About the Test

The Nutrient Deficiency Panel for Diuretic Patients measures the levels of the following 3 nutrients in your blood: calcium, magnesium, and potassium.

Identifying and addressing nutrient deficiencies are important steps toward better health. Your body does not produce most vitamins and minerals, so you must get them from food or supplements. How nutrients work in your body is influenced by more than just what you eat. These factors include genetics, age, health conditions, medications, metabolism, and how well your body absorbs nutrients.

Diuretics may make it difficult to get the nutrients your body needs. Having these nutrients tested helps you and your doctor decide if you need to supplement with additional vitamins or minerals.
