Chromium Blood Test for Health Evaluation

The lab analyst measures the level of chromium in a patient blood specimen to evaluate for chromium poisoning or deficiency. Chromium is an essential nutrient that affects carbohydrate, fat, insulin, and protein levels in the body. Low chromium levels increase blood sugar, triglycerides, cholesterol, and increase the patient’s risk for heart disease and diabetes. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
