Prima – Vitamin D Test (1 Test)
Prima – Vitamin D test
Vitamin D refers to a group of fat-soluble secosteroids responsible for increasing intestinal absorption of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphate and zinc. Vitamin D is produced by skin exposed to ultraviolet B radiation or obtained from dietary sources, including supplements. Average daily vitamin D intake in the population and current dietary reference intake values are often inadequate to maintain optimal vitamin D levels. Virtually every cell in our body has receptors for Vitamin D, meaning that they all require “sufficient” level of Vitamin D for adequate functioning. Vitamin deficiency has been linked to various serious diseases: osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, pregnancy complications, diabetes, strokes, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, etc.

WHY – BENEFITS
VITAMIN D TEST helps understanding whether Vitamin D levels are sufficient, insufficient or deficient, allowing the person to take precautions in time.
TEST PRINCIPLE
VITAMIN D TEST is an immunochromatographic assay that, thanks to specific antibodies, is able to detect the levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in blood samples and to highlight its concentration thanks to the intensity of the test line (T) obtained.
How to take test
CONTENT: 1 hermetically sealed protective aluminum pouch containing: 1 device for the Vitamin D test and a desiccant bag; 1 transparent plastic bag containing a pipette for collecting blood; 1 vial with dropper containing the VITAMIN D TEST diluent required for 1 test; 2 pain-free, sterile landing devices for obtaining a blood sample; 1 Vitamin D colour card; 1 alcohol cleansing gauze and 1 instructions for use -leaflet.

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a non-specific marker mainly produced by the liver and used to diagnose bacterial diseases and inflammatory disorders. CRP is a very sensitive and fast appearing indicator which could therefore be helpful for deciding an antibiotic treatment.
C-REACTIVE PROTEIN TEST should be performed in case of acute infection symptoms such as feverishness, fever, headaches or weakness. -

Vitamin B-6 is a cofactor in numerous enzymatic reactions and is required for the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. It facilitates the conversion of amino acids from one to another as needed, and is necessary for normal synthesis of haemoglobin, as well as for normal function and production of red blood cells. B-6 plays an important role in regulating homocysteine metabolism in the body. Homocysteine, a by-product of the methionine cycle, is known to be destructive to bodily tissues, especially vascular structures. B-6 is also critical for the maintenance of a healthy nervous system.

Menopause is defined as the time when there has been no menstrual periods for 12 consecutive months and no other biological or physiological cause can be identified. The menopause is caused by a modification of the hormonal balance in woman’s body. This change arises generally when close to 45 years old. But true signs are observed around 55 years old. An irregular duration of periods is an early indication of the menopause beginning (peri-menopause). Menopause is the consequence of the end of ovary follicle life-cycle leading to increase of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) circulating level. Concentration of FSH increases du
ring menopause passing from values less than 20 mUI/mL up to approximately 80 mUI/mL. Checking the presence of high levels of FSH is a useful tool for verifying a potential ongoing menopause status. -
