A member asked:
If i'm supposed to fast for bloodwork and ultrasound to check gallbladder,would taking a probiotic,drinking a lot of water and exercise affect results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Do recommendation: Extreme exercise and lots of water would affect blood results. For most accurate results I would follow fasting instructions, resume exercise and probiotics after the testing.
