    • QUOTE: Phosphorus is an important element that’s vital to several of the body’s physiological processes. It helps with bone growth, energy storage, and nerve and muscle production. Many foods — especially meat and dairy products — contain phosphorus, so it’s usually easy to get enough of this mineral in your diet.

      Your bones and teeth contain most of your body’s phosphorus. However, some phosphorous is in your blood. Your doctor can assess your blood phosphorus level using a serum phosphorus test.

       Hyperphosphatemia is when you have too much phosphorus in your blood. Hypophosphatemia is the opposite — having too little phosphorus. Various conditions, including chronic alcohol use disorder and vitamin D deficiency, can cause your blood phosphorus level to become too low.

    • QUOTE: Serum phosphorus is measured in milligrams of phosphorus per deciliter of blood (mg/dL). According to Mayo Medical Laboratories, a normal range for adults is generally 2.5 to 4.5 mg/dL.

      The normal range varies slightly depending on your age. It’s natural for children to have higher phosphorus levels because they need more of this mineral to help their bones develop.
