DESCRIPTION

This test measures levels of vitamins B1, B2 and B6.

These are common deficiencies and I do not often do this test because I recommend taking B vitamins routinely. However some people do not believe me and want to do the test anyway. It is a good way of persuading people to take supplements regularly!
