Nutrients & Sensitivities

Deficiencies common in South Asian diets, rarely screened by default

Certain nutrient gaps appear at higher rates in South Asian populations and affect energy, lab accuracy, and long-term health.

B12 and iron deficiency

Vitamin B12 and iron deficiency occur at higher rates in South Asian populations, particularly with vegetarian dietary patterns, and can affect energy levels and the accuracy of HbA1c readings.

Vitamin D deficiency

Vitamin D deficiency is widespread across South Asian populations, linked to both dietary patterns and skin pigmentation's effect on synthesis, with downstream effects on bone and metabolic health.
