Principle
Measure first, then decide
Without measured values, any treatment is guesswork. We turn the order around: the lab report first, then the decision.

What this analysis covers
What is measured
Five key vitamins from capillary blood, designed for children and adolescents.
The biomarker reference explains what lies behind the numbers: how values interact, which cofactors are involved and which biochemical processes take place in the body — for all values and areas, not only this analysis.
To the biomarker reference
For whom
The test is worth considering for tiredness, trouble concentrating at school, frequent infections or slowed growth in children and adolescents — complaints that often have a measurable cause in vitamin status.
What a single value means in your situation is something to discuss with a practitioner. It does not replace medical investigation.
How it works
Four steps from order to lab report.
- 01 Kit arrives Ships the next working day, postage paid to your door.
- 02 Take the blood A finger prick with a parent helping.
- 03 Send it back Post it in the prepaid envelope.
- 04 Get your report 7–21 days after the sample arrives.
Instructions
The key points first:
- Warm the child's hand well first, clean the finger with an alcohol swab and let it dry.
- With a parent helping, fill the tube with 600 µl of capillary blood.
- Close the tube firmly and post it in the prepaid envelope.
Please read the instructions carefully. Correct preparation matters, so that your sample – stool, urine, saliva or blood – can be evaluated cleanly and meaningfully.

Returning your sample
To make sure your sample arrives safely, please follow the rule for your country.
| Country | Postage | Shipping |
|---|---|---|
| Germany | Already paid | Return postage is prepaid, you do not need a stamp. |
| Austria | Stamp it yourself | To our address in Vienna, not to Germany. |
| Switzerland | Stamp it yourself | Separate return bag for Switzerland, sent to Germany. |
| Rest of Europe | Stamp it yourself | Sent to Germany. |
In short: for Germany everything is prepared. Austria: add a stamp, send to Vienna. Switzerland: add a stamp, special bag, send to Germany. Rest of Europe: add a stamp, send to Germany.

Reimbursement by private health insurance
If your private health insurance might reimburse you, this is how it works with us:
Many private insurers cover the cost in full or in part – some not at all. That depends entirely on your policy. We support you through the process as best we can.
