Homocysteine 8μmol/L usually indicates that the value of this item is within the normal value, which is a normal result.
Homocysteine refers to sulfur-containing amino acids produced by cysteine and methionine metabolism. Patients do not eat red meat, white meat, high cholesterol foods before measurement, and the normal range of measurement results is usually 5-15μmol/L. 8μmol/L is within the normal range, so it is generally normal.
If homocysteine is found to exceed 15μmol/L, it indicates that homocysteine content in the body is too high, which is an abnormal condition. It is necessary to seek medical help in time to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
