You cannot eat or drink anything for 8 to 10 hours before having a folate blood test. This test is done to check for anemia, malnutrition, and to ensure birth defects do not happen to a fetus.
It rather depends on why blood is being drawn?
Twelve hours, according to my cardiologist.
At least 12 hours before getting your blood taken. It is ok to have small sips of water
10 years, no big deal at all
12 hours
Fourteen (14) hours is best for typical blood work.Consider not eating after supper, then skipping breakfast. Often that approaches 14 hours.Keep drinking water during this period as it keeps the blood volume high and makes the vein easier to access.
As long as you don't put sugar or honey in it it'll be ok
that depends how fast you can fast when fasting for a fasting blood test for metabolic functions.

No. Fasting is only required for lab tests which examine lipids, sugars (blood glucose, glycohemoglobin, etc.) and amino acids.
