Test Details

Phosphorus is a vital mineral involved in bone and tooth formation and forms part of phosphate compounds essential for energy (ATP) in the body. It also helps regulate blood pH, cellular signaling, and the structure of DNA and RNA. Phosphorus deficiency can lead to weak bones and poor appetite, while excess may cause kidney problems and mineral imbalances.
