Energy and fatigue tests and supplements

Always tired or low on energy? Explore iron, B12, vitamin D and thyroid tests, or speak with a practitioner about where to start.

Energy and fatigue: comparing your options

Persistent tiredness is a reason to look at your circumstances, rather than assume that one supplement or test will provide the answer. This hub brings related options together so you can compare what is actually included.

What to compare

Compare the named measurements, sample type and preparation on each test page. Panels with similar names may have different contents. Bring any previous results and a list of medicines and supplements to a practitioner discussion.

Questions before you order

Should I choose a large panel or an individual test?

Start with the question you want to discuss. A larger panel contains more measurements, but that does not automatically make it more appropriate. A practitioner can help you review what has already been checked.

How do I compare energy-related supplements?

Compare the ingredient forms, amount per serving, pack size and directions on the individual listing. Products grouped under energy are not interchangeable, and a category label is not a recommendation for your symptoms.
