Ever wondered why doctors insist on an empty stomach before a blood test? 🧪
Eating or drinking right before certain tests (like Blood Sugar, Lipid Profile, or Liver Function) can alter your results, leading to inaccurate readings. Fasting ensures your baseline levels are measured accurately so your doctor gets the true picture of your health.
Got a test scheduled? Here’s the rule of thumb:
Fast for 8–12 hours prior to your sample collection (as advised by your doctor).
Plain water is completely fine—staying hydrated actually makes blood collection easier!
Avoid tea, coffee, smoking, and heavy exercise before the test.
Prioritize accuracy with Uno Path Diagnostics & Radiology.
