NEW Iron (Ferritin) Test Kit + Free Iron Oral Spray

Details

If you’re feeling tired or fatigued, then you may not be supplying your body with enough iron. Iron is essential in the production of red blood cell formation and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, the normal functioning of the immune system and normal cognitive function.

This test checks your ferritin (stored iron) levels which is the recommended marker to test for iron deficiency.

Your results will be made available through your own personal online dashboard and a member of the BetterYou team will follow up with your bespoke supplementation plan within 2 working days.

Specifications

Importance of checking your iron levels

Our iron (ferritin) test enables you to quickly identify the current iron levels within your body and gives you a clear insight into any risk of iron deficiency/anaemia or iron overload (haemochromatosis).

By knowing your results and getting our bespoke supplementation plan, you can make the necessary lifestyle modifications to ensure your levels remain optimal and track your levels over time using our online portal.

Who needs it

While the test is suitable for everyone over 18 and testing for iron is advised if you’re concerned you’re not getting enough, there are groups of people who may be more susceptible to iron deficiency and should strongly consider getting themselves tested. These include:

• Those with malabsorption issues
• Women who have heavy periods
• Athletes
• Vegetarians and Vegans
