting in the colon which I already figured. Crazy stuff man.
Thanks D for the input. I always been D3 deficient. I was taking 10000iu a day but stopped for a while. I’m not sure about the ferritin. Maybe too much red meat or to much in my supplements combined. I will look into that.
No problem, again I'm no Dietitian or Nutritionists. Sorry for that long summation
No it was great D. I enjoyed reading it. Thanks a lot bro.
Friend you need to do a better job of blacking out your info
delete and reupload or edit immediately
Thanks HL! I didn’t realize it was visible. Good looking out.
nice panel, I know you had to pay for that outta pocket as no insurance covers that much testing I imagine
100% paid by insurance. My insurance has no copay. Pays 100% and 100% for ER visits. I got this panel on my own. I went to a wellness center and told them I wanted a full vitamin panel and they gave me the script. Labcorp took like 12 tubes of blood.
Must be nice. Be grateful because that is not the norm.
I been there before. I have a great job and 100% paid insurance and no referrals needed.
Thanks brother!
