Biomarkers

3 biomarkers tracked with reference ranges and optimal ranges

Biomarker Category Unit Reference Range Optimal Range
Anion Gap Electrolytes mmol/L 8.0 – 16.0 8.0 – 12.0
Carbon Dioxide Electrolytes mmol/L 22.0 – 29.0 23.0 – 28.0
Phosphorus (serum) Electrolytes mg/dL 2.5 – 4.5 3.0 – 4.2

Understanding Ranges

Reference range — the clinical "normal" range used by labs. Values outside this range are flagged as low or high.

Optimal range — a narrower band associated with better health outcomes in research. Values within reference but outside optimal are marked "suboptimal".

Always consult a healthcare provider for interpretation of your specific results.
