Vitamin D plays an important role in overall health. It is essential for bone health, maintaining healthy energy levels, healthy thyroid function, immunity, hormones and pregnancy, and can play a role in many chronic health conditions.

Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland in the brain. It plays a crucial role in regulating the function of the thyroid gland, which controls metabolism, energy levels, and overall hormonal balance. High TSH usually indicates hypothyroidism and low TSH usually indicates hyperthyroidism.

Prolactin is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland. Elevated levels of prolactin can contribute to fatigue and low energy levels. Abnormal levels can lead to hormone imbalance, thyroid disease, and changes in your mood and sleep.

Cortisol is produced by the adrenal gland and is responsible for your stress response. It plays an important role in your energy levels, metabolism, and immunity.

Vitamin B12 levels measure the amount of cobalamin in your blood, which is essential for nerve function, red blood cell production, and DNA synthesis. Low levels may indicate a deficiency due to poor absorption, dietary insufficiency, or underlying health conditions, and can lead to fatigue, neurological issues, or anemia if left untreated.
