The Test Grade. The Reason Behind It.

Potentially useful for the right buyer, with meaningful evidence, coverage, transparency, access, cost, terms, or privacy tradeoffs to review.

A lower grade does not mean a panel is a bad personal fit. Your Fit Score can be higher when its purpose, price, sample, access, or support matches what you need.

Important limits and omissions

  • Exact offer page names no performing laboratory and no assay method; Quest Diagnostics appears only as brand metadata, not as a named testing route for this exact offer.

  • Provider-wide testing limits: tests are not available in NY, NJ, RI per provider policy; exact per-offer state list is not published.
  • Product-specific HSA and FSA eligibility or reimbursement is not confirmed; the provider documents payment-card acceptance only.
  • The provider privacy notice does not publish a fixed data-retention period.
  • Refunds are limited to the period before specimen submission, with no refund after 21 days. The money-back guarantee is conditional.

The full breakdown

Eight Dimensions.
One Named Result.

Open any row for the reasoning and evidence behind the named result.

Private MD Labs publishes a price of $619.00 USD for the Mineral Profile, RBCs. The service is self-pay; HSA and FSA are accepted but health insurance is not. Orders can be cancelled before samples are collected.

This panel measures essential minerals directly inside red blood cells, including magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, and other trace minerals critical for energy production, immune function, and overall health. Red blood cell testing reflects mineral status over the past 3 to 4 months, giving a more accurate picture of long-term mineral stores than standard serum tests.

The test is designed for people with unexplained fatigue, muscle weakness, poor exercise recovery, or suspected nutritional deficiencies. It is valuable for athletes optimizing performance, people with digestive issues affecting nutrient absorption, those on restrictive diets, and anyone taking medications that deplete minerals.

Private MD Labs provides results through an online patient portal with normal ranges explained in plain language, and US-licensed doctors are available for guidance. A panel-specific sample report was not published on the product page.

Private MD Labs identifies Quest Diagnostics as the performing laboratory for this test. The specific analytical method was not published on the product page. Quest Diagnostics operates CLIA-certified laboratories.

Ordering is online with a doctor's lab order created remotely; no doctor visit is needed. Samples are collected at one of about 4,000 Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp locations. Results are typically available within about 7 days via the patient portal, email, and SMS.

Private MD Labs states that it does not sell or share customer data. Results are delivered through a secure patient portal. The full privacy policy is published on the provider website; product-specific data retention details were not confirmed.

Private MD Labs publishes the test price, what is measured, and that Quest Diagnostics performs the testing. The company is LegitScript certified. Specific assay methods and performance characteristics were not published on the product page.

Reading the labels

What Has Been Checked?

Source collected

Evidence labels stay separate from the Test Grade. They show how much source support exists for the evaluation.

The balance

The Strengths. The Tradeoffs.

Strengths

  • Documents red blood cell magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, and additional trace minerals not fully enumerated.
  • Uses Quest collection with online result access and provider explanations.
  • Complete results are listed within 8 business days. Fast for 8 to 12 hours with water allowed, avoid mineral supplements for at least 24 hours, and continue prescription medications unless the clinician advises otherwise.
  • The exact offer page and purchase state document a current price of $619 USD.
  • Private MD Labs arranges the physician lab order, so buyers do not need to supply their own clinician.
  • Results are delivered digitally with report context documented for this exact offer.
  • The privacy notice allows account and data deletion requests, subject to regulatory, compliance, legal, and business retention requirements.

Watch-outs

  • Product-specific validation, precision, interference, and quality-control evidence are not fully established.
  • Abnormal results require clinical interpretation and do not establish a diagnosis from this panel alone.
  • Conflicting $774, $619 price signals prevent a confirmed current price.
  • HSA and FSA card acceptance is documented, but eligibility or reimbursement for this exact offer is not confirmed.
  • Refunds are permitted only before specimen submission and are unavailable after 21 days from payment. The 90-day money-back guarantee has first-customer, result, and test-category conditions.
  • The privacy notice permits defined laboratory and service-provider disclosures, deidentified research use with an opt-out, and third-party advertising unless the user opts out. No fixed retention period is published.
  • Private MD Labs does not offer services to residents of New York, New Jersey, or Rhode Island. Exact collection-site availability should be checked before purchase.
