A Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP) is a group of blood tests that provides vital information about your body’s chemical balance and metabolism. The BMP typically measures eight components in the blood:
Glucose – Indicates blood sugar levels, important for diagnosing and managing diabetes.
Calcium – Essential for bones, muscles, and nerve function. Abnormal levels may indicate bone, kidney, or thyroid issues.
Sodium, Potassium, and Chloride – These electrolytes help regulate fluid balance, muscle contractions, and nerve signaling. Imbalances can cause dehydration, heart, or kidney problems.
