Is a 24 hour urine phosphorus level necessary for the Coimbra protocol or can one go without it?
Could this test be done with a dipstick?

The reason I ask is because I found an online lab that can do most of the lab work direct to consumer instead of dr ordered in the USA, but they don't have the urine phosphorus.AntonioBR wrote:mrtmeo wrote:Is a 24 hour urine phosphorus level necessary for the Coimbra protocol or can one go without it?

Hi mrtmeo,
In every medical appointment the doctor asks for this exam. So, yes, Urine 24 hours Phosphorus is necessary to follow the protocol.
If the patient needs it can be done with a dipstick.
