SpectraCell® Micronutrient Analysis

A deeper look at vitamin, mineral, antioxidant, and metabolic nutrient sufficiency.

Nutrients power energy production, immune function, cognition, recovery, and healthy aging. When symptoms persist—fatigue, brain fog, frequent illness, slow recovery, muscle cramps, or stubborn inflammation—micronutrient insufficiency may be one contributor. SpectraCell describes its Micronutrient Test as an assessment of functional nutrient status (including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, and fatty acids) to help guide more targeted nutrition and supplementation decisions.

Why micronutrients matter

Vitamins and minerals play essential roles in metabolism and cellular function. Deficiencies can contribute to fatigue, neurologic symptoms, anemia, bone health concerns, and immune dysfunction—depending on the nutrient and severity.

Overview

What is SpectraCell Micronutrient Analysis?

SpectraCell describes its micronutrient testing as a functional assessment intended to identify insufficiencies across a broad range of nutrients (including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other metabolic nutrients). The goal is to help clinicians build a more personalized nutrition and supplementation plan—especially for patients whose symptoms persist despite “healthy” habits.

Important to know:

No single lab test can diagnose every cause of fatigue or chronic symptoms. Micronutrient testing is best used alongside your medical history, diet, medications, and other relevant labs. If you have concerning symptoms (chest pain, severe shortness of breath, fainting, black stools, rapid unintentional weight loss), seek urgent evaluation.

When patients often consider micronutrient testing

  • Persistent fatigue or low stamina
  • “Brain fog,” trouble concentrating, low mood
  • Frequent illness or slow recovery
  • Muscle cramps, weakness, poor exercise tolerance
  • Restricted diets, malabsorption concerns, or chronic GI symptoms
  • Long-term medication use that may affect nutrient status (clinician-reviewed)
We evaluate the full clinical picture—symptoms, diet, lifestyle, and standard labs—before making recommendations.

What a personalized plan may include

  • Food-first strategy (protein, minerals, fiber, anti-inflammatory patterns)
  • Targeted supplementation (only where indicated)
  • Repeat testing when clinically appropriate to track response
  • Addressing contributors (sleep, stress physiology, gut health, hormone balance)
  • Coordinating with other testing you may be doing (cardiometabolic, inflammatory, toxicity, etc.)
We aim for the simplest effective plan—precise, not overwhelming.

Why “functional” status can be helpful

Standard blood tests can detect many deficiencies, but symptoms don’t always map neatly to one value. In clinical practice, nutrient status is best interpreted through multiple lenses: diet patterns, digestive health, medications, lifestyle demands, and objective labs. The NIH Office of Dietary Supplements provides evidence-based guidance for individual nutrients and helps clarify where supplementation is supported—and where it isn’t.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers supported by trusted medical and government sources.

Micronutrients include vitamins and minerals required in small amounts that are essential for normal metabolism, energy production, immune function, and many cellular processes. Source: NIH Office of Dietary Supplements
Yes. Certain deficiencies can contribute to fatigue. For example, iron deficiency can lead to anemia, which commonly causes tiredness and reduced exercise tolerance. Source: NHLBI (NIH) – Anemia
Not necessarily. Many people can meet nutrient needs through diet, but some individuals may benefit from targeted supplementation based on diet patterns, life stage, medical conditions, and labs. Evidence-based guidance varies by nutrient. Source: NIH Office of Dietary Supplements
Vitamin D supports calcium absorption and bone health and plays other roles in the body. Whether supplementation is needed depends on individual risk factors and lab values. Source: NIH ODS – Vitamin D
We interpret results alongside your symptoms, diet, medications, and standard labs, then build a focused plan—often emphasizing food-first strategies and targeted supplementation only where appropriate. We track outcomes and simplify over time. Helpful references for nutrient guidance: NIH ODS Fact Sheets
