MiniCheck
MiniCheck is a first-line preventive biology assessment consisting of seven fundamental parameters. It enables the identification of possible harmful processes or deficiencies (macro- or micro-nutritional) that may become more serious over the years.

What is MiniCheck?
A deterioration of your well-being or general health can be explained by various dysfunctions, including oxidative stress, (micro) nutritional deficiencies, metabolic or hormonal imbalances, underlying inflammation, etc.
The seven parameters dosed in this panel allow us to evaluate the activity of the different mechanisms and to identify possible imbalances so that you can correct them with your practitioner.
What can we expect from MiniCheck?
MiniCheck can highlight the most common micro-nutritional deficiencies, low-grade inflammation or oxidative stress.
This check-up will enable you to specify the origin of possible symptoms and direct you towards potential further research.
This information will enable your practitioner to provide you with the best possible support and help you regain your well-being and vitality.
Who is MiniCheck profile for?
The MiniCheck is aimed at any health-conscious individual: man or woman, young or old, with or without specific symptoms.
Digestive or dermatological disorders, weight problems, chronic fatigue or unexplained stress may be linked to biological abnormalities.
Parameters
CRP Ultrasensitive, Homocysteine, Vitamin D, Zinc, Selenium, Oxidised LDL, Coenzyme Q10
More information on the MiniCheck
Why does MiniCheck include these parameters specifically?
MiniCheck brings together test parameters which enable the evaluation of basic dysfunction at the origin (or consequence) of most pathologies, symptomatic or not:
- Ultra-sensitive CRP, an elevation of which indicates a low-grade inflammation;
- Oxidised LDL, a reflection of the body’s level of oxidative stress;
- Vitamin D, a significant test parameter due to its multiple implications (bone/joint health as well as immunity, inflammation, mood, cognition, memory, etc.);
- Homocysteine, a major player in the methylation processes essential to cellular metabolism, the level of which may indicate a deficiency in vitamins B6, B9 or B12;
- Zinc, a cofactor of more than 300 enzymes and particularly involved in antioxidant defences and immune support;
- Selenium, an important player in antioxidant protection and the smooth synthesis of thyroid hormones;
- Coenzyme Q10, the body’s main antioxidant, a deficiency of which, though not uncommon, may be associated with muscular or neuropsychic disorders.
