Vitamin E Blood Test

* This is not a home test kit. You will need to visit a local lab for testing.

Use:

Evaluate vitamin E deficiency in hemolytic disease in premature infants, and neuromuscular disease in infants (and adults) with chronic cholestasis, evaluate patients on long-term parenteral nutrition, patients with malignancy or malabsorption (eg, patients with cystic fibrosis, cases of intestinal bypass surgery), investigate brown-bowel syndrome.Vitamin E (a-tocopherol) is an antioxidant so widely distributed in foodstuffs that deficiency is very difficult to produce in human beings taking anything like an abnormal diet.
