My lab report shows high sodium level & low magnesium level.. what should i do to normalize it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need actual results: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Your levels may well be in the normal limits. If you are on a normal diet and are drinking enough water, that should take care of these minerals. If you have any symptoms, you need to consult your doctor.
