Vitamin B12 and folate work as a pair to make DNA and healthy red blood cells and to keep your nervous system running. A shortage of either can cause fatigue and anemia, and checking both together is the standard way to sort out the cause.

When to Get Tested

Any time; no fasting is required. Checking both together is useful because B12 and folate deficiencies can look similar, and treating one without the other can mask a problem.

Understanding Your Results

Results post to your secure online account usually in 1–2 business days, each value with its normal range. Because B12 and folate deficiencies overlap in their effects, measuring both helps pinpoint the cause. Pair with a CBC to see whether anemia is present. Retest after supplementing to confirm improvement.
