Yes, fasting is often required before a chemistry profile blood test to ensure accurate results. Typically, fasting for 8 to 12 hours is recommended, depending on the specific tests ordered. This helps eliminate any influence of food on the levels of glucose, cholesterol, and other substances measured in the blood. Always follow your healthcare provider's instructions regarding fasting for specific tests.
