What is VITAMIN D2?

This test measures Vitamin D2 (Ergocalciferol) levels in your blood. Vitamin D2 is primarily obtained from plant sources and fortified foods, and it's one of the two main forms of Vitamin D.

Why is this test important?

Measuring Vitamin D2 can help assess dietary intake and monitor supplementation, especially in individuals following vegetarian or vegan diets. It's often evaluated alongside Vitamin D3 for a comprehensive view of Vitamin D status.
