With the vitamin D rapid test, you can conveniently determine your vitamin D blood level from home. The blood sample is taken from the fingertip using a lancet. You will receive your test result within 10 minutes – without having to send anything to a laboratory.

Vitamin D – the sunshine vitamin

Vitamin D plays a role in cell division, among other things, and contributes to a healthy immune system and the maintenance of normal bones. Our body can produce the vitamin itself – provided there is sufficient exposure to sunlight. However, due to our modern lifestyle, many of us no longer spend enough time in the sun. This can reduce the body's own production of the sunshine vitamin.

Determine your vitamin D level yourself

With the vitamin D self-test, you can conveniently check your vitamin D level from home. By comparing it with a color scale, you can get an impression of whether you are sufficiently supplied with vitamin D or whether there is an insufficient supply, a deficiency, or possibly even an excess.

How the test works

The vitamin D level in the blood is determined using an immunoassay test procedure. The way it works is similar to well-known rapid antigen tests for home use: The sample is mixed with a buffer and migrates through the test cassette. The higher the concentration of vitamin D, the weaker the color intensity on the test line. A stronger band therefore indicates a lower vitamin D level.

The evaluation is carried out by comparing it with the included color reference. This allows you to estimate whether your vitamin D level is below 10 ng/ml, between 10 and 30 ng/ml, or between 30 and 100 ng/ml.
