About this test

This whole blood test is for the fat soluble Vitamin E, which has a role as an antioxidant, immune function enhancement and blood clot risk reduction. As a fat soluble vitamin it is stored in the body so deficiency is rare - but on the other hand, overdose is possible with excessive supplementation.
