About This Test

Reason to Check It

"Zinc has been known to improve your immune system. This test evaluates your zinc levels since the body does not store this important mineral. Interestingly, low levels of zinc have been associated with altered taste and smell." - Dr. Alan Hopkins

Test Preparation

  • Fasting (Overnight) required for 10-12 hours


Please Note: We recommend overnight fasting and an early morning blood draw for all tests, even if no special preparation is required. Remember, it is OK to drink plenty of water. Drinking water helps hydrate you and makes it easier for the phlebotomist to obtain your blood sample.
