PLEASE NOTE: We recommend fasting for 8 - 12 hours before your cholesterol test. You may still consume water. In fact, it's better for blood draws if you are well hydrated! Please note: Blood testing can help identify possible contributors to fatigue, but results should always be interpreted alongside sleep, stress, nutrition, exercise, lifestyle and medical history. Further follow-up with a healthcare professional may sometimes be recommended depending on the findings.
