Is homocysteine 26 high?


Healing with compassion, caring with purpose.
Homocysteine 26μmol/L is generally relatively high.
Homocysteine levels may be affected by diet, such as fat, animal viscera and high cholesterol diet, usually recommended to check under fasting conditions. The normal range of homocysteine under fasting conditions is generally 5-15μmol/L, mainly used for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and other diseases screening. However, 26μmol/L is slightly higher than the normal value, suggesting that the risk of suffering from the above organic diseases is higher, and may also be related to drug abuse, kidney disease, psoriasis and other factors, belonging to abnormal performance, so homocysteine is generally higher at 26μmol/L.
