Electrolyte and trace element tests

Electrolyte and micronutrient tests are essential to determine the levels of these vital substances in the body. Electrolytes, such as sodium and potassium, regulate nerve and muscle function as well as hydration status. Meanwhile, trace elements such as iron and zinc are essential for a wide range of biochemical processes, including enzyme activity and immune system function. These tests help to identify deficiencies or excesses of minerals, providing doctors with a basis for recommending appropriate diets or supplements to maintain optimal health and prevent disease.
