So what happens if someone eats a piece of bread or a fruit or drink cafe before a blood test
In: 4
Just an inaccurate test result.
Some tests measure the body’s glucose levels which can fluctuate heavily from food intake. So if the test is trying to measure how well the body stores and regulates blood glucose, and eating before it causes a spike, then that changes the results. If someone doesn’t eat for 8 hours, and their blood sugar is still very high, something is likely wrong. Which is what the tests measure.
Same idea for the other tests. Just avoiding uncontrolled spikes due to food.
