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?

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.

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.
