Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Why is electrolyte balance so critical for athletes? Electrolytes like sodium, potassium, and calcium are electrical charges that regulate muscle contraction, nerve conduction, and fluid balance Sodium imbalance (especially low levels from excessive water intake without salts) can cause a serious condition called hyponatremia, leading to confusion, seizures, and possibly death Low potassium or calcium causes weakness and muscle cramps Accurate monitoring helps adjust hydration and nutrition strategies during training and competition
Sodium imbalance (especially low levels from excessive water intake without salts) can cause a serious condition called hyponatremia, leading to confusion, seizures, and possibly death
Low potassium or calcium causes weakness and muscle cramps
Accurate monitoring helps adjust hydration and nutrition strategies during training and competition
Does elevated liver enzymes (ALT, AST) in athletes always indicate a problem? Not necessarily Intense exercise causes microscopic muscle tears, releasing AST (found in muscles and liver) into the blood ALT may also rise but to a lesser degree Therefore, refraining from intense exercise 72 hours before testing is necessary to distinguish normal muscle-related elevation from true liver issues The pattern (AST higher than ALT) and clinical assessment are important
What is the role of Vitamin D and Zinc in high-level athletic performance? Vitamin D: critical for calcium absorption and bone health (preventing stress fractures), also important for muscle function and immunity, deficiency is common even in athletes Zinc: essential for testosterone production, protein synthesis (muscle building), and the function of over 300 enzymes, athletes lose zinc through sweat, and deficiency can reduce performance and prolong recovery

Normal Levels

Electrolytes (sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride): must be maintained within their narrow precise ranges
Creatinine: may be slightly higher than the average person due to large muscle mass, but its trend should be monitored
Liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP): interpretation should consider abstaining from exercise
Vitamin D: optimal performance level > 40-50 ng/mL
HDL cholesterol: desirable to be high (> 60 mg/dL is excellent)
Results should be interpreted in the context of the athlete (type of sport, training intensity, body weight)

Conditions & Notices

Mandatory fasting: You must fast for 10-12 hours before the sample is taken to ensure accurate lipid and fat results. Water is permitted.
Complete abstinence from exercise: Avoid any athletic training or competition for at least 72 hours (3 days) prior to the test. This is essential to ensure that muscle and liver enzymes and electrolytes return to their baseline levels.
Natural hydration: Drink water as usual the day before, do not over-drink or under-drink significantly.
Morning sample timing: It is preferable to draw the sample in the morning after a good night's sleep.
Stop taking supplements: Stop taking all dietary supplements (especially biotin, electrolyte supplements, vitamins) 5-7 days before the examination after consulting a doctor.
