Albumin
Albumin is a clinical biomarker on the Gastrointestinal panel, reported in g/dL. Standard reference range: 3.6–5.1 g/dL. Functional (optimal) range used by integrative practitioners: 4.1–4.5 g/dL.
What is Albumin?
Albumin is the primary plasma protein produced by the liver, maintaining oncotic pressure and serving as a carrier for hormones, medications, and fatty acids; it is a sensitive marker of nutritional and hepatic status.
Reference ranges
| Range type | Value (g/dL) | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Standard (lab) | 3.6–5.1 | Typical Quest / LabCorp adult reference |
| Functional (optimal) | 4.1–4.5 | Integrative / functional medicine consensus |
How SomaVue interprets Albumin
SomaVue maps every result for Albumin against four clinical lenses — nutrient cofactors, toxin exposure, infection drivers, and circadian/hormonal context — and connects each interpretation to specific peer-reviewed citations. Pre-mapped clinical reasoning and cross-marker pattern detection are available inside the practitioner workspace.
