Request to Reinstate Removed Micronutrient Markers + Add Key Blood Markers
J
Jean-Felix Turcotte
I’d like to share some feedback and recommendations regarding Vibrant’s blood marker offerings. While there hasn’t been a delay in this case, I’d love to see a few changes that would make the platform even more effective for practitioners and clients.
Earlier this year, several important individual micronutrient markers were removed, including:
Retinol (Vitamin A), Vit E, Vitamin K
B-Vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6 etc)
Minerals - RBC Magnesium, Selenium, Zinc, Copper, Manganese, Molybdenum etc
RBC Omega
These were very helpful when ordering selectively without having to run a full micronutrients panel. Bringing back the ability to order them individually would be greatly appreciated.
Additionally, I’d love to see the following blood markers added to the catalog or made available a la carte:
- Ceruloplasmin
- Whole Blood Histamine
- Vitamin D 1,25(OH)
- C-Peptide, GlycoMark (bring back fructosamine)
- MMP-9, Neopterin, C4a, TGF-β1, MSH
- Blood Mold IgG Antibody Panel
These markers are highly valuable in clinical decision-making, especially when working with clients dealing with methylation issues, glucose dysregulation, inflammation, mold-related illness, and oxidative stress.
Adding or reinstating these options would increase flexibility, accessibility, and help practitioners better serve clients without unnecessary testing costs.
Thank you for considering this!
