I recently got my full body blood tests back, and while most results seem alright, my Vitamin D level is at 6 and Vitamin B12 is at 160. I don't really have the typical symptoms associated with these deficiencies, but I'm kind of concerned and want to address them. Any advice on what I should do?

For Vitamin D deficiency, you can consider taking Vitamin D supplements such as "Caltrate" or "Nature Made Vitamin D3". For Vitamin B12 deficiency, you can consider taking Vitamin B12 supplements such as "Nature Made Vitamin B12" or "Solgar Methylcobalamin". It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for proper dosage and duration of supplementation.

I'm looking at these numbers on my health report and I'm a bit concerned. My GGT level is 130, which I know isnt great. I dont drink, and I try to keep a fairly healthy lifestyle. I had a baby about a year ago and recently recovered from Covid. Also, my T4 level is showing as 3.8, which seems low, and my Vitamin B12 is high. Could this be from the postnatal vitamins I was taking, which I've stopped now? Id really appreciate your advice on what could be going on.

GGT level of 130, as it may indicate liver stress or bile duct issues, potentially related to postpartum hormonal changes, COVID-19 infection, or other factors, and also review your thyroid function, as a low T4 level of 3.8 may suggest hypothyroidism, although your Vitamin B12 levels are high, likely due to postnatal supplements get s liver function tests, thyroid antibody tests, or an ultrasound, to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
