Is homocysteine 22 serious?

Homocysteine 22μmol/L is serious, but it needs to be judged according to the actual situation.

The normal value of homocysteine test is 5-15μmol/L, and homocysteine 22μmol/L indicates that the index is high. If the subject eats high cholesterol food before the test, it can lead to high homocysteine, which is a normal phenomenon and usually not serious. If it is caused by factors such as H-type hypertension and folic acid deficiency in the body, it is usually not serious and the prognosis is good.
