Vitamin D Test FAQs

What makes rapid tests "rapid"?

Rapid tests earn their moniker by providing human-legible results within minutes. With paper-based lateral flow technology that doesn't require complex laboratory equipment or processing, rapid tests deliver results in 1-20 minutes. Colloidal gold nanoparticle chemistry makes their test lines a visible purple-red to the human eye.

Are the rapid tests you sell approved and registered by Health Canada?

Yes! Health Canada requires prior registration, regulatory review, and approval for medical devices marketed in Canada. Rapid tests are a kind of medical device (Class II, III, or IV), and approved tests are registered in the Medical Devices Active Licence List (MDALL). As a Canadian company serving the Canadian market, we are required to sell authentic licenced tests from approved manufacturers who have gone through Health Canada’s rigorous registration process.

Can I get a rapid test without a provider requisition?

Yes! No requisitions are required for any of the rapid tests we sell, since they are approved by Health Canada specifically for usage by individuals.

What could 25-OHD deficiency or insufficiency mean for my health?

Low Vitamin D levels may be associated with:

Bone weakness and increased fracture risk

Muscle weakness

Increased risk of falls in elderly

Impaired immune function

Mood changes

Why would I choose a rapid test to check my Vitamin D levels?

Rapid tests for Vitamin D provide accurate results in minutes, with the convenience of testing wherever you are. A lower cost per test means that you get more tests for less money.

Since blood levels of 25-OHD take 3 months to respond to changing supplementation levels, it’s a good idea to at least confirm that you’re getting enough. With lab tests 5-10x the price of rapid tests, it makes more sense to buy two (or three, or ten) rapid tests, so you can test yourself again after you adjust your supplements. With the leftover savings, you can pay for Vitamin D pills and still spend under $65.
