Bone Markers

Vitamins Parameters

TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone)

TSH is a hormone that regulates thyroid function. Thyroid hormones can affect bone health; hyperthyroidism (too much thyroid hormone) can cause bones to weaken, leading to conditions like osteoporosis.

Vitamin D

This vitamin is critical for bone health as it helps the body absorb calcium from the diet. Low levels of vitamin D can lead to bone disorders.

Albumin

Albumin is a protein in the blood that can affect calcium levels. A significant portion of calcium in the blood is bound to albumin, so changes in albumin levels can affect calcium levels and thus bone health.

ALP (Alkaline Phosphatase)

ALP is an enzyme related to the liver, bile ducts, and bone. High levels can indicate bone growth or healing from a fracture, as well as bone diseases that increase bone turnover.

Magnesium

Magnesium is a key component of bone, and it is necessary for proper bone formation. It also plays a role in converting vitamin D into its active form, which is essential for calcium absorption.

Calcium

This is the primary mineral found in bones and is essential for bone strength and density. A calcium blood test can help determine if levels are adequate for healthy bone maintenance.

FT4 (Free Thyroxine)

FT4 measures the free, or unbound, thyroxine hormone levels in the blood. Thyroxine is another thyroid hormone that, when imbalanced, can have a significant impact on bone turnover and strength.
