<h2>Why Nutritional Testing is important?</h2>

<p>Nutrients are important for a healthy body and mind. A nutrient rich diet equips the body to fight against disease and work well. Lack of nutrients can impact the health of a person, severely at times and cause trouble in normal day to day functioning. Usually, people might experience symptoms of poor nutrition but get used to them and adapt themselves; this might lead to a further worsening of the condition. Hence, getting a Nutrition test in Gurgaon is advisable as it can help in assessing which nutrients you lack and thus assist in creating a proper treatment plan. Some of the most common nutritional deficiencies are Iron, vitamin B, vitamin D, vitamin C, etc. Each of these deficiencies has some specific symptoms; however, the general symptoms listed above might also be present.</p>

<p>In most cases, problems caused by nutritional deficiencies are resolved once the deficiency is addressed. However, in some cases, there may be long-lasting damage. This generally happens in cases where the deficiency is severe and long term. Nutritional deficiencies, especially among children, can cause long term, harmful effects. Hence, it is important that if you notice any symptoms in your child then you book a nutritional deficiency test.</p>
