A member asked:
On low carb diet last few bloodwork globulin normal but each time lower 3.0 2.8 now 2.5 what would cause this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not significant: The globulin is something we usually don't have to pay any attention to. It's blood proteins other than albumin, which is the primary blood protein. They do include the gamma globulins that are important to fight infection and can be deficient in very rare diseases. But you are describing a small change that doesnt look important.
