Transcobalamin
Transcobalamin ist ein Protein, das Vitamin B12 im Blut transportiert und es den Zellen zur Verfügung stellt. Ein Mangel oder eine Dysfunktion kann zu einer verminderten Vitamin B12-Versorgung der Zellen führen, was verschiedene gesundheitliche Probleme verursachen kann.
25-OH-Vitamin-D3
Der Biomarker 25-OH-Vitamin D ist ein wichtiger Indikator für den Vitamin-D-Status im Körper. Ein Mangel an diesem Vitamin kann zu einer Vielzahl von gesundheitlichen Problemen führen, wie z.B. Osteoporose, Muskelschwäche und erhöhtem Infektionsrisiko. Daher ist es wichtig, den 25-OH-Vitamin D-Spiegel regelmäßig zu überprüfen und gegebenenfalls durch Nahrungsergänzungsmittel oder Sonnenlicht zu optimieren.
Frequently asked questions about Getting Through the Winter Check
Frequently asked questions about Getting Through the Winter Check

I got a voucher by chance and didn't know what to think of it at first. But then I noticed how easy it is to incorporate the test into everyday life. I've already given two vouchers to friends - they were also thrilled!
