A 24-hour urine zinc test measures the total amount of zinc excreted by the body in a full day to help diagnose zinc deficiency or excess. To perform the test, you must collect all urine over a 24-hour period in a single container, with specific instructions often including avoiding certain foods like seafood, and some medications for a few days prior. Results are interpreted by a doctor in the context of your overall health. What the test is for Diagnosing deficiency or excess: The test helps doctors determine if your body has too little or too much zinc. Monitoring treatment: It can be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatments for conditions related to zinc levels, such as Wilson's disease.
