Individual tests

Protein is an essential part of cells and tissue. There are two main classes of protein called albumin and globulin. Albumin helps prevent fluid from leaking out of blood vessels, while globulins are important for your immune system. High protein levels can place a burden on your kidneys, liver, and bones, as well as potentially increase your risk of heart disease and cancer. A lack of protein can produce several symptoms, including illness, increased infections, and reduced muscle mass.
There are two major proteins in the blood. Albumin helps keep blood from leaking out of blood vessels and moves other important substances throughout the body, while globulins help fight infection and move nutrients throughout the body. The A/G ratio compares the amount of albumin in your blood to the amount of globulin. This test helps diagnose kidney disease, liver disease, or nutritional problems.
Vitamin B12 is essential in nervous system function and DNA and red blood cell production. Vitamin B12 tests help detect anemia with larger-than-normal red blood cells or problems with the nervous system, such as emotional changes or weakness.
Zinc is an important trace element that people need to stay healthy. Of the trace elements, ZInc is second only to iron in its concentration in the body. It is needed for the body's defensive (immune) system to work properly, for cell division, cell growth, wound healing, and the breakdown of carbohydrates.
