Question 8

What is the effect on human body when Albumin is high?

Accepted Answer

When albumin levels are high the body is usually severely dehydrated.

Question 9

What is an albumin/globulin ratio in the blood?

A high albumin/globulin ratio suggests underproduction of immunoglobulins as may be seen in some genetic deficiencies and in some leukemias. Further, a high A/G ratio can be a sign of disease in your liver, kidney, or intestines. It's also linked to low thyroid activity and leukemia.

Question 10
