Beta Carotene Blood Test in Springfield, Illinois

Same day and Affordable Beta Carotene Blood Test, Locations Nationwide

Concerned you or someone you know may be deficient in Vitamin A? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Beta Carotene Blood Test in Springfield, IL. This test measures the level of beta carotene in the blood. Beta Carotene is an antioxidant that breaks down to become Vitamin A (retinol). Vitamin A contributes to a number of body functions including vision, bone strength, immune system, skin and cognitive function. There are a number of foods that provide good sources of beta carotene such as leafy greens, peppers, carrots, peas, broccoli, sweet potatoes, cantaloupe and apricots. Lack of beta carotene can lead to vitamin A deficiency. Abnormally low levels of beta carotene can be due to a person's diet or health complications such as digestive problems, malabsorption disorders, liver disease, Celiac Disease, Crohn's Disease or cystic fibrosis. Over supplementing with Beta Carotene can lead to health risks including an increased likelihood of developing certain types of cancer, diarrhea, nausea, headaches and increased possibility of birth defects if taken during pregnancy.           

This test is typically ordered when someone has symptoms of vitamin A deficiency.  It may be ordered along with or as a followup to a Vitamin A Blood Test.
