Wondering if you’re getting enough vitamin D?

Skip the needles and get clear answers with our Vitamin D Metabolism Test,  a convenient, pain-free at-home DNA test that helps you understand how well your body processes vitamin D.

Unlike standard blood tests that only show your current vitamin D levels, this test gives you the full picture by analysing your genetic ability to absorb, metabolise, and utilise vitamin D.

Whether you’re always covering up, rarely see the sun, or simply want to be proactive about your bone and immune health — this test is for you.

What is the vitamin D metabolism test?

The Vitamin D Metabolism Test is a non-invasive DNA test that analyses how your body processes and utilises vitamin D based on your unique genetic profile. Rather than measuring your current vitamin D levels, this test looks at specific genetic markers to determine how efficiently your body absorbs, transports, and activates vitamin D. It helps identify whether you have a genetic tendency to struggle with maintaining adequate vitamin D levels, offering insights that can guide personalised decisions around supplementation, diet, and lifestyle.

Why test your vitamin D metabolism?

Many people assume that taking supplements or getting a bit of sun is enough, but your genetics play a huge role in how well your body actually uses vitamin D. Knowing your genetic profile can help you:

•  Understand if you’re at greater risk of vitamin D deficiency

•  Learn whether your body processes supplements efficiently

•  Take targeted action based on your own metabolism, not guesswork

•  Prevent long-term issues linked to deficiency like osteoporosis, low immunity, muscle weakness, and chronic fatigue

What will you find in your Vitamin D Metabolism report?

Your personalised Vitamin D Metabolism report provides a comprehensive breakdown of your genetic predisposition to vitamin D deficiency and how efficiently your body absorbs and processes this essential nutrient. It’s designed to give you and your healthcare provider a clear picture of your unique needs and potential health risks.

Inside your report, you’ll receive a detailed explanation of the test performed, along with easy-to-understand recommendations tailored to your genetic profile. A helpful summary table allows for a quick overview of the metabolic areas analysed, highlighting your results at a glance using an intuitive colour-coded system: green for favourable, orange for mildly unfavourable, and red for more concerning genetic variants.

The report also includes a section backed by scientific references, helping you better understand the reasoning behind the test and the credibility of the results. Please note that while this test provides valuable insight into your vitamin D metabolism, it is not a medical diagnosis. It’s a powerful tool to support informed decisions about your health and should be used in collaboration with your healthcare provider.

Who should take the Vitamin D Test?

This test is ideal for individuals with symptoms of deficiency and can’t  absorb vitamin D from sunlight. Also people who avoid sun exposure, have darker skin tones, follow vegan or vegetarian diets, or have medical conditions that affect nutrient absorption. It’s also useful if you’ve been taking supplements but your levels remain low, as it reveals genetic factors behind your metabolism.

You may benefit from this test if you:

•  Rarely get direct sunlight (due to climate, lifestyle, sunscreen use, or clothing)

•  Have darker skin, which reduces the body’s natural vitamin D production

•  Are over 65, vegan/vegetarian, or have undergone weight-loss surgery

•  Have conditions like Crohn’s, coeliac disease, or liver issues

•  Take medications that interfere with vitamin D levels

•  Have experienced symptoms like fatigue, low mood, weak muscles, or frequent illness

Why is the Vitamin D Metabolism Test so important?

Vitamin D plays a crucial role in supporting your overall health. It helps strengthen bones and teeth, regulate calcium and phosphorus levels, boost immune function, and support muscle strength and coordination. It also promotes mood balance and cognitive health, while reducing inflammation and supporting a healthy heart. Despite its importance, many people are still deficient in vitamin D — even those who eat well or take supplements — often due to limited sun exposure, lifestyle habits, or genetic factors that affect how the body processes this essential nutrient.

Saliva sample collection for the vitamin D Test

Order your kit online, and we’ll ship it straight to your door along with easy-to-follow instructions. Once you receive your kit, use the swab provided to gently collect a DNA sample from the inside of your cheek. After collecting your sample, simply place it in the prepaid envelope included in your kit and send it back to our laboratory. You’ll then receive your results via email within 7 to 10 working days from the time your sample arrives at the lab.

What you’ll receive:

A full DNA analysis report showing your vitamin D metabolism profile

Clear explanations of your genetic markers related to vitamin D processing

Easy-to-follow recommendations based on your results

Peace of mind, with no needles or clinic visits needed

What makes this Vitamin D Metabolism Test different?

Traditional blood tests only show your current vitamin D levels, our EasyDNA Vitamin D Metabolism DNA Test uses a simple buccal (cheek) swab to provide long-term insights into how your body is genetically programmed to absorb, transport, and process vitamin D.

•  Non-invasive buccal swab – No needles, no blood. Just a quick and easy cheek swab you can do at home.

•  Fast turnaround – Your results will be ready in just 7 to 10 working days after your sample reaches the lab.

•  Science-backed insights – Results include information on how your genetics impact vitamin D absorption and usage.

•  Personal empowerment – Use the insights to make better decisions about supplementation, diet, and lifestyle.

FAQs

Yes, you can still be deficient despite taking supplements. Your genes may affect how your body absorbs and utilises vitamin D. The Vitamin D Metabolism Test helps uncover if your genetic makeup limits your ability to maintain optimal vitamin D levels, even with supplementation or sun exposure..

Yes, vitamin D has a significant influence on metabolism. It helps regulate calcium and phosphate balance, both of which are vital for healthy bones, but it also plays a broader role in supporting metabolic processes. Vitamin D is involved in insulin sensitivity, fat storage, and inflammation control — all of which are key factors in conditions such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. Low vitamin D levels have been linked to various metabolic disorders, highlighting its importance in maintaining overall metabolic health.
