If you’re feeling tired, low on energy or your memory is not as sharp as it used to be, you may need to check your vitamin B12 levels. Vital for the production of red blood cells, B12 supports the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and normal psychological function.
This test checks your active B12 levels as this is considered the more accurate way to measure your body’s access to available vitamin B12 and the best early indicator of a deficiency.
